BARDLOCK Bard / Warlock Build Guide: Baldur's Gate 3
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 тра 2024
- Surprisingly VERY synergetic! This is a BARDLOCK Bard Warlock Build Guide in Baldur's Gate 3 that can also solo the game with the three powerful attacks and ability to cast crowd control with high spell save DC. Very powerful build overall! I will cover some gear that makes this class extremely powerful as well as a general guide to how you want to approach combat. The band of the mystic scoundrel allows us to cast our crowd control as a bonus action which is honestly huge. Being able to stop up to 4 enemies with command from the Warlock, or with confusion, it can control the battlefield effectively.
Let me know if you have any build guide requests for Baldur's Gate 3!

I love your builds! I would love to see what gear you would recommend for each act if it's possible! It would really help make the build even easier to follow :)
It’s tough recommending gear for act 1 because there’s not much that benefits as much as act 3 gear! Honestly for the first two acts just grab the best armor you can find and you’ll be good, act 3 is when everything all comes together
Starting with Bard gives you more weapon proficiencies and dueling fighting style just makes more sense if your not dual wielding light weapons and your bonus action is taken by spell casting. Always take spells from warlock list you cannot get from bard list!
You get the weapon proficiencies by adding the bard in! You won’t be casting crowd control every turn so having a stronger offhand attack is pretty solid but I see your points! I didn’t have shield proficiency with this character
All the warlock spells were ones you can’t get as bard
@@JasonDunna I had some of the issues I listed building for myself and Wyll before because of those oversights like taking spells that’s were redundant, not picking a race that gave any good bonuses outside of darkvision, as you’ll already have medium armor proficiency from bard level 3 and if you build this for duelist prerogative it can be a truly devastating cc dpr monster. Taking great old one would be great if not for some of the fire spells you get from fiend. Shield is definitely recommended for 1st and 2nd act as flourishes are so good and being able to pact your weapon means you can wield anything in the game with no issues .
@@JasonDunna you dont get all proficiencies adding bard later. If you go sword bard, you only get medium armor and scimitars.
Omg I literally wanted to change wyll to this yesterday 😁
I used detect thoughts and predicted the next build guide you wanted!
@@JasonDunna psychic lol 😂 but have been thinking of changing one of my playthroughs to a bard multiclass for diolouge it's either bard paladin or bard warlock 😂
@@aleesha2004 You could do 6 levels bard, 5 levels warlock 1 level paladin to keep the 3 attacks! Maybe I will come up with a build guide for that hmmm
@@JasonDunna yeh maybe I'm currently on a tav (for once not durge) moon druid playthrough but wanna either make a bard warlock durge or bard paladin but can't decide 😭
Why hex dex? The only hex I can think that might come up is strength to reduce their chance to shove and it might affect their jumping range (not sure though).
Dex counts for armor class and hit chance, so I imagine for that purpose
@michae976 that's a very common misunderstanding of the Hex spell. Hex only affects ability checks, not saves nor AC, ect. Just skills such as athletics, acrobatics, and investigation for example.
@@liberalideas8224 wow I had no idea
Hex dex can reduce their ability to hide/stealth and hex wisdom can improve your team’s chance of hiding/stealth. Hex strength can reduce the chance of them shoving you to but the BIG focus on hex is the d6 necrotic damage that gets added to attack rolls. Eldritch blast and scorching ray proc that on every beam so it can be decent damage early game
@@JasonDunna great list!
Worth using dueling fighting style with a shield as you're using bonus action for spells, so two wpn fighting style is wasted!
Sword bard doesn’t get shield proficiency, and since I was playing a drow here I don’t get the racial one. Great for humans or half elf’s though! Thanks for sharing that
@JasonDunna you can choose a race that gets shield proficiency to make it easier. Interesting build though, keep it up
Why you don't take it githyanki race for medium armour 😊
Sword bard gets medium armor proficiency
So extra attack stacks when between warlock and bard but it doesn't between martials ? Stinks like "favoring" casters to me.
Extra attack stacks with martial classes, so a fighter theoretically can get 3 attacks before level 11! Honestly everything in Baldur’s Gate 3 can beat the game (except maybe arcane trickster it’s just meh)
@@JasonDunna Bladelock’s extra attack does stack with martial classes’ extra attack in all difficulties except for honor mode! What is your difficulty?
@@JasonDunna Ok. Thanks for that answer.
@@ZMSKfullpower no problem! Martial classes are pretty good but due to it being a video game and the layout of combat, ranges options do end up being better, but I think the Monk is the strongest melee class
