Level 6 gives you access to "Accursed Spectre" , which allows you to raise an allied spectre from a slain enemy who was under the effects of Hexblade's Curse. Depending on the size of the enemy, you'll get a Feeble Spectre, Mundane Spectre, or Primordial Spectre. Larger Spectres have a few extra skills, and all Spectres act as useful allies in combat who can teleport to cursed targets.
In Baldur's Gate 3 , some classes don't have many choices to make while leveling thanks to the lack of spells, like the Rogue or Monk. Warlocks are not like other spellcasters in BG3 because they have limited spell slots that refresh every short rest instead of long one, and are mostly reliant on Cantrips which can be empowered with Eldritch Invocations.
Great Old One Warlocks (sometimes called "Goolocks" by D&D players) make their pact with eldritch beings in the Far Realms whose goals are inscrutable and alien. At level one, a Goolock gains the power "Mortal Reminder," which causes them to frighten the target and all nearby enemies for a turn when they land a critical hit. This can be great for weakening enemy groups, though since it triggers only on critical hits, it can't be relied upon.
If you are dead set on including a character in your party, simply talk to Withers to respec them to one of the optimal Druid 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.
Clerics of the Life Domain are likely what many players first think of when they hear the word "Cleric", wielding powerful restorative and curative abilities to keep their allies alive and in the fight. At level 1 they gain heavy armor proficiency to help keep them alive, and also gain "Disciple of Life." This ability causes all healing spells they cast to heal an extra 2+Spell Level HP. For example, this means a level 1 Cure Wounds spell would heal an extra 3HP.
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.
A good alternative to the Half-Orc is the Githyanki, which gain Githyanki Psyonics to further enhance their ability to control the battlefield (and jump around from enemy to enemy as if on a trampoline).
Level seven offers "Dominate Beast" and "Evard's Black Tentacles," allowing them to turn animal enemies to their side and brutally restrain their foes with conjured tendrils. At Level nine, they can get "Dominate Person" and "Telekinesis," letting them manipulate humanoids and throw people and objects around freely.
Though Warlocks only have a few spell slots for the majority of the game, these slots uniquely refresh with either a Short or Long Rest. It doesn't mean BG3 Warlock builds can be totally carefree when it comes to slinging spells in combat, but it does keep Warlocks going longer than classes that fully rely on their Spell Slots, no matter how many are available.

Fiend Warlocks made a pact with an entity known for corrupting and destroying and often served those ends through their actions, intentionally or otherwise. Fiend Warlocks immediately receive the power "Dark One's Blessing," which allows them to receive HP equal to their Charisma modifier plus their level whenever they reduce a foe to 0 HP. This helps keep the Fiend's health topped off and allows them greater survivability.

At Level 2, all Warlocks get to choose two Eldritch Invocations, unique abilities that can grant passive or active skills. At Level 2, only a few Eldritch Invocations are available to choose from, but as Warlocks level up more powerful options become available.
It's a good idea to have one or two melee-focused party members, a perfect slot for the Fighter Class to fill in. The best Fighter build in BG3 is one that takes the class' melee prowess and turns it into a close-quarters devastator via the Battle Master subclass.
Draconic Bloodline is the first of three options available to Sorcerers in the game and is technically several similar options. Players may choose a specific dragon species as their bloodline, receiving elemental resistances and abilities accordingly. For example, a Red Dragon bloodline would offer resistance to fire. Players will also gain abilities that strengthen damage dealt by spells that match their bloodline element and automatically learn a spell corresponding to their chosen dragon t
