I watch all of your videos and love them! I also appreciate the build videos which include chapters, they make it super easy for me to bounce back and forth and level my builds alongside the videos.
LOOOVE the idea of reflavoring the hill giant potions. I do something similar with Karlach in my tav run (using your fire barbarian monk build btw!) and flavor them as combination pain killers and magical coolant, increasing the engine output so she can use closer to her real strength (which would peak at 30+ in Avernus) Incredibly fun :D But yes, I loooove this build for a lore-friendly DJ Shart! I'm also er, planning to go the strength potion route too, cause it just perfectly patches a hole that lets her use the +3 spears to their full potential. For my current durge run, I actually don't know if I'm going dark justiciar. I never had before, and while my durge isn't SUPER evil or anything, her priorities are... different to say the least, so maybe. Speaking of going DJ, I also discovered it's possible for you to lack enough approval that she'll always choose to go DJ if given the choice, without input from your MC, OR with enough "hidden" story points but not enough visible approval, she'll go DJ no matter what. Which MIGHT be a bug? Cause those story points are supposed to basically guarantee that she won't? But who knows?? So if that happens then well, my MC tried, but she didn't rizz Shadowheart hard enough for her to listen so, might as well see where this goes.
I heard that you can have 40+ approval rating and she spares her every time or having the nightsong points has her spare her every time which in most cases if you are doing a semi decent/good playthrough shouldn't be super hard to achieve.
@@NewAge374 Yeah I saw that video and someone said that if you have 40+ approval you don't need the other points but not sure if that's true I haven't tested it.
Yeah like you said this is her evil ending and chooses to do so because she was mentally destroyed by Shar and even then when losing her memories she is under the false idea that everything Shar tells her to do is good which is sad.
okay for my actual comment. honestly i would have said 14 dex with a robe?! but i do understand its hard to work with that. Man a build with divine strike AND with divine smite, those are rare. Okay now i didn't really realize how great is the trickery domain spell list is. THATS A LOT OF STUFF! Darkness & Devil shite sheningians LMAO Hobo: "i shouldn't record videos when im in a rush" Me: "Nah its makes it funnier" Man, black and jade dye looks so cool on the Dark Justiciar armor set, noted down. Hmmm two sources of dominate person...nice This was a good video, i really love this build honestly, and its really shows how underrated trickery cleric is Dex approves (cuz its shadowheart)
Slay love shadowheart. Random, potentially unnecessary suggestion, but it’d be awesome if you could do Dorothy and the wizard of oz! Karlach makes a percect Tin Man, since no heart, and Scratch makes a perfect Toto!
If anyone has completed an evil ascended astarion origin on the patch 7 close beta, he pretends to 'be a sun king' with himself enveloped in light whilst everything turns dark. Perhaps a shadow monk/light cleric build is something you could look into.
I love how buggy Shadowhearts white hair is. Her card always displays it in black, her romance scene has her hair black too. And even normally it sometimes switches colours.
My shadowheart is a ranger/rogue. An assassin of Shar! I HATE feeling that a character HAS to be the class they start with. My astarion is my cleric, haha. I keep Gale as a caster, though. The mystra buff and whatnot just works.
This is what I am doing in my current run. I did have her with 'some' cleric, then decided to respec and go all out with the Gloomstalker/Assassin. I suppose it is technically more lore friendly then making her a Radiant Cleric....
Of course you can use a shield with the monk version. Just go cleric or paladin first. I've personally played trickery more than most domains. Tempest is the favorite but trickery is great for a mystic scoundrel. When the game was new I made a Trickery 5/Shadow 7 build for thematic accuracy and accidentally made something ridiculously powerful. So many items compliment the combo perfectly.
It would be better to have 17 wisdom combined with +1 wisdom aunthie ethels hair. Then your spirit guardfian an other cleric spells do more damage. Smites dont need charisma, so you can leave it at 8. So besides the asi + 2 wisdom, you can have the second feat savage attacker to do more damage with the spear.
Yeah but I don't wanna be misleading with the armour choices for console players. If the transmog mod comes to console with Patch 7, then I'll happily use it.
I've seen in a lot of BG3 videos that people mention reaching the end of Act 2 around levels 7-8. I don't understand how someone could finish Act 2 at such a low level. I routinely walked into Rivington around level 10 and hit 11 before entering Baldur's Gate proper. Are people just intentionally skipping large amounts of content in the first two acts?
What are those camp clothes? They don't look like her default. I modded Viconia's Robe to be camp clothes, so my Sharran Shadowheart can wear it and the Dark Justiciar Half Plate at the same time.
As punishment for braking her oath Shadowheart was forced to stop using hair dye.
'I'm gonna go do a crime now'... I love Oathbreaker build videos XD
Love this and perfect timing as I am about to enter the house of grief
I love this!! There's already a lot of Selûne builds on this channel I can use for Shadowheart so this works wonderfully for a Sharran run!

There's a video going into the code that explains it all. There are two kinds of hidden points on top of the approval rating.
@@NewAge374 Yeah I saw that video and someone said that if you have 40+ approval you don't need the other points but not sure if that's true I haven't tested it.
Shart with her devil shite powers
Never living that one down am I?

Ok I have regained consciousness and need to say I love this

I thought about Karlach's similarities with Tin Man too!

This just convinced me not to kill shadowheart on my durge playthrough
Love the more builds for companions!! Have u thought abt making some more for Laezel? Would love a githyanki type ranger character

You can't get Monks unarmoured defense while using a shield.
@@HoboZone Actually yes you do.
@@RandomGuy010no. Monk unarmed defense does not work with a shield equipped. Barbarian does. bg3.wiki/wiki/Unarmoured_Defence_(Monk)
If only Pole Arm Master applied damage riders, it would be a great addition to this build. Add poison to reaction attack and smite on bonus action
I am trying this build out but with a level 20 Shadowheart.
It would be better to have 17 wisdom combined with +1 wisdom aunthie ethels hair. Then your spirit guardfian an other cleric spells do more damage. Smites dont need charisma, so you can leave it at 8. So besides the asi + 2 wisdom, you can have the second feat savage attacker to do more damage with the spear.
HoboZone use the transmog mod, just so you can do whatever look you think works better for your marvelous builds!
Yeah but I don't wanna be misleading with the armour choices for console players. If the transmog mod comes to console with Patch 7, then I'll happily use it.
@@HoboZone for me it’s the most essencial mod we need that one and a dye one
Love DJ builds

Same, they're skipping too much it's wild

what ur fav origin character to play as
Dark Urge.
even for a trickster cleric it's not good
It's a thematic build, not a meta build, you dork.
first
