Creating the Hexblade in Baldur’s Gate 3
The Hexblade class, known for its power in the tabletop RPG Dungeons and Dragons, has made a remarkable entry in Baldur’s Gate 3. For players looking to optimize their character, a multiclass dip into Hexblade can offer significant benefits.
Gameplay Integration After engaging in multiple sessions with the Hexblade in Baldur’s Gate 3, I’ve noticed just how seamlessly this class integrates with the game’s mechanics. Starting a new game in Honour Mode, where I’ve taken two out of three of my characters as Hexblades, has proven it’s almost overpowered.
Key Features of the Hexblade This class shines particularly with Charisma-based builds, boosting characters that depend on that stat, such as Paladins, Sorcerers, and Warlocks. Here are the standout features of multiclassing into Hexblade:
- Access to various powerful spells including Shield and the ability to make melee weapons use Charisma for attack rolls.
- A unique curse feature that raises critical chances significantly.
- Proficiency in shields, medium armor, and martial weapons, making your character versatile in combat.
Overall, the Hexblade offers deep advantages for those looking to enhance their gameplay in Baldur’s Gate 3, providing both robust abilities and flexibility across different character classes.
