Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 class ascends to \u201cgodhood\u201d as it\u2019s so OP Larian StudiosThe Monk class in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 feels so overpowered that players think its best builds ascend to \u201cgodhood.\u201d Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 lets players customize their playstyle around a wide variety of classes, which range from Barbarian and Rogue to Warlock and Paladin. While each class comes equipped with its share of unique benefits, some have proven more powerful than others. Such is the case with BG3\u2019s Monk, a class that players have long labeled as overpowered. Late-game builds can especially shift the tide of battle by dealing an overwhelming amount of damage per turn. A user named Ok-Resolution-7290 sparked discussion about the Monk\u2019s formidability in a Reddit post, specifically highlighting how their respeced Astarion is so OP that he took out nine enemies after the rest of the party went down. Other BG3 players chimed in with their favorite respec options for Monk builds. For example, several people shouted out Karlach as an excellent Monk choice, especially since Soul Coins throws the character into an Infernal Fury state that imbues the Tiefling\u2019s basic attacks with fire damage. Another fan praised the \u201cLae\u2019zel monk\/barb multi-class\u201d build, noting that she can mess up enemies \u201cpretty hard.\u201d This version of the character arguably has a lethality like no other, further driving home the argument that Monks may count among the strongest of BG3\u2019s martial classes. In speaking about how overpowered Baldur\u2019s Gate 3\u2019s Monks can become, someone else said they\u2019re playing with \u201ca plain Jane pure dex monk with a polearm. And I still feel like I\u2019m getting closer to godhood with each level I take.\u201d The Paladin\u2019s pure damage output has positioned it as one of the most formidable BG3 classes, and the Wild Magic Barbarian can trample over just about anything in its path. However, it\u2019s clear players shouldn\u2019t discount Monks, especially when paired with the right Origins character.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
