Why the Fighter Is the Best Class in Baldur’s Gate 3

ESTNN writes: "Among Baldur's Gate 3's many achievements as a D&D sim is the flawless translation of its iconic class system in the videogame medium. Among them are Fighters, daring adventurers who do one thing really well. And while this choice seems lackluster at first glance, there are tons of perks that make this classic role the most dependable choice in Larian Games' latest masterpiece."

Not even close. It's the bard. Charisma, skill proficiency, spells, and money making music.

I always go for the rogue/sorcerer types of characters, but I just might hit up the classic fighter for my first playthrough. Nah, I'm lying to myself, it'll be rogue/sorcerer.

Why would you give up all that versatility and fun stuff to play with just so you can hit two more times a round at level 12?

"That's a good thematic and practical choice"

I also play DnD with friends with a Oath of Devotion Paladin (now subclassed with a Twilight Cleric). Vanilla Paladin is my favourite class.

I'd probably go with Paladin so I can tank and heal.

I'm actually currently 3 bard 2 paladin (won't take anymore levels in paladin). I'm also an orc so I can do 3x the damage instead of 2x when I crit and apply smite damage.

That's a good thematic and practical choice.

All the proficiency, a few extra spells and blast blast blast is my first playthrough.

This actually sounds like fun.

Nice. I got a month to think about it since I decided to get this on PS5

Matter of opinion especially in an opinion piece article

You can literally pick any other class and you would be more correct than this article.
