Baldur's Gate Baldur's Gate 3 - tips, tricks & helpful information

[Salvo]

Spirit Guardians still OP confirmed. It's a higher damaging Cloud of Daggers that only hurts enemies and applies to everyone your Cleric runs past. What's not to love

Not a surprise, it's one of the highest rated spells for a reason.

Do i left the default stats then in you opinion guys?

No. That’s what I just wrote :S

You want me to draw you up a line? Tell us what you’re playing specifically

 

[Jermu]

dump cha would be my choice for wiz, 17 int 16 con 14-15 dex

But if he's playing resisting durge that's dicey at best

hence why I asked for specifics

 

[Grunker]

Also "Resilient: Constitution" will be a good pickup for most casters, incentivizing odd Con

 

[Barbarian]

Can you pick it twice? E.g: once for con at 4th level and again for wis at 8th

Durge saves are mostly wis

probably not at least not in 5e

 

[Grunker]

I'm planning to try - I'll let you know.

Yes, that's exactly my point.

Why is it that I have more fun discussing games than actually playing them?

 

[MerchantKing]

I just discovered a game breaking tip. The most powerful strategy

Gamebreaking tip -- do not click if you don't want to spoil

is to uninstall the game and play a good game instead.

Suppose it was only a matter of time before the shitpoating founds its way here as well

Some Feats seem absolutely huegstrong, like Tavern Brawler for a STR based monk.

Putting the game on the steam store was shitposting in itself.

Tavern Brawler would be worth it even for the strength doubling alone, but hilariously it ALSO gives +1STR or DEX even though it isn't documented. By far the most overpowered feat available.

We can use Cat Familiars "MEOW" to lure shopkeepers, NPCs for stealing their things.

Isn't Cutting Words supposed to penalise enemy saving throws? It states that it penalises Ability Checks in the description.

It's just bad wording. You can use it as a rection when an enemy clears a save by 6 or less. It's extremely fun for DC casting. Feels like I'm getting revenge for all the times my table's bard did it against my mobs.

That's pretty cool, alright. Hmm.

I hear there are mucho build enabling items in act 2 though, so we'll prolly all be respeccing anyway :D

 

[Jermu]

returning pike after throwing it from inventory replaces main melee weapon pretty much useless item

 

[Turisas]

Equip the ring and keep throwing it.

Seems like Haste is still estupido, Yosharian

I like what they did to Call Lightning though. It's still crap, but at least it's less crap than before :D

No Eldritch Blast on Magical Secrets is Vicious Mockery is great, but my spellcaster Bard having no reliable autoattack is getting old. Guess 1 level in lock is the answer, but I don't want to delay spell levels

On the flip side, Counterspell, Haste and Spirit Guardians are all in. So the Lock level is probably better in any case.

What are optimal stats for gnome sorc? Default or?
