Baldur's Gate 3 Build: Endless Critical Hits Monk Build Level 1-12! (Best Build Guide)

in this Baldur's Gate 3 guide I'm going to show you a very good monk build that is actually a multi-class build we get lots of crits we do big damage and it's all around just a great build to use so if you're wanting to use Monk and you're wanting to mix it up then this could potentially be the build for you and I'll show you what you need to do from level one all the way to level 12. so you could map out this build for your playthrough so let's jump into this tutorial and I'll show you this Baldur's Gate 3 build with the Monk class that is absolutely devastating and you get lots of crits alright guys so the first thing we're going to do in this build is choose our race and we're going to go with the half this is because when you land a critical hit with a melee weapon attack your damage dice I tripled instead of doubled and we also get Relentless endurance which is very good if you reach zero hit points you regain one hit point instead of being downed and then we also have dark vision and we have base racial speed we obviously going with the Monk class and most people people here pick Soldier I go with Outlander because they get Survival the abilities I'm going to go through this uh right now we have strength this is basically a primary strength build dexterity 14 uh Constitution 14 we are going to put some points into this a little bit later to get these numbers even but this is the build that we are going with right now and these are the abilities and these are the ability points that we have on our build all right for level two we now get patient defense where we get attack rolls against you have disadvantage and you have an advantage on dexterity saving throws when they get step of the wind double your movement speed jump no longer requires a bonus action which is very good and then we have this one here which is Retreat to safety by disguising jump no longer requires that bonus action from level two to three where you're gonna go away with the open hand and we now get Flurry of Blows topple we now get Flurry of Blows stagger stagger is very powerful so punch twice in quick succession and stagger the target making it unable to take reactions and also fluria blows push this is also very good we can push enemies back so push twice in quick succession and possibly push the target five meters away this is very good when you're playing and there's like a cliff beside you or a cliff behind the enemy I should say and this works very well just generally in most situations where you can push monsters off Bridges close and things like that now at this level essentially you want to use your main attack first over these ones so I'm gonna go do a Man attack and this guy 80 has success and because this was only an action we can go ahead and use one of these as well as these will now take a bonus action and key points so I'm going to go with the Stagger on this guy and show you let's zoom in and see if we get some action here and we actually killed him because we're quite strong at this point in time but that's how I would play this class at this point in time is by using your main attack first and then going ahead and using these to either finish enemies off stagger them top of them push them whatever you want to do but that's how I've been using this particular setup now at level four we are going with Tavern brawler and we're going to go and put a go ahead and put a point into strength so now our strength is even at 18. level four to five we're gonna go and get an extra attack this is very good and also get these actions stunning strike melee and also get stunning strike unarmed as well and we also get an additional key Point level six quite a bit happens here we get another key point we get some improved unarmored movement and we also get key and powered strikes and we also get uh three passives that we could potentially use you can only use one of these at a time and then we get another action which is wholeness of body which is very good as well you get 18 healing and it also regains half your key points and interest uh temporary state of wholeness now what that means is when you use your key points you can use this action and not only do you get healing you get some key points back then from level six to seven we are now going to get evasion and Stillness of mind so level eight this is what you essentially want to do with this particular build is you want to have your strength of 18 Dex 14 Constitution 14 intelligence uh 10 so we just put another Point into that to get our intelligence from -1 to zero and then wisdom we go uh plus one to plus two we need wisdom for our passives and then Charisma we are leaving at eight so this is what you want to do from level seven to level eight now this is where you start to multi-class there is a couple of ways you can do this now a lot of builds Focus around Barbarian at this point I'm going to have another video on that soon about a monk and Barbarian update from my last video so make sure you subscribe for that build and this one we're going to go ahead and focus on the fighter style and that's because we get sick in Wind which is very helpful and we also gets some other good features in a minute now I am going to get some people asking about wisdom and why I got put my wisdom up in to 14 well because wisdom helps with our damage and also with our armor with this particular build now I did forget to pick something before and that was my fighting style on the last one you want to pick defensive that is what I chose now on this one you want to stick to fighter so we're not going to level up and we now get action surge so immediately gain an extra action to use this turn we're going to go accept now this one we there's a few things we've kind of got to focus on here so we're not going to worry about any of this because we're going to go of champion and the reason why is because we get the subclass feature improved critical hit the number you need to roll a critical while attacking is reduced by one this effect can stack this is a very powerful subclass feature and works very well with this particular build so we are going to be going with champion now from a level 11 to level 12 we're going to go with ability Improvement we're going to stack it into strength and this is going to max out our strength and this is exactly the numbers that you want for this particular build so let's go check it out and see how this thing goes all right guys I know this is the starter area and we are way too overpowered for this but I'm just showing you how this works as you can see we've got a critical hit there and now we have an extra attack so we can essentially to the main attack again the extra attacks only work on the ones that are highlighted so I'm going to actually do a main attack again another critical hit now on this build we also get the deflective missiles if you don't know how that works reduce the damage from range weapon attacks by one d10 plus your dexterity modifier plus your monk level if the damage is reduced to zero you use a key point to deflect the missile and then we also get the option to shoot it back as you just saw then and we killed the enemy now here we're going to do a main attack again and we missed that one we get an extra attack we can do throw we can do improvised melee weapon and I'm going to do stunning strike this time around and we've got another critical and then we also get a we can do this we can do immediately again an extra action to use this turn and I'm going to do Flavia blows stagger we did another critical hit and I'm also going to go action surge and we're going to get another turn and I'm going to go ahead and do stunning strike again that does use a key Point that's okay and we missed that time then I also get another extra attack with the main hand attack so this is just a massive crit attack I don't even know how many attacks we just had then but we did a lot of attacking all right guys so that is a very good monk fighter build I do have a monk Barbarian Build coming out soon so make sure you subscribe for that and I'll see you in the next video
