<br>Players of classic CRPGs know the sheer intensity of the storylines in the Baldur’s Gate series, making Baldur’s Gate 3 a much-awaited sequel for fans of narrative-focused games. This time around, players of the Baldur’s Gate title get stuck in the middle of an ongoing mind-flayer invasion of Faerun, with only their chosen Class and skillset as a means to fight this seemingly insurmountable threat.<br><br>In [https://baldursgate3fans.com/articles/baldur-s-gate-3-photo-mode-revolution-epic-selfies-mustache-mayhem-unleashed.html Baldur's Gate 3 Photo Mode] Gate 3 , Rogue builds can be enhanced further with the use of specific consumables. Certain potions, like the Elixir of Heroism, will grant combat-oriented bonuses for this best Rogue build, while others, like the Potion of Invisibility, will enhance the Rogue's ability to stay stealthy no matter the circumstances.<br><br>Finally, at tenth level, Giant Barbarians gain access to Mighty Impel. This allows them to throw any creature that is medium-sized or smaller, regardless of their weight, as a bonus action while enraged. The throw range is fixed at 9m/30ft, which usually results in better range when throwing heavy creatures (unless your character has used an Elixir of Cloud Giant Strength to reach 27 Strength).<br><br>At sixth level, Giant Barbarians gain Elemental Cleaver. This allows them to add acid, cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage to their weapon while raging, and also adds the Thrown property to their weapon when used. Additionally, weapons under the effect of Elemental Cleaver will be returned to your hand immediately after being thrown, allowing for greater flexibility in throwing weapon builds. The elemental damage behaves like a damage rider when throwing the weapon, meaning the elemental damage is boosted independently by things like the Rage buff, Tavern Brawler, or the Ring of Flinging. This allows you to achieve much higher damage than expected with weapons enhanced using Elemental Cleaver.<br><br>Players looking for more consistent damage, as opposed to the extreme highs and lows of Glaives and Greataxes, should pick up a greatsword. Excellent options in Act 1 are the Everburn Blade, Svartlebee's Woundseeker, and Jorgoral's Greatsword. The Soulbreaker Greatsword and Sussur Greatsword are also decent picks, with the former being especially valuable if playing a Githyanki. During Act 3, non-gith characters should grab the Sword of Chaos or Balduran's Giantslayer for best results, while Githyanki should instead obtain the Silver Sword of the Astral Plane.<br><br>Another good option is the Luminous Set, consisting of the Luminous Armor, Luminous Gloves and Coruscation Ring. When paired with a certain mace we'll discuss later, this can make it even harder for enemies to hit you by reducing their attack rolls.<br><br>When it comes to equipment, the Oath of Vengeance Paladin might consider grabbing the Gloves of Heroism, hidden in the Tollhouse in Act 1. These will provide the Heroism buff whenever the Paladin uses a "Channel Oath" ability. Players can then grab the Helmet Of Smiting from the Selunite Outpost (also in Act 1), and purchase the Armor of Devotion from Roah when they relocate to Moonrise in Act 2. The former provides temporary hit points whenever you apply a status effect using a smite spell ( Searing Smite inflicting a burn effect over time, for example), while the latter allows the Paladin to restore a Channel Oath charge at will once per long rest.<br><br>Dipping into Fighter is always an ideal move for any Class, especially the Bard whose slate of utility abilities could use combat enhancements by this Multiclass. Thanks to the Fighter’s more aggressive kit, a Bard can get into any position without worrying about survivability. Here are things to take note of when proceeding with a Fighter Multiclass as a Bard:<br>Gloomstalker Rangers are, like Rogues, masters of stealth combat with a unique set of abilities and sneaky ways to maneuver the battlefield – but it doesn't have access to Sneak Attack. By multiclasing into the Gloomstalker subclass as a Rogue, players are able to take advantage of Sneak Attack alongside the Gloomstalker's powerful stealth abilities.<br><br>As mentioned briefly in the previous section, Rangers can get hold of the exceptional scimitar "Belm" in Act 3. This can be found in Jaheira's Basement, under Elerrathin's Home in the Lower City. Belm is a legendary scimitar that can perform Whirlwind Attack, making an attack against all enemies within range, as an action once per short rest. The wielder can also perform an extra attack as a bonus action, which calculates its attack and damage modifier using the stats of the weapon in the wielder's main hand. This makes it tremendously powerful when used in conjunction with a main-hand weapon that deals more damage, like Phalar Aluve or Larethian's Wrath. If focusing on strength over dexterity but still using the dual-wielder feat, you could use the Nylruna trident (obtained by winning the jackpot from Akabi at the carnival, getting teleported to the jungle, and then picking the lock on the chest near the portal back to the Carnival) or Voss' Silver Sword (stolen from Kithrak Voss via pickpocketing or murder) in the main hand to great effect. The aforementioned trident is also excellent for adding some range to a Strength-focused Ranger Build.<br>

All Wizards get access to a list of ridiculously useful out-of-combat spells, but Evocation Wizards specifically hone in on their ability to dish out massive damage in a short amount of time. All Wizards suffer from the lack of easily rechargeable spell slots, but Evocation Wizards can put these limited slots to good use – plus, Arcane Recovery can help when a Long Rest isn't possible.

The Berserker Subclass pairs exceptionally well with the "Gloves of Uninhibited Kushigo", which boost the damage dealt by improvised and thrown weapons. Used in conjunction with Enraged Throw, this can allow the Berserker to further dish out damage using whatever's close to hand. all Dice Skins bg3 Barbarian Subclasses will also get plenty of use out of the "Wrath" magic items, which allows them to build up a stacking damage bonus by taking damage and raging.

But aside from useful racial spells, Githyanki give another important benefit to Wizards: armor proficiencies.
