Baldur’s Gate 3 lets you mix and match classes as you please. One player apparently didn’t want companions in the game and has come up with a build that allows you to go solo perfectly.
Where does the build come from? The solo build was published by the TikTok channel squarefiregaming. The channel calls the build The Multiclass of Madness!!!
. In total, the build requires six levels and four different classes.
Why exactly squarefiregaming needs a build for a solo run is neither explained in the video nor in the description. Apparently, they don’t want to have companions on their adventures around Baldur’s Gate. If you feel the same way, you can simply leave them standing in camp with this build.
Hidden and from the shadows – But don’t get detected
What kind of build is this? The build primarily focuses on ensuring that your enemies do not detect you: Two of the four classes are designed so that you will not be discovered. One is there to give you more hit points and enable ranged attacks.
You can deal real damage with the rogue: the boosted sneak attack from the combo is your best attack. This way, you are also tuned to stay as hidden as possible and hide again quickly and easily – the monk and warlock help with this.
How do you build this? The ultimate solo build is a complex multiclass build. Below you can read which classes you should take at which level:
- Level 1: Fighter
- Fighting style: Archery
- Distribute your ability points as follows:
- Strength 10
- Dexterity 16 with
+1
-bonus - Constitution 16 with
+2
-bonus - Intelligence 10
- Wisdom 8
- Charisma 14
- Level 2: Warlock
- Spells don’t matter
- Take
The Great Old One
as patron- this gives you the feature that enemies are afraid of you when you land a critical hit
- Level 3: Warlock
Hex
for increased damageDevil’s Sight
to see in the darkOne with the Shadows
- Level 4: Rogue
- for sneak attack, which should be used every round
- take
Sleight of Hand
- take
Stealth
- Level 4 to 6: Monk
Way of the Shadow
- Shadow Arts: Hide
- Shadow Arts: Darkness
- Shadow Arts: Darkvision
- take
Deflect Missiles
at level 3
Now you are perfectly leveled to face your enemies alone, ambushing them one by one while staying as hidden as possible. If you want to make the most of the build, equip yourself with light or medium armor. Heavy armor gives you disadvantage on the crucial stealth for the build.
Even if you now start a complete solo run: you won’t get rid of the NPCs entirely. One of them will keep pinging you, and you can only partially ignore their advances. Good thing you can really annoy them: In Baldur’s Gate 3 you can get one of the key characters to absolutely hate you
