    The breath attack for Dragonborn was recently patched so that it scales with character level, so it's now useful later in the game.

      ​@Roonayy depends on your stats and class u can also find gear that buffs a certain elements dmg with additional dmg. Its only mid
      because you dont know what your doing.
      My dragon born is acid . I have gloves that buff any acid dmg i do as well as my weapons do a additional 6/12 acid dmg with any weapons strike on top of the dmg it already does . Boots that also boost any acid dmg i do and accessories. I miss out on stat boosting gear but its np when my acid breath and weapons can melt 3 to 4 enemies at a time with crits i can one shot bosses. You simply dont understand but its not the games nor the attacks fault buddy . This is a big brain game with limitless potential to make anything deadly. Just requires a brain :p

      ​@@GodlsAFKby definition that still makes it mid homeboy.
      I can make a build around killing things by throwing arena objects or enemies at each other. It can be done. Does not make it a good way to play. It just makes it doable. Same goes for breath attacks.
      I don't need to niche hunt items, stat allocate, or play around with having extra movement, or better critical hits from a few other classes. I can just do it without having to do something that's tedious.
      Also, don't confuse being intelligent and having game knowledge. It doesn't take a big brain to combo items if you know how they interact, or hell that something in early act two can be factored in before you get there. It just means you have played/ spoiled the game in order to achieve a goal you already had pre determined. People are not stupid for not knowing. It's just ignorance. And to new players, they're not going to see any kind of tangible benefit to pursuing something just outright significantly more tedious to work in than say, a gith getting misty step at around the same time.

Heavy and medium armour usage for flexibility, great user for many of the melee combat feats because smites are really strong due to their high damage output AND utililty, they can output really high melee healing relative to level throughout the game, can fit into any role apart from solo support and ranged caster (yes I would argue you can build a half decent DEX Finesse Paladin utilizing duellist mechanics! I used a bruiser tank Paladin so I was very tanky whilst producing a ton of damage (if you're familiar with LoL, think of Urgot or Warwick).

    Very helpful. New to BG, and DnD. Back in the day I really loved Dragon Age (I bought all 3 in a steam bundle and have yet to get back into it, not even installed). I’ve found myself save scumming like crazy with BG3. It’s a game, I paid $60, I’m gonna get the outcomes I want. What was annoying to figure out with Oath of Ancients paladin, you can’t kill specific enemies, even if they attack you. Like I’m Goblin Camp, the two you find after the Owlbear attack them, if you kill them yourself in goblin camp, you break your oath. I had to reload and fight it again so I wouldn’t break it. I was frustrated and called in the ogres, definitely paid them to stay with me. Anyhow, it’s been a lot of fun. I went human fighter at first, got to the under dark and decided to start over. High elf paladin. I don’t really know what I’m doing when it comes to skill checks. This was very helpful, I will definitely be visiting Withers momentarily to respec.

    Question about dialogue encounters & approval:
    If you have one of your companions conduct the dialogue .. let's say you choose NOT to run as a Paladin, so your build has low Charisma ..
    Obviously, you will need some help with dialogues ..
    .. will your own custom character still get the approval of the other companions, who are currently nearby ?
    Or, must your own specific Character conduct the dialogue encounter (& subsequent dice rolls) for their approval?
    Apologies if this seems a bit obvious; but there are game mechanics which often seem a bit counterintuitive.

    Thanks for the videos!
    [edit] Also, why start with 17 STR and 15 CHA? Is that from your DnD days? In BG3, you're better off going 16/16 and getting that benefit to CHA. At level 4, you'll be at 18/16 anyway, without losing the CHA (persuasion, trading, etc.) benefits early on.

    An unfortunate thing about the Oathbreaker Paladin's Aura of Hate is that it specifically states that it adds to the *melee weapon attacks* of undead. This means that zombie fist attacks and skeleton arrows do NOT get the bonus from the aura. I'm hoping that this is a bug that they can patch at some point, rather than rules as intended, because I was soooooo disappointed when I discovered this

    My favourite RP build is 5 levels of paladin, (intentionally) break my oath, then have my paladin turn to darker forces for the power he needs, spurred on by the OB knight who points out no power is good or evil, it's just what you use it for. A great reason to turn into a lockadin that fits the character. More so for Durge.

    So came honour mode and I ... decided to play a paladin.
    Nyrulna, spell slot shield from Act 2 Vendor, armour from Dammon... 26 AC... and boy my paladin was an absolute beast. I literally destroyed thinks that couldnt even scratch me. What an amazing class. By the way, it was on honour mode. I absolutely love this class.

    Be careful with Oathbreaker. They can't respec like the other subclasses. I didn't learn that until beginning of act 2. If you want to go Lockadin as an Oathbreaker, then you should add in the Warlock multi ASAP and THEN break your oath.
    Since I messed up, I haven't been able to figure out a way to break my oath of vengeance past act 1. It's okay though. The side stories gave my Paladin an incredible RP redemption arc to follow.

      Might be too late at this point but in act 2 there's a sidequest where a guy asks you for help punishing a criminal. If you instead forgive the criminal, you break your Oath of Vengeance. There are a few other ways but vengeance is a difficult one to break. Check the wiki linked in the description, the page for each oath details a few ways to break it in every act.

    or do you benefit more from going to 7 in either class? or would a pally 6 warlock 6 be something to consider, as well? aghhhhh damn this game and all it's choices!
    Can't wait until I have a more complete understanding of this game! I've always wanted to get into Tabletop D&D but never had the chance, So BG3 is, so far as I can tell, the next best thing! With a decent amount of changes from 5e rules, of course. but it seems like most D&d vets are mostly satisfied with Larian's changes. the exception being, the lack of custom races and not all classes being available. Any D&D vets in the comment section feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, please. Again I'm a total noob to all this. anyways great content brother! keep it up!

      Yeah constitution is good because you will be casting spells that require concentration. Higher con means better concentration. Charisma is good too because it adds to your aura of protection. Dex only benefits you for initiative because you are wearing heavy armor and don't fight ranged.

    In 20ish years of playing D&D, Paladin has been the class I never play. Their oath really restricts the "lawful neutral" playstyle I like. Even if they pack a massive punch, I dont think I'll ever this class in BG3 unless I want an Oathbreaker/Necromancer.

    • @Lahk1
      @Lahk1 Рік тому +2

      I think Oath of Vengeance is pretty morally ambiguous. See the movie Law Abiding Citizen - guy does some dark shit for the sake of vengeance. A lot of westerns probably fit the bill too - like Clint Eastwood's Unforgiven as example.
      If you can't roleplay a neutral character devoted to the idea of vengeance for some slight, I don't think you're trying very hard. Some freak put a parasite in my brain and I'm gonna turn into a monster in a few days? You bet your ass vengeance is on my mind, to the point I couldn't care less about anything else unless it helps me make those f'ers pay.

    14:34 Video game RPG's are severely lacking in actual RP systems that utilise character (by true definition). It wouldn't hurt for studios to implement this stuff from tabletop more often. Having to choose a negative and positive characteristic in "character" creation would be nice.
    If you look at something like Skyrim for example: Actual character has barely any input in the game and decisions are almost exclusively made by the player. In comparison, Disco Elysium minimises the tendency to put stats first and even completely removes the utterly pointless "pick a haicut" BS, in favour of being character driven.
    Lots of publishers have pushed for Role-playing elements but most games fail to achieve anything close, which is in turn creating a false perception of what the genre is.
    Hopefully before AI destroys the planet, we at least get some proper role-playing games out of it :)

    Dragonborn's color does not have any meaning in the game nor in D&D. A half dragon is a completely different race, and with that race the colors do matter. Like, a red half dragon means trouble. Dragonborn's aren't even related to dragons in any way, they were created to serve dragons but share no ancestry with them. Half dragons do.
