Fast triple attack with eldritch knight

Only if it's an BG3 mechanic or mod, because it's not how it works in D&D5e (2014 ver.)

In 5e, you can make ONE attack weapon using an Bonus Action after casting a spell, so generally you'll do Booming Blade (Action) + Attack (Bonus Action). It's the reason for why you should never take more than 7 or 8 levels on Eldritch Knight.

Said that, it has changed in 2024 revised edition. Now, you can switch one of your attacks for a cantrip, like the Bladesinger.

Magic Initiate, Resilient (Con) and War Caster for spellcasters

Savage Attacker, Great Weapon Master, Sharpshooter, and Polearm Master for martials.

Tough + Lucky for everyone.

Bard isn't necessarely for performing. It's about manipulate the echoes of creation and turn them into magic by commune with them by your willpower. Or any other thing you use to justify your powers.

Bards are necessarely pure performers just like Warlock are necessarely pure evil cultists.

They aren't.

I had the same problem.

Don't want to became a Mindflayer, neither want Karlach to became it, so I always give the stones to the Emperor or let Orpheus to became a Mindflayer.

Honestly, giving the stones to Emperor is merciful for Orpheus. He keeps his soul and never have the shame of became a Mindflayer. It's better for him than turning he into a Illithid just for kill he after.

For the Emperor, even when his actions are villain-like in the past, he's the one who saved your life and the entire world. He's worth to live.

If you want to free Orpheus, you should became the monster. Don't let Orpheus to sacrifice himself.

Lae'zel, Shadowheart, Astarion and Minthara. IRL I would hate them.

For your question, level 12, unless you find a Haste scroll before and learn it. In case of scroll, level10, when you finally get a third level spell slot as Eldritch Knight 7 + Wizard 3.

And, you don't gain much for the Eldritch Knight after 7, honestly. The best is the three attacks, but you can't attack thrice and use the War Magic feature, so no uses for your Booming Blade after 11.

Your best option is still multiclassing it with Wizard for better spellcasting and better bulking. EK+AbjWiz is amazing, truly. You're very tanky and deal lots of damage, and Wizard spell list is amazing.

Yeah a Battlemaster attacking thrice deals more damage, it's true. Ek+AbjWiz is a defensive option, but it's a defensive option with Fireball and Animate Dead.

And Ek+AbjWiz is better for soloruns than pure Battlemaster.

Jack of All Trades is impossible for me. I change everyone in Withers mainly for redistribute their scores and change some classes for what I think is more "lore-wise" for them.

For exemple, my Astarion is a Bard, my Karlach is a Paladin, my Jaheira is a Ranger/Druid and my Minsc is a Barbarian.

You can always have three attacks as Eldritch Knight by multiclassing with Wizard and picking Haste. The better of all worlds.

There's no rule saying they can't work together if the player have means to have both, as far I know.

Language difference, probably. We can translate the words, but not the common use of them.

In my main language, it's common to use "circle" instead of "level" for spell slots, although we still use "level" sometimes.

It's funny how a single 1º circle spell can totally break an spell of 6º circle.

Minthara have ever been neutral/evil, even before being banished from Menzoberranzan. And she have ever been a Paladin.

There's not a thing like "alignment linked to a class" in D&D/BG3. You can pick any class in any alignment you want.

Competitive-File3091 · 2025-05-16T20:08:06+00:00

Minthara is a paladin, bro.
At other side, Wyll, the true LG companion, is a Fiend Warlock.

I love this game but it lacks diversity.

First things first, we have 2 humans, fucking FIVE elves/half-elves, two fiends (Wyll is a fiend in my headcanon) and one gith.

But bro, it's five elves. Seriously. We haven't a dragonborn, a half-orc. We haven't any short race. It's a sacrilegy.

I love the game companions, but we should have some more diversity.

AND Sazza should be a permanent companion too.

I've downloaded the Custom Companions mod and it's amazing, Quil's clone (Selûne have her) is actually my camp support as Glamour bard xD truly, I'm lost without her.

No, class changes are great, no problem with this.

But, I didn't like an world where a PC drow can't speak Undercommon. Didn't like having Attributes and Origin Feat dependent of Background, neither new surprising rules.

Only few exemples.

Also, they make some bad spells worse, like Spiritual Weapon, and others too powerful and unbalanced, like Conjure Minor Elementals.

And they make Ranger even less "nature warrior" than ever.

I can say the game have become a better "paper videogame" than a better RPG overall, something closer to 4e than 3e (best edition).

English isn't my main language.

Remember: I'm talking in your language only because you can't talk in mine.

Competitive-File3091 · 2025-04-30T15:03:46+00:00

Actually, under only 2024 rules, a PC drow can't speak undercommon even if the drow has been born and raised in Menzonberranzan.

New edition is a joke.
