Summary
Baldur’s Gate 3has an assortment of classes that each take inspiration fromthe multiple classes availablewhen playing the tabletop ofDungeons and Dragons. While each class has its advantages and disadvantages, some classes are naturally more fun to play than others.
SinceBaldur’s Gate 3is always receiving new content, such as each class in the game getting an entirely new subclass and various new evil endings to achieve, there are plenty of reasons to playBG3again or even for the first time to experience this RPG to the fullest. Even if these classes aren’t the strongest in the game compared to some others, these are the classes that are most fun to play, ranked.
8Druid
Being Able To Transform Is Entertaining
Starting off with a great class, theDruidis not only a versatile option for players but also an incredibly entertaining one. What makes the Druid so fun for players is the ability to transform their character into an assortment of both animals and elementals.
This can be useful both in and out of combat, but is also just great for how many optionsLarian Studios gives playersas a Druid to allow each battle to feel unique if players decide to use a different one each time. There is also just something hilarious about exploring a hideout or the city of Baldur’s Gate as a cat since nobody seems to mind the player’s presence.
7Barbarian
Some Of The Funniest Dialogue Options
The Barbarian class may seem quite straightforward since this optiondoesn’t contain any spellsand, therefore, may be dismissed by some players for being just a basic melee class. However, the Barbarian has plenty of potential to give players a fun time while exploringBaldur’s Gate 3. Subclasses like Wild Magic add an element of randomness to battles inBaldur’s Gateto keep players on their toes.
Besides the subclasses for the Barbarian, choosing this option also has many hilarious moments outside of battle when talking to various NPCs. This reckless class can say some rather odd things to people, from letting out a rawr to stop a child from hearing the song of a harpy to making fun of a bugbear and ogre having some alone time, only to name a few.
6Wizard
Plenty Of Ways To Experiment
Magic is arguably one of the most entertaining things in Baldur’s Gate 3, especially for those who enjoy experimenting with different spells to see what sort of damage they can do. The Wizard is a perfect class for anyone looking for some fun due to the variety of magic that is available to them.
Not only can players select from a wide range of spells as they level up and unlock stronger ones, but Wizards can also learn spells from scrolls to make the list of magic even larger. With options like Fireball available to players, every battle can be incredibly exciting.
5Warlock
Eldritch Blast Is All A Warlock Needs For Fun
Another spellcasting class that is heaps of fun for players inBaldur’s Gate 3is the Warlock. With the support of the player’s patron, there are plenty of enjoyable spells within this class that make it so entertaining, but one of the best spells, which is all the reason for playing this darker class, is Eldritch Blast.
On its own, Eldritch Blast is already a deadly cantrip to bring into battle, but byleveling up the Warlock class, players can add features to this cantrip to make it even stronger. One great option for players to select is the feature that allows Eldritch Blast to push enemies. This can then be exploited to throw enemies to their deaths.
4Monk
Dish Out Damage With Only Punches And Kicks
Monk is another fun option inBaldur’s Gate 3due to players being able to deal a substantial amount of damage without even having a weapon equipped. Being able to punch and kick to victory makes the Monk an interesting option, as well as being way better than itsDungeons and Dragonscounterpart.
With the addition of the Way of the Drunken Master subclass that was added in Patch 8, players are in for even more of a treat with the Monk subclass, as the player’s character will rely on alcohol to not only replenish their Ki Points, but also make their opponents drunk to make them susceptible to the player’s attacks. This, combined with some of the weaponry that can be found aroundBaldur’s Gate 3, makes for a lot of potential.
3Bard
Chat Up A Storm In Baldur’s Gate 3
Any player that has enjoyedDungeons and Dragonswill know that playing as a Bard leaves the player with plenty of potential, both in and out of combat, inBaldur’s Gate 3. With spells like Vicious Mockery being hilarious to use due to the player’s character or companion hurling some of themost ridiculous insultsat an enemy and dealing damage, this is only one of many ways the Bard is fun to play.
Like the Barbarian, Bards have plenty of ways to make conversations go their own way, especially due to Charisma being one of the strongest attributes. This can lead to some funny moments in dialogue that may not have been available when playing as a different class due to not having high enough skill.
2Paladin
Nothing Can Beat Divine Smiting Enemies
Although entertainment can be found without being incredibly overpowered, this is still one of the most fun ways to enjoy classes like Paladin inBaldur’s Gate 3. Many players have taken a liking to the Paladin class due to the amount of damage that can be done to various foes while in combat.
However, Paladins is also entertaining for those who enjoy actually role-playing in their RPG titles, as Paladins must be careful about the choices they make in dialogue in the hopes of not breaking their oath. Becoming an oath breaker may still be some players’ choice, which unlocks all sorts of new ways of playingBG3,as players now fight for themselves.
1Sorcerer
Wild Magic Supplies A Surprise Every Battle
Unsurprisingly, out of all the classes available inBaldur’s Gate 3, by far one of the most fun to play has to be the Sorcerer. As seen previously, the magic classes inBaldur’s Gate 3are some of the best for those who are not only looking forward to being powerful but also enjoy the chaos that can be caused by slinging spells.
While each and every sorcerer class has its own entertainment value, which would make it a great option for the player to choose, those who are looking for the most fun should be sure to pick the Wild Magic Sorcerer. By selecting this subclass, players should be prepared for some of the most random effects to occur each timethey cast a spell. This can add an element of chaos to battles, as well as something new for those who have already completedBG3countless times.
