Overall, the Hexblade Warlock is easily the best option for a Warlock focusing on melee combat, especially when paired with the Pact of the Blade to gain extra attacks at level 5. Their ability to utilise several useful combat spells, like Wrathful Smite, Shield, and Elemental Weapon, along with their ability to wear medium armour and use shields, makes them uniquely suited to fighting on the front lines. Their lower health pool when compared to most melee classes is offset by their Spectres, who can help to draw some attention off them, and their access to defensive spells like Blink and the aforementioned shield.

baldur's gate 3 druid circle of stars build Gate 3 's Barbarian Class is focused on strength and durability first and foremost, with access to the highest base HP of any class alongside abilities like Rage to allow them to withstand incoming damage and dish out a ton of damage themselves. Each of the Barbarian's subclasses are focused on how they fight and any additional power sources that fuel their rage. The Berserker replaces Rage with Frenzy for greater offensive benefits, the Wildheart takes primal animal aspects to gain additional powers while raging, and the Wild Magic Barbarian wields chaotic magic to strengthen their rage and fortify their body. Barbarians choose their subclass when they reach level three.

At level one, they also have the additional spell options "Faerie Fire" and "Sleep," allowing them to outline targets to grant advantage or just put their enemies to sleep. At level three, they can also choose "Phantasmal Force" and "Calm Emotions," letting them deal repeating psychic damage that will shift damage type to match the last attack that hit the target and allow them to immunize themselves and their allies from being charmed or frightened. Level five adds the options of "Plant Growth" and "Blink," letting them create difficult terrain and flicker out of reality after their turn to evade attacks (sometimes Fey Magic is fickle.)


Tiny Tina's Wonderland feels like being guided through a D&D story by an unhinged DM who isn't afraid to throw some curveballs players' way. The weapon selections are diverse, and all fantasy-themed spins on popular guns. The fights range from popping kobold heads with sniper rifles to downing literal dragons with assault rifles and special abilit
