<br>As with other RPGs similar to Dungeons & Dragons , it makes sense for Baldur’s Gate 3 players to want to prioritize an Ability Array that focuses on the Bard’s greatest strengths: that being Charisma and Dexterity. With the above considerations taken into account, here is an ideal setup for an Ability Array that maximizes the Bard’s performance [https://www.baldursgate3fans.com/articles/the-pixel-pack-revolution-gaming-s-human-soul-versus-ai-s-plastic-heart.html Ai in gaming] the early game:<br><br>As you level up in one of these BG3 Fighter subclasses, you will gain more abilities that are unique to your subclass choice. Your choice of Fighter subclass can be changed by speaking with Withers, but you will start at Level 1 and have to make your BG3 Fighter build from scratch.<br><br>The max level in Baldur's Gate 3 is Level 12, and most of the time, each level you gain will grant something new for your Fighter build. In character creation, you gain the basics for the Fighter class, then steadily gain Feat Choices, new spells and abilities, subclass features, and increase your Proficiency Bonus.<br><br>When it comes to multiclassing, Transmutation Wizards are uniquely suited to acting as non-combat support by crafting potions, using Rogue or Bard levels to gain medicine expertise and more efficiently double all potion production. They can also make use of levels in Fighter or Cleric for access to medium and heavy armor, much like the other Wizard subclasses.<br><br>The best Sorcerer companions in BG3 are Shadowheart as your primary Support party member, Lae'Zel as a Fighter in melee range tanking blows, and Astarion as a sneaky melee party member who can be useful out of combat too.<br><br>Duergar also gain the Dwarven Resilience passive alongside Duergar Resilience, granting Advantage on saving throws against Illusions, Charm, Paralysis, and Poison. The Darkvision can be nice, too, though the reduction in movement distance is a notable downside of the race. Most races can move at least 9m on a turn, while Dwarves can only go 7.5m.<br><br>Studded Leather Armour +2 (14 AC + DEX, Light Armour, Rare): Upon reaching Level 9, this gear can give a significant advantage to Bards who prefer to stay at any range in combat. Its -1 Bludgeoning Damage Taken buff with +1 Initiative can help Bards get an edge in battle, especially if they're able to cast their Spells first.<br><br>The Wizard in Baldur's Gate 3 can choose to specialize in any one of the eight schools of magic: Abjuration, Conjuration, Divination, Enchantment, Evocation, Necromancy, Illusion, and Transmutation. Each subclass choice offers the Wizard abilities relating to their mastery of a chosen school and bonuses when using spells that match their school. This allows players to choose which spell schools they want to get the most out of with that character and is especially useful when scribing spells into the spellbook from scrolls.<br><br>If you are dead set on including a character in your party, simply talk to Withers to respec them to one of the optimal Warlock companion classes listed above. This way, you won't miss out on that character's questline, and you won't have to suffer from an improperly balanced party.<br><br>The Fighter is a class that's meant to be played up-close-and-personal. Whether that's through sheer brutality or magical assistance is up to the player – no matter their choice of Subclass, Fighters gain a few abilities that set them apart from other melee-oriented classes like the Barbarian.<br><br>At level five, the Wizard gains an extra Bladesong use per long rest, going from two to three. Then, level 6 Bladesinging Wizards receive Extra Attack, allowing them to attack twice with their weapon of choice. At level nine, the Wizard gets one more Bladesong use per long rest, bringing their total uses per long rest to four. Finally, at level ten, they get Song of Defense, allowing them to spend a spell slot to reduce incoming damage by five multiplied by the level of the spell slot. This can be used to reduce or even nullify incoming damage.<br><br>In Act 1 , which typically brings players up to around Level 5 , you will be able to choose your Fighter Subclass (Battle Master), your Fighting Style (Great Weapon), a few Battle maneuvers, and a Feat.<br><br>There are a total of three BG3 subclasses Sorcerer players can try out, each of which focuses on different aspects of the class, and offers a selection of unique skills, proficiencies, and other features. As you level up in one of these BG3 Sorcerer subclasses, you will gain more abilities that are unique to your subclass choice.<br><br>Assuming players aren't taking levels in Fighter, Sorcerer, or Cleric, their top priority as an Abjuration Wizard should be improving their AC. In Act 1, players can grab the Ring of Protection in Act 1 by helping Mol steal the Idol at the Emerald Grove, collect the Bracers of Defense from the Apothecary's Cellar in the Blighted Village, and then purchase the Cloak of Protection from Talli at the Last Light Inn in Act 2. While at the Inn, buy the Evasive Shoes from Mattis for another +1 AC. These will provide +5 AC total, which raises the Wizard's AC to 18 when using Mage Armor even if they haven't invested in Dexterity (Important note here: They should absolutely invest in Dexterity for even better results.) If using heavy Armor, players can still grab the Ring, Boots, and Cloak for +3 AC. (Unfortunately, the Bracers only work on Unarmored Characters)<br>
