Paladins and Warlocks pair together incredibly well and the Oath of the Ancients is a solid choice for players that want some support and control utility in their kit. By grabbing Pact of the Blade it's possible to run a Paladin/Warlock with Charisma as their main stat for spellcasting and attacks, leaving plenty of spare points for boosting Constitution for extra HP or Dexterity for extra AC.

The main benefits of Half-Orcs in BG3 are these two passives, called Savage Attacks and Relentless Endurance. Savage Attacks increases damage dealt by Critical Hits, while Relentless Endurance prevents Fighters from going down when they get to 0 HP once per Long Rest. For this Circle of the Moon build, which capitalizes on the Druid's abilities in melee combat, Half-Orcs offer the most impactful racials.

However, if the Arcane lifestyle doesn't feel right for you, the Guild Artisan arguably offers the best gameplay improvements for Wizards. The Guild Artisan background grants proficiency in Insight and Persuasion, the latter of which Wizards don't usually have access to on character creation.

Act 3 offers some incredibly powerful weapons and items for a Vengeance Paladin. If you're using a two-handed weapon to maximize your damage, you could pick up Balduran's Giantslayer from the Dragon's Sanctum. This incredible sword doubles the bonus damage granted by your Strength Modifier whenever it connects, while also allowing you to increase in size (gaining temporary hitpoints, boosted damage, and advantage on Strength Checks and Saving Throws) once per short rest. If you're playing as a Githyanki, or respecced Lae'zel into a Vengeance Paladin, then the Silver Sword of the Astral Plane is also a good choice. It grants additional psychic damage on hit while also providing advantage on Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma Saving Throws. It also gives resistance to psychic damage, immunity to the "Charmed" status, and the special attack "Soulbreaker" to stun enemies.

These allow the Berserker to perform an additional attack or Throw a nearby object/creature, respectively, and each only uses a Bonus Action. This allows the Berserker to dish out extra damage on every turn while raging, making them an excellent choice for players who want to prioritize damage output.

In baldur's gate 3 Bladesinger build Gate 3 , a Paladin is a warrior empowered by their adherence to a sacred oath. Be it to protect the innocent as a Knight in Shining Armor, upholding the ideals of protecting Life and Nature, or commitment to Justice and Retribution, the Paladin is defined by their Oath in many ways. Each Oath serves both gameplay and narrative purpose, with Paladins who break their Oath during gameplay becoming a different subclass known as the "Oathbreaker."


A great part about a D&D campaign is that the stories can be whatever players want, unlike video games that need to adhere to certain algorithms and get as many players hooked as possible to avoid having poor sales and the like. So, it's refreshing to see video games like Tyranny where the player doesn't need to necessarily take on the role of a good


Navigating the world of Morrowind is far from easy, with players having to follow directions to reach certain areas instead of just relying on a map marker. It's also important to decide a character's predominant skills early on so that they can level up efficiently

This table displays the best Wizard build spells you should have equipped and in your Spellbook at these level brackets, whether from choices made while leveling or by learning them from a Scroll. These abilities synergize well with the Evocation Wizard build playstyle and mostly include straight-up damaging spells, ways to CC and debuff enemies, and spells that alter the environment to set up powerful elemental combos or provide a barrier against attacks.

Their other leveling choices make them both a controlling force in melee combat and a powerful support from a distance, though most of one's time should be spent on maximizing damage output while in Wild Shape.

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 Wizard build. In character creation, you gain the basics for the Wizard class, then steadily gain Feat Choices, new spells and abilities, subclass features, and increase your Proficiency Bonus.

When it comes down to it, the Githyanki are the best Wizard race BG3 players can choose because it saves players from using Spell Slots, and grants important proficiencies that greatly improve the Wizard's survivability.

This section covers the best equipment for Circle of the Moon Druids in BG3 across all three Acts. Some pieces from early Acts may still be powerful in later ones, though, and will remain equipped through several Acts.

One of the best features of the Wizard class is its ability to learn abilities from scrolls, but this ability becomes more powerful when paired with another Prepared Spellcaster class, like the Cleric. This multiclass Wizard build is not one that focuses on the Wizard, as only one level is needed to learn from scrolls. Instead, it opts for 11 levels in Cleric, leaving just one in Wizard.
