What are your must-have feats? Edit: OMG I forgot about war caster. It’s a VERY useful feat for spellcasters that often find themselves in melee, as holding that concentration is key. Small items spoiler though:…………………………. You find quite a bit of armors with con save advantage in the game though, so you can always respec out of it when you find one!

@@ChristmasLore hehe, funny because i would like a level of Bard for RP reasons but it ruins the build (8/4 is important for feats). its based on the character Jake the Muss (human obviously) from the 1994 film "Once Were Warriors" who epitomizes the Tavern Brawler.

The armor feats are not so much of a trap as you might think, taking just one multiclass level will lock you out of a feat since they are based on class levels not character level. So all classes (except fighter) can have a maximum of 3 feats/ASI, 1 each 4th Class level. So if you just want an armor proficeny its sometimes more effective to use the feat (that you would lose anyway when you only take 1 - 3 levels in a diffrent class) on an armor feat but still keep your main class progression going, especialy as a spellcaster.
@KainRaRPG Жыл бұрын
Or you could just play a human or a Githyanki and get armor anyway :D taking a feat for it is usually not worth it in a highly magical setting like BG3 with plenty of cloth items around for monks. Small item spoiler…………… I already had gloves that set dex to 18 and plenty good cloth armors in act 2. The only way I would take armor is through race or multiclassing, like 1 cleric level is usually better than 1 ASI anyway, and you still get level 6 spells.

I don’t think it translates that well into a video game, it can be annoying in tabletop for sure and ruin some pivotal moments but in a game with so many rolls all the time and feats with permanent direct impact on your character I think it’s not that convincing, simply more build defining stuff out there. But maybe I should’ve mentioned it anyway because it’s not bad for sure.

Nevermind i can basically never use enemies as makeshift weapon because theyre always too heavy even at 18 str (tried using dwarves) And again, even if it works, you can just throw them instead of makeshift weapon which is better imo.

Hey, I'm running a Warlock right now and got to choose a feat. I'd love to go Spell sniper, but it says "I have to choose a cantrip" - and Eldritch Blast is not within the list of choices (probably because I already know it, as I am a warlock). Does that mean that if I choose any of the other cantrips in the list, the critical hit dice improvement will be valid only for that cantrip and not for my Eldritch Blast as well?
@KainRaRPG Жыл бұрын
It should increase the crit range for all damaging cantrips you know, and in addition you can pick another one. However, I heard that the feat is currently bugged so I would avoid taking it until they fix it (I just found out about it a couple minutes ago).
