So been thinking of what to play for my first run through of Baldurs Gate 3 when released. I will be streaming it, so looking for something entertaining, I I think I have come up with something that sings… :)

Half-Elf Drow rogue ( to get the drow hate, or maybe dragonborn… not decided fully) for the first 2 levels then switching to Bard. Or maybe Bard then switch to Rogue… not sure yet. Only 2 levels or Rogue in total. Of course there is no other choice but going with Dark Urge!!!

What is your first Character going to be, have you decided yet?

    Since they got rid of Exhaustion from Frenzy I plan to run Karlach as a Berserker 9/Thief 3 with Great Weapon Master. You lose the Sneak Attack, but the chance of 40 damage per round generally beats a pretty certain 7 in my books. Plus there are some pretty good Greataxes and a Maul that does thunder damage when you jump.

      Absolutely! My theorycrafting is more about realising certain fantasies than pure min-max, but for big damage numbers your build is ludicrous. Absolute whirlwind of death - and probably a reason why the thief’s ability should be retuned 😅
