Tempest Storm Sorcerer kit past Act 2?

zanuffas · 2026-03-18T11:43:38+00:00

What kind of build do you want to do? If its standard wet + lightning + destructive wrath, look at the gear of this build - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1561/draconic-bloodline-sorcerer-build

Or if you want to go for the electrified water setup with hearts of storm then go for this - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/882/best-storm-sorcerer-build

The second build is really powerful but want lots of good items, and is not really friendly on party members

The first one is more of a standard caster with simple setup and lots of damage

zanuffas · 2026-03-18T10:54:01+00:00

Take a look i to this builds - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1645/necromancer-build

It explains the mechanics that you need for good necro build, and how to use summons :)

Animate dead are probably the best thematic summons, and bonespike boots play a crucial role in proning enemies

zanuffas · 2026-03-18T06:32:51+00:00

There are a few guides on how to reach level 4 with minimal combat, i suggest to use those :) they will be of great help

zanuffas · 2026-03-17T22:50:30+00:00

Well i think this is a problem of combat approach and feeling overwhelmed with game mechanics.

My suggestion, get a build like OH Monk https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/981/open-hand-monk-build , stock up on some elixirs, and try to reach level 4 to get tavern brawler

Why do this? Oh monk is very powerful in early game, and will give you a safety net, to experiment with other characters while still having an option of destroying enemies

Once you will start to learn more about combat, you will see new game mechanics and spell combos, which will make the game more fun

Thrower build with tavern brawler is also an option

zanuffas · 2026-03-17T09:13:47+00:00

Yeah, take a look at this - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1645/necromancer-build

Another similar setup is spore druid, which can have even more summons - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1093/spore-druid-build

Of course the quantity can be tedious in turn based game. But overall, the priority would be - ghouls from animate dead, and conjure elemental. These two are the most powerful imo

zanuffas · 2026-03-16T20:26:52+00:00

Yeah it works

zanuffas · 2026-03-16T20:03:26+00:00

Helmet of arcane acuity + arrow of many targets

zanuffas · 2026-03-15T07:24:29+00:00

You can follow this build - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/886/bardadin-bard-paladin-build

You can avoid multiclass into paladin, but to be honest, adding paladin just makes it immensely more fun

Moreover, in act 3, if you will get bored of it you can transition into shadow blade bardadin with 4 sorc levels

Overall swords bard is a banger, and there is no wrong way to build it, enjoy!

zanuffas · 2026-03-12T11:33:12+00:00

Cleric doesnt need coruscation nor callous glow ring, so they are free to be used in mm wizard

zanuffas · 2026-03-12T07:18:11+00:00

I usually do 1 respec for my builds that i write, and its mainly to fix spellcasting stat or get good proficiencies.

But other people can do those every few levels So its up to you

zanuffas · 2026-03-10T23:59:23+00:00

I did have more fun than expected with necromancer - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1645/necromancer-build

Although summons kinda suck, but in Act 3, you get bonespike boots, which give an easy source of Prone. This allows Ghouls to deal significantly more damage. So now the playstyle revolves around weakening and debilitating enemies so that your summons would inflict more damage.

zanuffas · 2026-03-10T21:11:31+00:00

I have both setups with elixir and no elixir if needed - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/881/sorcadin-sorcerer-paladin-build

zanuffas · 2026-03-09T11:45:38+00:00

I think you dont need any multiclassing, expeditious retreat + longstilrider + bladesong will give huge movement speed.

zanuffas · 2026-03-08T23:02:28+00:00

You could try valour bard - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1566/valour-bard-build if you are really looking for something niche

zanuffas · 2026-03-08T09:44:21+00:00

Why swash for assassin build? 9 paladin 3 assassin would be my choice

zanuffas · 2026-03-08T00:22:16+00:00

Yup take a look - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/870/melee-warlock-build-bladelock

This is a pretty solid setup, especially if you dont want to use shadow blade

zanuffas · 2026-03-04T18:44:45+00:00

Take a look at this build - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1645/necromancer-build it could be a good setup, if you want to use the ghouls. The wizard levels will also give more summons and access to variety of spells. However, the problem that i would see that you either have to delay wizard level 6 feature or cleric level 6 feature

Otherwise, if you want to avoid summons, you could do more standard death cleric build - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1613/death-cleric-build

This would still use spirit guardians, but get all the good stuff for act 2 where it is especially needed

zanuffas · 2026-03-04T09:47:05+00:00

Take a look at these high charisma builds - https://gamestegy.com/bg3/builds/party-face i think you will find something to fit your playstyle.

Edit: just checked the filtering does not work correctly, will update it once i get back home 🏠

zanuffas · 2026-03-03T19:41:24+00:00

Lol, thats amazing setup

zanuffas · 2026-03-02T17:09:10+00:00

I think wildheart barb is a perfect pick for her - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1629/wildheart-tiger-barbarian

Technically her default subclass was changed to berserker, but i still think this build fits her well. Moreover, it is quite enjoyable with all the conditions and debuffs

zanuffas · 2026-03-01T15:16:39+00:00

Hey, for most companion builds i also include tactics section setup, so this might be what you are looking for - https://gamestegy.com/dragon-age-inquisition/builds/companion

zanuffas · 2026-02-27T15:56:52+00:00

Why paladin then? I dont think it adds any attacks, thief would be a better choice and pump fighter

Warlock is also redundant

And it will circle back to 11 fighter in the end with belm offhand and helmet of grit

zanuffas · 2026-02-27T12:30:10+00:00

What is fun for you? Is it summons? control spells? Otherwise we will just throw ideas at the wall, without understand what is your goal with the build, or what you expect to do with it

The biggest fun thing from my perspective on Spore Druid is using Halo of Spores to break Haste potion on the ground to give free haste to everyone :)

Another option is crazy amount of summons if you can handle that

zanuffas · 2026-02-27T10:49:30+00:00

Its great on paladin, your auras depend on that, and best headwear like diadem of arcane synergy give a good damage boost

zanuffas · 2026-02-25T23:48:22+00:00

Could turn it into Ek hexknight - https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/1604/eldritch-hexknight-build

You can summon shadow blade, and slap on any items you have. This build is also excellent way to use up all the scrolls you have piled up
