In Baldur’s Gate 3, a player on Reddit presented their monk build. It reveals a strong combination and massive damage that you can generate per turn in a fight. We show you the details.
What is this build about? Reddit user OrkoTheMage has assembled a monk-rogue build, focusing on annihilating his opponents with bare hands. Every player tries to extract the maximum possible damage from their build to become deadlier.
Orko, however, takes this to a new level with his build, as he can deal between 168 to 320 damage with his monk, depending on luck. Enough to send almost any opponent to the afterlife with just one blow.
168 to 320 damage per turn – What you need to consider
What do you need for this build? Orko has used two classes for his build. Your main class is the monk with the way of the open hand, paired with the rogue specializing as a thief.
The monk was leveled up with his subclass to level 8, while the thieving rogue gets 3 levels. Additionally, you should equip the talent “Tavern Brawler.”
Items that are particularly worthwhile include:
- Vest of Soul Rejuvenation
- Mask of Soul Perception
- Deathstalker Mantle
- Helldusk Gloves
Once you have combined all this, thanks to bonus actions from your talents and items, you can perform up to 8 strikes that deal 30 damage points per strike. In total, up to 8 strikes are possible, raising your damage per turn to 240. This is a powerful amount of damage that can eliminate almost any opponent in one turn.
What do the players say? Reddit user Shuiei confirms Orko’s build and shares his own experience with the multiclass build: “Monk/Rogue is by far the best multiclass when it comes to damage. I play it, and it doesn’t even make the opponent have fun (via Reddit).”
Other players share their suggestions to replace the rogue with barbarian classes to take more hits.
Additionally, it is pointed out that there are other builds that can achieve such high damage numbers. One build of a paladin is mentioned.
It becomes clear that you only need to engage with the topic and understand how to increase your damage with multiple additional attacks in one turn.
A goblin in Baldur’s Gate 3 can, however, be saved not by combat strength, but by making the right decision, but you have to be careful, otherwise he will quickly make a funny exit.
