Insta-Kill Trick: Throwing Your Way to Victory
The first build discussed in the video is a unique trick that allows you to instantly kill non-hostile characters. By throwing non-aggressive items at NPCs, you can lower their strength using the Ability Drain power. Pair this with the Shadow Wraith summon, which has the Strength Drain ability, and you can reduce an enemy’s strength below zero, causing them to instantly die from atrophy. This build offers a fun and unconventional way to dispatch enemies.
Mixed Wizard Barbarian: Breaking the Rules
The second build focuses on mixing the Wizard and Barbarian classes, which are traditionally incompatible due to the Barbarian’s rage preventing spellcasting. However, by building around the abilities that do work together, such as the Wild Heart Barbarian subclass and the Draconic Bloodline Wizard subclass, you can create a unique playstyle that offers both tankiness and spellcasting capabilities. This build showcases the versatility and creativity that can be achieved in Baldur’s Gate 3.
Berserker Paladin: Unleashing Devastating Smite Attacks
The third build combines the Berserker Barbarian subclass and the Oath of Vengeance Paladin subclass to maximize damage output. By utilizing the Barbarian’s rage and the Paladin’s Divine Smite and Inquisitor’s Might abilities, you can deal massive amounts of damage in a short amount of time. This build offers a high-risk, high-reward playstyle that is perfect for players who enjoy fast-paced combat.
Banishing Smite: The Ultimate Melee Damage
The fourth build revolves around Banishing Smite, a spell that has the potential to deliver the highest singular hit of melee weapon damage in the game. By multiclassing as a Swords Bard and a Vengeance Paladin, and utilizing specific items and buffs, you can unleash devastating damage on your enemies. This build showcases the power of well-executed combos and precise gear choices.
Infinite Stealth: The Master of Shadows
The final build discussed in the video is an updated version of an earlier concept: the infinite stealth build. By combining the Assassin Rogue subclass and the Archfey Warlock subclass, you can achieve permanent stealth and continuously benefit from the Assassin’s bonuses. This build offers unparalleled stealth capabilities and allows you to operate in the shadows with ease.
These five builds provide a glimpse into the diverse and exciting gameplay possibilities in Baldur’s Gate 3. Whether you’re a fan of unconventional strategies, powerful damage output, or stealthy approaches, there is a build that suits your playstyle. So why not give them a try and see how they enhance your gaming experience?
