to fk with her builds.. even if she was effectively useless, she'd be worth taking up a party slot for personality alone - good for positivity and laughs. Stack on that she's an absolute babe. 🔥She's my one perma-party companion, the rest may rotate in and out.

Currently playing this build, but with a duergar. Invisibility as a Cantrip is really OP, I can surprise nearly all of the enemies. I cant deal as much damage as Karlach's Soul Coin, but Enlarge can come close. I have begun using Resonance Stone with Manifestation of Mind and Psionic Overload to deal 2d4 + 6 Psychic Damage per punch which is then doubled thanks to "Steeped in Bliss".

I remember my first playthrough as a monk on table top, I couldn't stand it. I felt like I couldn't ever do any damage or anything. Playing a monk on BG3 is crazy OP. I love it. Favorite class

Love the Monk class! I picked this during one of my playthroughs expecting to respec into something else after a few levels and it turned out to be one of my favorites. Especially since you aren't fighting for gear with other party members during the run.

I like my Wood Half Elf, since it's gets prof in Pike and others and you can use a shield if you'd like with only losing the bonus speed. WIth tavern brawler the pike gives you a fun ranged attack throw if you want it.

If you play as a human or half elf there's a weapon in Act 3 that's perfect for a rogue/monk multiclass. The Dancing Breeze is a Glaive that's also a finesse weapon so it will take advantage of the sneak attack from rogue.

@@DellikkilleD monk weapons are any weapons you are proficient with, with the exception to 2 handed weapons which will automatically use your strength modifier. What makes the Dancing Breeze work specifically for a human or half elf is they have proficiency with Glaives and because The Dancing Breeze is the only 2 handed finesse weapon in the game (which means it scales with your Dex modifier anyway if that's higher,) you can use this as a monk weapon.

Astarion monk is overrated, waiting till late act 3 to get 5.5 avg boost for the low price of a genocide is not as good as getting 5 avg damage boost as early as before the first long rest of act 1. Necrotic is not a great damage type either as almost nothing is vulnerable to it, items don’t work with it and you can’t easily force vulnerability with arsonists oil. He’s a much better stealth archer / ranged DPS role

Some of monk's weaknesses: 1. Has limited selection of armor. 2. Benefits little from Haste or Speed Potion. Most builds instantly get "3 levels in Rogue" for free by being Hastened. 3. Has no good AOE damage. No, Ki Blast is not good. Almost every battle in BG3 involves numerous enemies, dealing big damage to a single target at a time, up close, is just bad action economy and bad survivability, and your monk probably has only 7 Ki points per battle.
