Players may want to consider some of the following underrated subclasses in Baldur's Gate 3 if they haven't already.
Warfield – The Priest subclass provides strong melee combat ability and heavy armor proficiency. It is a simple and forgiving category that is suitable for newbies.
The Beast Master - Ranger subclass allows players to summon and enhance the Beast as a companion, adding variety to combat and gameplay.
The School of Divination - The Mage subclass has an underrated game-altering ability, allowing the player to change important throws and improve spells and attacks through Omendic Dice.
Baldur's Gate 3 is a game with infinite replayability, and one of the ways to achieve this is by giving players 12 classes to choose from, all of which have a wide variety of subclasses. Naturally, some subclasses are more powerful and popular than others, but among the total 46 subclasses, there are also some seriously underrated options just waiting for players to discover.
The most underrated subclasses in Baldur's Gate 3 often don't sound too appealing at first, but when players discover their unique characteristics, they see how powerful and, more importantly, fun they can be. It's worth remembering that players can change the class or subclass of their teammates.
Fight on the front lines.
Early Game Features:
Heavy Armor & **Proficiency (Level 1): Wear the best armor and use the best Heavy Armor**.
War Priest (Level 1): Consumes charges for additional attacks.
Realm Spells (Level 1, Level 3, Level 5): Divine Favor and Shield of Faith, Magic** and Spirit**, Spiritward and Crusader Cloak.
Channeling Strike (Level 2): Channeling Holy Powers for +10 Attack Throw Bonus.
The Warrior class is often considered the easiest class for newcomers to Dungeons & Dragons and Baldur's Gate 3 to navigate, but the Priest's War Field subclass is even simpler and more forgiving in many ways. As a priest who focuses on melee combat, players will have a lot of health and can be equipped with the best heavy armor, shields, and ** to fight to the fullest.
With the extra attack, the player will deal a lot of damage and can eventually summon spirits or wards to fight them alongside, which is a simple way.
Fight with the beasts.
Early Game Features:
Ranger's Companion (Level 3): Summons a beast to fight with you.
Companion's Bond (Level 5): Adds a proficiency bonus to your companions, increasing their armor level and damage throw.
While the Ranger class is quite popular in Baldur's Gate 3, the Beast Master subclass is not, although players have the ability to fight alongside wolves, bears, crows, and more. As the player levels up, their furry or feathered companions also become stronger, and in later levels, they can even be used to help fallen characters.
Since many rangers usually enter the fight with a bow and arrow, having a beast in a melee position to stop enemies is always good for variety, and it adds a new dynamic to the game.
Change the result of the throw.
Early Game Features:
Divination Expert (Level 2): The cost of learning Xi divination spells from scrolls is halved.
Omen (Level 2): Use Omen Dice to change the attack throw and immunity throw.
Professional Divination (Level 6): Obtain another Omendice die and restore the used dice by completing the prophecy.
There are 8 mage subclasses in Baldur's Gate 3, making it one of the most diverse classes, and perhaps the most underrated of them is the school of divination. Perhaps because it doesn't have a unique form of magic, the soothsayer's dice and game-changing abilities are often overlooked.
At level 5, players will receive 3 Omen Dice for each short break, allowing them or their allies to achieve great success with important spells or attacks. Players who want to beat Baldur's Gate 3 in the latest and hardest honor mode may find that they need a soothsayer on their team.
Combine magic and force.
Early Game Features:
Spell Warrior Casting (Level 3): Learn Xi spells.
Bond (Level 3): By binding a piece, it will not fall and will return immediately when thrown.
The Spell Warrior subclass is one of the best options for players who want to experience the way Sword & Sorcery is played in Baldur's Gate 3, and when used with the right **, players can deal amazing damage and have a lot of fun. Aside from the fact that spell warriors can use a lot of great spells, the main feature of this class is around the bond, which allows the player to throw theirs and make it return instantly. There are also some ** in the game, such as one of the best warhammers, charged bondage warhammers, whose magic effects can only be unlocked when binding. Choosing the Tavern Fighter talent will cause the toss** to deal more damage.
Use the elements as an extension of the body.
Early Game Features:
Fire and Water Harmony (Level 3): Restores half of your gas points while not combat.
Elemental Disciple (Levels 3 & 6): Learn Xi unique elemental spells.
One of the most underappreciated subclasses in Baldur's Gate 3 is the Warrior Monk's Four Elements Dao subclass, although it's one of the most fun ways to play the game. This subclass is perfect for fans of The Last Airbender, where the player almost takes on the role of Aang, controlling the four elements in a unique way.
The list of elemental spells is mouth-watering, and you won't find anywhere else in the game. Of course, as with any Warrior Monk build, players need to Xi how the Habit Point works, but it's fairly intuitive and very different from the rest of the game's resources.
