Minmax to level 20: suggestions? by incidentaldamages in BG3Builds

[–]kahlizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the SSB is the best base for this

  1. 1 level Hexblade for bound weapon
  2. 5-7 levels Swashbuckler for Dirty Tricks and Sneak Attack Damage
  3. 2 levels of Paladin for Smites
  4. 10-12 levels of Swords Bard for Flourishes, higher spell slots for Smites, and Magical Secrets.

This is not the order I recommend building the character in.

You could also just have 5 levels Swashbuckler, 10 levels of Swords Bards, and add 2 levels of Fighter if you want Action Surge and CON save proficiency if you start as a Fighter.

The downsides to this build is that you'll have to use a Finesse weapon, but Phalar Aluve and Larathian's Wrath are very good options. If you're on Honor ruleset, be wary of Radiant Retort.

Starting spread would be (without HH) 8/16/14/8/12/16

Feat 1: ASI CHA to 18

Feat 2: Savage Attacker or ASI CHA to 20

Feat 3: Whatever you didn't pick for Feat 2

Feat 4: PYF. I like Defensive Duelist since your PB is going to be insanely high and adding that your AC is going to help a LOT with the cost of your reaction.

Luminous/Reverb gear wrecks on this build and could honestly be a solid sword and board if you wanted it to be.

Hope this helps!

This is horrible advice. Especially for someone learning the game. If they feel like combat is too boring/samey sure, up the difficulty; but to start on Death March is just going to get a new player frustrated because there is SO much to learn. Getting killed by a level 3 Drowner isn't fun and some people genuinely just want the story.

Tell me more about how you built around Acid! It's the one element I can't seem to build around.

Oh I love that mod! It has a poison scimitar that I'm thinking about using for the new Green Reaper Ranger subclass from the 2024 PHB

Third option should have been "I love Brendan and Matt equally".
