In this video I give an in-depth guide to the best Monk Multiclass build for Baldur's Gate 3. This build focuses on eliminating enemies quickly with high single-target damage while also being very tanky and having some of the best mobility in the game.

Dumping str really is the pro strat in this game no matter what you’re doing. I feel like the world of BG3 should be largely made up of juiced up super-people with the amounts of hill giant elixir around.

If Baldur's Gate 3 has taught me anything, Winners do drugs, gaslighting people is the best way to get what you want and build relationships, you should never waste a good corpse, never fight honorably, and finally the richest person is the one who never pays for anything.

In almost 1K hours playtime I never used a single one of those. Instead I dump CON and use the amulett for a 23 CON. A single level of barbarian to get CON to AC and use a shield.

@@matunusdonnerhammer3423 I don't do weird single class dips usually because I'm not that intelligent. I do the more obvious ones like 9/3 barb fighter splits because they're very clearly signposted well to mesh with other martial classes.

While I think this is better than elixirs, I'd still rather dump CON instead of STR. You can use the amulett for 23 CON and raise your STR to 24 with the vampire blood potion and Shar temple.

@@WhipDarling nice. Draconic? I did a Sorlock EB Blaster and it was pretty fun and cost very little resources. The only thing is if you’re going to do a full evil run Durge you should take advantage of the specific gear you get which is good if you’re dealing piercing damage. So I did a Rapier Warlock Pact of the Blade Duelist. The thing that sucks with Durge is you have to kill someone at camp. You can exploit and kill the dragon born instead of Alfira to get the Potent Robe. Which is like mandatory for a EB Sorlock. I wonder if 10 Sorcerer (fire Draconic) / 2 Wizard (for sculpt spells) would work? You lose a feat + Draconic Fly, but you can metamagic some pretty strong fire spells along without worrying about friendly fire. But an evil Durge probably doesn’t care about that 😅😅😅

Cool combo for gith only, you can you use diadem of arcane synergy and the gaint slayer sword from the dragon the sword double dips your strength like taven brawler (but only for damage) and arcane synergy adds your wisdom to melee attack which deal higher damage than basic monk hits. Open with flurry of blows topple to prone the enemy then you have free advantage on your melee attacks. Also monk have special animations for great swords which look sick as.

What about Karlach - they are not patched extra 2d4 fire damage on unarmed attack after using soul coins? If not, she is not that worse than Astarion as monk. Second - I think that taking extra fighter class(2 levels )is a very solid option for armoured monks(only speed will decreased), and you can use shields for extra AC. And I think that one ASI to wisdom much worse than action surge and option to use any equipment.

hi, i've been using this build for like 3 days now and i just got to act 2, the build is insanely strong and really fun, my question is is Yuan ti really better than graceful cloth? because the only thing that really changes is that you go from 18 AC to 19 AC but u kind of lose the double dice on stealth checks and you also lose 5 mts per turn, the iniciative roll is not really necessary because you pretty much attack first every time so i'd like to know what u think about it

You get ton of the lesser version 21 strength right off the bat with Auntie Ethel at the Tieflings camp. She sells 3 at time and everytime you level up, she resets the stock as well as long rest even without supplies. You can get a Hireling and level him up one by one while buying. For gold you can steal the dwarf seller that always has his back turned waiting to be robbed. Go into Turn Mode steal everything from him, if you're caught, just run to the gate and climb the ladder. He'll give up and no guards can see what's happening there. Don't steal Auntie Ethel, which is only doable with invisibility since has a lot of npc around her, she will run away since she is a hag and even if you're invisible she'll notice it.

You use wisdom for your manifestation buffs and also AC from unarmoured defence. Dumping str and using elixirs is the optimal way to play monk. You can buy 3 potions from Ethel every long rest and every level up, you can't get enough of the act 1 elixirs to have 3 characters using them all the way through the game.

Assuming you don't choose Astarion, you can do 30-52 damage per punch if you include psionic overload. You can punch 6 times at level 12 = 180-312 damage. If you include haste and wholeness of body you can punch 10 times per turn. Which comes out to 300-520 damage. Without Psionic overload or Astarion: 174-288 and 290-480 With Astarion+Psionic Overload: 186-372 and 310-620 Thanks for watching! :)
