Baldur s Gate 3: Every Paladin Subclass Ranked

This section covers the best equipment for Circle of the Moon Druids in BG3 across all three Acts. Some pieces from early Acts may still be powerful in later ones, though, and will remain equipped through several Acts.


At level 11, Wild Magic Sorcerers get the feature "Controlled Chaos," giving foes near the sorcerer a chance to trigger a Wild Magic Surge when casting spells. This extends the chaos they cause and can potentially cause serious harm to enemy spellcasters, though it also has a decent chance of helping them out

Summon Companion and Find Familiar can be used together, allowing Beast Masters to have two animals aiding them at once (though Familiars are substantially weaker in combat and are better suited to exploration.)

The Half-Orc race comes with a few notable racial abilities that help the best BG3 Fighter build become even more powerful and resilient. The race comes with Darkvision, and proficiency in Intimidation, but its real draw for Fighters comes from the Savage Attacks and Relentless Endurance passive features.
A good alternative to the Half-Orc is the Githyanki, which gain Githyanki Psyonics to further enhance their ability to control the battlefield (and jump around from enemy to enemy as if on a trampoline).

Where equipment is concerned , Rangers should seek out the "Speedy Reply" scimitar in Act 1 (found on a dead caravan agent near Flind) or the "Thorn Blade" Scimitar sold by Dammon in Act 2. These two can be very effective during the first two acts, though the Thorn Blade's poison damage is unfortunately resisted by quite a few foes. The Justiciar's Scimitar (found in the Gauntlet of Shar during Act 2) is also an excellent pick that synergizes well with the Gloom Stalker's stealth tactics. During Act 3, players can track down Belm, a returning weapon from Baldur's Gate 2, which is an exceptional weapon that can turn your bonus action into an extra attack and is thus excellent for builds that aren't dual-wielding. It has some unique synergy with certain weapons when held in the off-hand, which are discussed in the Act 3 section.

Since Rangers have proficiency with all martial weapons, they can achieve a ton of flexibility by using finesse weapons. Along with the usual suspects (Daggers, Shortswords, Scimitars, and Rapiers), there are also three unique finesse weapons in the game from weapon types that aren't usually finesse weapons. These are Phalar Aluve (longsword, Act 1, in the Underdark), Larethian's Wrath (longsword, Act 1, sold by the trader in the Githyanki Creche), and The Dancing Breeze (Glaive, Act 3, sold by Exxvikyap in Rivington.)


Players who choose a Blue Dragon as their Draconic Ancestry will learn Witch Bolt as an additional first level spell, while a Bronze Dragon will instead grant Fog Cloud . At level 6, they will gain resistance to lightning damage and a boost to lightning damage de
Their other leveling choices make them both a controlling force in melee combat and a powerful support from a distance, though most of one's time should be spent on maximizing damage output while in Wild Shape.

The Ranger subclasses in Baldur's Gate 3 allow the Ranger to gain additional abilities inspired by the Ranger's core concept as a Scout that hunts dangerous foes and has a deep understanding of the natural world. The Beast Master subclass allows them to acquire an Animal Companion to aid them in battle, the Hunter chooses a specialization to aid them in taking down their chosen foes, and the Gloom Stalker learns to steel their mind against mind-altering effects and strike at their foes from the shadows. Rangers select their subclass at level Three.

At Level 1, Second Wind grants a Bonus Action Self-Heal ability once per combat, then at Level 2, players get an Action Surge to grant an extra Action once each combat. Later on, Fighters gain better Saving Throws, Extra Attacks, and Fighting Styles, too.

Since the Enchantment School's best ability, Split Enchantment, is acquired at level 10, there isn't a lot of room for Multiclassing. That said, a dip into Fighter for Action Surge and armor proficiency or Dragon Sorcerer for better AC is always helpful. When it comes to equipping an Enchanter, there isn't much gear that is specifically useful to just this subclass, so consult the general equipment section at the bottom of this guide for advice.
