The tradition of Baldur's Gate Kensai/Mages weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living.

, veteran Obsidian developer Josh Sawyer touched on a Something Awful forum creation,"Lol-R-SK8," a mathematically perfected 3.5 edition character that was a"Cleric of the Computer 1/Wizard 6/Contemplative 1/Mystic Theurge 10/Seeker of Alpha Complex 1/ Loremaster 10/ Monk 1/Variant Druid 1."5th Edition D&D's multiclassing rules broadly resemble those of third and 3.

In Baldur's Gate 3, I think those base and vile Lol-R-SK8 urges are gonna be curbed by that Hobbit hole ceiling-low max level 12 cap. I'm less familiar with 5th Edition D&D than I am its earlier variants, but level 12 is about when a 3rd edition multiclass character would really start to come into their own and outshine a single-classer.

The days of Lol-R-SK8 are dead in CRPGs , but it seems like there's still a niche for some multiclassing in Baldur's Gate 3. Mortismal notes that second level Fighters'"Action Surge" ability makes them a prime candidate for a cheeky two-level dip on a variety of builds. I'm seriously eyeing the Blade Bard subclass also revealed at the Panel From Hell as my first character when Baldur's Gate 3 launches August 3, but maybe I could do for a little Fighter-based boostie as well.

A smuggler spotted walking with 'abnormal posture' was found to be carrying 306 CPUsA smuggler spotted walking with 'abnormal posture' was found to be carrying 306 CPUsChris' gaming experiences go back to the mid-nineties when he conned his parents into buying an 'educational PC' that was conveniently overpowered to play Doom and Tie Fighter. He developed a love of extreme overclocking that destroyed his savings despite the cheaper hardware on offer via his job at a PC store. To afford more LN2 he began moonlighting as a reviewer for VR-Zone before jumping the fence to work for MSI Australia. Since then, he's gone back to journalism, enthusiastically reviewing the latest and greatest components for PC & Tech Authority, PC Powerplay and currently Australian Personal Computer magazine and PC Gamer. Chris still puts far too many hours into Borderlands 3, always striving to become a more efficient killer.
