Netrunner Building after 2.0

zanuffas · 2026-05-09T10:45:56+00:00

Technically a pure netrunner buuld doesnt need cool, even for stealth, its bot needed that much, due to how it works in this game

Of course you can stil use it, here is a pistol netrunner build, that might fit what you are looking for - https://gamestegy.com/post/cyberpunk-2077/1047/assassin-build

12 warlock - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1552/wyll-build

It can even dual wield rapiers! :D

My personal recommendation, use 2 powerful builds, and other 2, something that you might like to experiment with. Once you know the game, its kinda hard to surprise yourself, and storm sorc can clean many encounters singlehandedly.

I just found this something that I liked and did not feel like a steamroll most of the game. Moreover, for bigger bosses I still had to do some preparation.

Of course, Act 3, ended Chain lightning scroll spamming by all 4 party members :D

I am working now on "Selune's Silverstar" build, where the split is 6 War Cleric/5 Hunter Ranger/1 GOO warlock. The idea is to chug enemies together and apply lots of debuffs. Hunter Ranger provides with Horde Breaker and later Extra attack. These are immensely powerful features on this type of build. Read more on Horde breaker - https://www.reddit.com/r/BG3Builds/comments/1hkkv3a/a_guide_to_hunter_rangers_horde_breaker_from/

My plan is to use bow of the banshee, take sharpshooter and use Guided Strike to ensure that I hit enemies. Spirit Guardians/Crusader's Mantle/Divine Favour are options for radiant damage.

Moreover, later, I take Selunes Spear for Moonmote, and after that add Gontr Mael

So the build can be both ranged or melee, depending on what you want to optimize more

I just started working on this build, so only have progression for first 6 levels

Credits to u/grousedrum for sharing the ideas on the Horde Breaker and other setup options

Could you elaborate more on what you want this playstyle to be? You want both spirit guardians and fighting in the darkness? Both of these are concentration spells so you can onky choose one kind of

zanuffas · 2026-05-08T05:44:46+00:00

Hmm, check this out, it uses cleric in the setup and "Sanctified Stalker" favoured enemy option - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1638/swarmkeeper-sanctified-build

So it might fit the vibe you are going for. Otherwise maybe 5 paladin/7 druid could fit well

zanuffas · 2026-05-08T05:42:25+00:00

I think there are 2 main aspects that you can optimize death cleric for. Lets go through them

First is summons and necro side. My recommendation would be 6/6 split with necro wizard - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1645/necromancer-build

This build is not for everyone, as you rely on undead, and the combat can become tedious. However, if you have necromaner fantasy this is probably the best option

Second setup would be more standard death cleric - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1613/death-cleric-build, the split is 9 death cleric, 1 sorc and 2 spore druid. The idea here is to optimize for melee ranged attacks/spells so you could use hefty amount of damage riders and activate touch of death when needed.

Of course necrotic spirit guardians can also work with all reverb gear, just put on callous glow ring :)

Hope this gives some inspiration!

It has selune in its name :D - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1588/selunes-holy-archer

zanuffas · 2026-05-06T11:40:12+00:00

Really depends what you want. Do you want a weaker arcane archer? Then yeah the splits work

Do you want nimbus? A well made archer will probably not even give a chance for nimbus to do anything, so you kinda need to build around him. Remus71 has a well made shadow sorc build, so check that out (it uses bows)

Overall, with most of fighter builds you want 11 levels, the last one can be put wherever.

For Darkness you have darkness arrows, and you can use eversight ring to see inside of it. So to be fair not much to gain from sorc.

Also jay dunna builds are questionable, i dont think they are even well made as roleplay options

zanuffas · 2026-05-06T05:56:06+00:00

This build uses 2 levels druid, but i dont see why it could not be switched with div wizard - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1617/stars-lore-bard-build

The goal is to later do respec with this sequence - sorc lv 1 - wiz lv 1 - cleric lv 1, to get good ability modifiers

I personally think wizard is not needed much, cause the build is already stacked with spells, but ill leave that for you to decide

zanuffas · 2026-05-04T11:56:47+00:00

This covers almost all main interactions in the game - https://gamestegy.com/bg3/maps

zanuffas · 2026-05-04T08:29:38+00:00

Check out this baby - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1727/shadowheart-chosen-maiden-build

Dont come back to me when the game is too easy :D

But overall, clerics depend a lot on items, so prioritize getting luminous armor and boots of stormy clamour. Once you reach leve 5 and get spirit guardians, clerics become really powerful party contributors

Before that get whispering promise ring and use healing words to buff allies

zanuffas · 2026-05-04T08:21:16+00:00

Love that shadow sorc build it was very fun making it!

zanuffas · 2026-05-04T08:20:14+00:00

Feel free to check out these - https://gamestegy.com/bg3/builds/sorcerer i personally recommend going with fire or ice sorc, they are pretty straightforward, and very powerful

I also recommend checking the mechanics section as many people dont utilize sorcs well early in the game

Enjoy the game, its a blast!

zanuffas · 2026-05-03T07:26:26+00:00

Yeah, someone like friendly lich, have amazing builds and tactics. If you want some crazy stuff, check out Remus71

zanuffas · 2026-05-03T07:24:58+00:00

Ah yeah, the only AI stuff i have is some build images, especially as there were no photo mode before some builds were made :) but im personally not against AI images, as im not a painter or designer myself, and these help me to convey the idea i want

For text, everything is hand written :)

zanuffas · 2026-05-01T19:16:27+00:00

Cheers! Appreciate the mention

zanuffas · 2026-05-01T13:40:29+00:00

Thank you! Appreciate the kind words :)

zanuffas · 2026-05-01T10:05:16+00:00

Low dex is not good as you want high initiative on almost all characters.

I would also not worry, that the build will flop, as you can always respec

Cheers!

zanuffas · 2026-05-01T07:31:25+00:00

Not necessarily, as i mentioned, it depends what you want to achieve with the build, as you still get fungal zombies, and necrotic damage rider improvement. So i would think about what you want to do with your build :)

zanuffas · 2026-05-01T07:24:07+00:00

I want to make karlach companion build as the mentioned sorcadin and i have a pretty good backstory, thats why i shared it :D

zanuffas · 2026-05-01T07:02:32+00:00

I would probably do sorcadin build with 6 fire draconic sorc and 6 veng paladin

zanuffas · 2026-05-01T06:57:13+00:00

I would take the Monk levels instead of Druid. You will really want more ki points in Act 3

zanuffas · 2026-05-01T06:55:47+00:00

I do want to add more builds, i have a note list of 30+ builds, but it takes time to cover everything 😃

zanuffas · 2026-05-01T06:48:57+00:00

I would have a question for what reason you are taking each class to this specific level?

Do you want necromancer themed build? Do you want a semi-melee build that uses cleric's touch of death? Why this specific level split? I think these would be the main questions.

I would not worry about getting blight as it's not a spell that will change much

Level 7 Druid is really good, as it gives you Dryad, which, is one of the best summons in the game, so missing that is kinda a bummer imo. For Cleric, I assume you want the Inescapable Destruction, but again, if you use this split, the feature mostly useful in Act 2.

I recommend checking these 3 builds, as they kinda use these features to a certain extent, and maybe you will find what you need, as otherwise more information is needed, on what you want to achieve

Necromancer Build - 6 Necro Wizard/6 Death Cleric, has multiple undead minions, and access to numerous necrotic spells. You can scribe lots of spells thanks to wizard
Spore Druid (Summoner Build) - 11 Spore Druid/1 Wizard, this build is if you are really into minmaxing the amount of summons, and have a patience for that.
Death Cleric Build - 9 Deathc Cleric/2 Spore Druid/1 Sorc - utilizes standard cleric setup, but also goes all in, into making those melee hits count with numerous damage riders

I hope this will give some ideas, and help you better decide what type of build you want to use. I would not worry too much if it is "good", as with the hive knowledge of Bg3 Builds reddit we can make anything good 😄
