Baldur's Gate 3: Wizard Build YOU NEED (Evocation)

hail and mesh's Adventures welcome to the world of battles gate 3. it's me says spawn King and today I present you my evocation wizard build so we'll attack every Target let's see so just like that as you can see we set up this imp with our fire bolt and increase its surface cluster fall of course we need to pick our race yeah first of all we need to pick our class which is a wizard and we can't pick our subclass just right now so we're starting as a wizard and for race we will pick and for today basic high elf we will unlock additional High F camtrip which is fire bolt and it's nice damaging spell nice damaging country so why not to use it additionally as elf we get ability to use long sword short bow Longbow and just in case an emergency it's like a nice and more reliable weapons than our stuff so we get additional dark vision to see happen in 212 to see up to 12 meters in the dark and fair ancestry we have advantage on Saints Rows against being Charmed and we can't be booted into sleep so pretty nice generic and good race for our wizard first of all we can pick 3 canned chips and just because they got awesome game chip for our range damaging cantip we can use shocking kerasp to have our melee can chip so just in case of emergency with we want to rely on any weapon we just can rely on our shaking grasp and then some utility can chips I like to use minor illusion and just because we have this dark vision we can use instead of that's a Glides our Mage can't so that's our game tips of choice then we go to our spell list and from all the Spells we can learn six spells right now so good choices will be I snipe for single Target nice damage Magic muscle for just reliable single or multi-target damage but a little bit lower than ice knife chander wave or burning chance depending on what you like more for our melee spell and some utility and defensive spells so we want Mage Armor maybe Shield so we won't be so squishy and we can use grease or Tasha hide a Slaughter depending on what you want additional good choices is sleep but I like to use grease just for fun so our background nice background is a Collide Sage maybe Noble but it doesn't matter too much and what it does matter is our abilities so skill proficiency pick whatever you like maybe you want more investigation maybe you want more history so you want to learn more about world of battles K3 while you're exploring this beautiful world but for now let's allocate our skill points so for our location of skill points we will use nothing into string Range 14 into decks 14 intercom 15 into intelligence which is our primary ability for our spell casting that will influence our chances to hit and our damage output with our spells we build them because it's like many attribute for saving throws most common attribute and Charisma because we got some points left so bonus points we will allocate plus 1 into intelligence and plus 2 into Constitution just like that we got pretty balanced nice wizard that is ready to go into the fight but not actually Reddit because we need to prepare for spells while we know six spells wizard users prepare spell mechanics so we need to actually think what we want to use before fight and your lineup of spells should look something like this maybe you are in some area with like fire Elementals then use ice knife because they will get disadvantage against this type of damage you can use magic Missile because everyone don't have resistance to force damage most of the time and you can use Chandra wave or grease depending on in what condition you are in what area you are let's using grease for now and you can use Shield so let's proceed to our game so how wizard Works wizard got awesome Arts about Arcane recovery charge so you can recharge your spell slots with this tool for example you can go into a character sheet you can go into a spell book and you can go here by pressing I or just using this inventory button and you have prepared spell here so you can just distract all spells remove them and pick your spelling up here don't forget we're using magic Missile ice knife and maybe you like to use Mage Armor or shield and you need to use them prior to fight and don't remove them from here and you won't be able to use any other spells so you can then know the Spells but you can't read them in from the book just imagine that wizard always holding the book that's kind of bookmarks so you got bookmarks on pages with magic Missile and just in the fight you open your book and cast magic missiles but when we start our day basically from casting our Mage Armor so right now we got armor class of 12. it's a really low armor class but after casting Mage Armor we will get 15 Armor class very nice very good armor class pretty reliable but now we lost our spell slot and that's how we work so after we cast in spells we're losing our spell slots and we won't be able to cut them in a battle but as we thought you can customage armors and you can go to Arcade recovery use Arcane recovery and recover your spell slot so right now in next fight we will be able to cast two spells of our choice and we can regain them only on Long Crest so you need camp supplies and go following Crest on the cam but you can use Skin chips how much times you want so we got range can trip and Milliken trip just like that and before we're going into early game fight let's level up a little bit so level 2 Wizards that's where we begin our subclass finally yep just a little too so subclass today we're making builds for a vacation we Wizard and yeah I got builds for every every class subclass every class in the pinned comment just make sure to check it out when they're ready there will be pinned comment with every build but for now you can just subscribe press the like button you know what to do so let's go to our spells spells right now we can have two additional spells but most importantly we can prepare one more spell so for now it doesn't matter too much we got already all spells that we need but maybe you want to have some fun with burning hands instead of gender wave maybe you want to learn sleep to have some fun or maybe you want to learn dashes hide us louder to put your enemies into awesome Unstoppable laughter state but for now let's just go to our level 3 that's where our build starting to go online so as a vacation wizard we're making evocation spells but our allies automatically succeed on the seventh rows when they standing in the Suffocation zones and you can have kind of two search which is right here the strategy is that you can go and pick any spells that is not a vacation spells and then Carl will try to find this evocation spell slot Scrolls or you can go and pick your best application spells and just forget about everything to check out what is the spell you just hover over it and to just to read level 2 obseration spell so it's not evocation spell but for example scorching gray is a vacation spell shutter is a vacation spell and we definitely want to pick shutter right now and another strong spell will be a scorching gray or cold person whatever you like I actually like music called person so we got one more spell to prepare and now we can prepare some level 2 spells of course we will prepare shutter so what this whole person it's basically called in Juanita enemies steel and unit concentrate on that I won't spoil you this game I will show you early game fights with this high level wizard so you don't have any spoilers that's why I can't show your whole person but I recommend to using whole person right now but let's first of all let's go to the fight so what do we have here first fight and how you will play actually in this early game Wizard so as application wizard will get a lot of evocation spells and most of them will require you saving throws so for example shutter is AOE spell and basically in this radius everyone need to succeed on saving throw because it damages all nearby creatures and objects so it won't be able to save your teammates but as a vacation wizard you can safely cast it on your teammates and they will succeed saving throw but it doesn't mean they won't take any damage because on successful savings roll they will have half damage so just read description of the Spells and just like that you can find a group of enemies and start your fight as a wizard with a shelter for example okay and we can end our turn additional cool part why we begin high elf as our vacation wizard because High F unlocks this Fireball game chip and we're using using Shack and grasp cantip and both of them is avocation school can chips so vacation is kinda spell Caster attacking school but of course you can use ice knife for example to eat your enemies with this spell it's really nice and useful spell too just pick a point and throw the size knife like Sub-Zero and if you're using Shield spells and you can use your reaction to just mitigate attack on you good spell is magic Missile of course you want to use it in White 2 so you can upcast it for more missiles if you are pass it you will have four missiles if you discuss it as level 1 spell slot you will cast only three missiles but it's totally okay and most targets will enjoy these three missiles going just into them with 100 chance so you don't need other crawls Magic's missiles always hit their targets and this is him just rolled 15 and you need 15 to hit us but we can use our reaction Shield to increase our Armor class by 5 so you missed so we can disengage a little bit puts his dut into Greece and when someone in the grease we can use Fireball to light up this surface so let's go and light up this imp with our fire bolt and increase its surface that's why I like to use grease so you can put grease on enemies and if there's fire and you can use a fire bolt as fire Source it will ignite just like that so that's how you play level 1 wizard level 3 wizard this is how you use your spells and have fun in this game but now let's go to level 12 but first 12 costs level 4 so at level 4 you get additional can chips you can pick whatever you like but for can chips I recommend to stick with evacation stuff so light is nice can trip or you can have different damage source so you got your Fire Sauce you got your eyes source as rare Frost and you got your so you can have three different sources of damage elements of damage now we get access to a lot more spells so whatever you like but again you can stick with evocation spells and why I tell you like it's nice idea to not sequence the vacation spells because you will have the spells in the spell Scrolls and you will learn them with a discount so that's why you can just ignore evocation spells but again we play an evocation wizard that's why we won't actually vacation spells so another good spell is coaching gray of course and very good spell is Mr step it's bonus action and you can kinda teleport wherever you like on the battlefield and as wizard is very like squishy class you most of the time want to actually have ability to teleport somewhere on the map so that's why we're using our missed step right now and we get additional feet for our feet we use with our build today spell snipers spell sniper feet will reduce the number we need to roll on the critical hit while attacking with a spell and it's reduced by one this effort can stack and we can use additional can chip so for the scan trip we can use eldrich blast it's a vacation cam chip so just we have all types of damage we're not warlock so we can't use ldshadow location of course Auto and whip is nice can tip 2 to just lure enemies into some traps but I will stick with eldrich blast so we got all types of elements in our disposal let's go to level 5 and now we get access to spells level 3 so for level three spells we want to consider Fireball as our vacation spell and another good one can be Contra spell its observation spell but it will nice when you fight in different creatures and another like guys who can use their magic so let's prepare our spells and on level 5 we can completely destroy our lineup of spells and of course we can still use Mage Armor we can use mist deceptor just teleport on the map we can use Contour spell and we can use hold person and now just decide what damage and spells you actually want to use so maybe it will be Fireball maybe it will be scorching gray and some Miller spells like burning cans and magic Missile for Reliable damage so something like this will be working on level 5. make sure to change your spells depending on the situation you are in so maybe you've seen some enemies that have low resistance or even vulnerable to fire damage that's when you want to pick a lot of spy spells so be flexible but on level 6 you unlock subclass Future potent can chips so your game chips becoming harder to evade entirely when equisha succeeds save and throw against one of your kinships it still takes half the game trips damage but suffer no additional damage efforts and to get additional spells for spells again pick something that will give you Variety in elements some lighting like lighting bolt and the glyph of barting for example very nice spells that give you a variety of elements when you cast it and when preparing spell just sync what you want to have and I remind you these are don't have a lot of spell slots so that's why you want to stickle with like one or two level high level spells for example level 3 spells so you just need to decide before the fights do you want Fireball license bolt and then pick lower level spells it's just more reliable stuff to do Shield is always worth it for example so let's go to level seven and on level 7 we'll unlock our level 4 spells for level 4 I will stick again with different elements full of Fire and Ice Storm always consider to use dimension door to travel through the bite with your ally you can save your life you can save yourself reposition yourself into better place and reposition in two characters instead of one like with Mr step is very nice so you will use your action to reposition you and your lie until I can attack in this turn on level 8 our wizard gaining new feed and this feat will be ability Improvement and three dumping plus 2 into intelligence to have a lot more strange in our abilities you know we will inflict a lot more damage with our buildings so we pick more spells and right now we need to think actually what you need of spells so dimension door is nice big fire Shield is very nice evocation spell too it can make like fire Shield but also a cold Shield depending on what elements you want and I guess you already see where are we going we're making our evacuation wizard with focus on two elements and once so we got a lot of spells from fire elements and a lot of spells from Ice element and on level 5 spells on level 9 with that level 5 spells I recommend to pick Cloud kill for our poison spell and cone of code for another ice spell to have nice damage so let's go to level 10 and here we're gaining one more can tip and just because we have this potential by recommend to pick in Poison spray very nice damage from the skin chip so it's like but it's a reliable source of damage you will gain 2 more spells but actually we got all spells we need right now so pick whatever spell you want and using that is fun for example maybe you want wall of stone you want to have some fun with this wall of stone maybe you want to play with elemental still we are evocation wizard but we can use all spells so this conjura Elemental spell is available to us and we can use our Elemental friend so we're going on level 11 and now we got unlocked level 6 spells for level 6 spells there is two very nice ones chain lighting of course and its main evocation spell for our damage chain linking is just incredible and the globe of invulnerability is nice speak if you need some like protection another good evocation Peaks will be full of fires just crazy damage from 20 to 120 damage and freezing Sphere for 10 to 60 damage so let's pick chain lighting control of fights for now because we are just crazy attacking Wizard and on level 12 which is like last level of this game we can learn more spells and we will learn this freezing sphere whatever you like actually so we can use Sunbeam for example we got 16 prepared spell at this level so you can totally forget all spells that you was using just before and use all new spells that you like but again you won't have available too much like spell slots and we will create the Spells just in a moment but now we need to pick our feet and there's a lot of good Feats actually that we can use right now so we can use War Caster to keep our concentration going on because right now we have some concentration Spells at least from Level 5 most land level 6. another good stuff is Elemental adapt so your spells ignore the resistances too a damage type of your choice and basically if you like to use fire damage so cold damage then go for Elemental add depth but if you like to use a variety of magic and you don't want to stick with like this cold damage a lot go for a built Improvement and dump plus 2 into intelligence it will just give you stable bonus to damages but for my build we're going for Elemental adapt and with called Magic or enlightened magic because it's like most powerful high level spells as you can hear so let's go and show you this late game Monster In Action but first of all of course we came here to see this level 6 spells what is like Basic Spell book rule will be we got one level six spell slot and we can recover only only spell slots from Level 5 so just well like basic Mass we can have three spell Slots of level 5 per day this means you can't have more than three spells of level 5 and it's like doesn't make any sense if you have more than three spells so I recommend you to stick with like one two or three spells from level one maybe three to four spells of level two three to four spells of level 3 and this will leave you around 6 spells from higher levels so you can use like three spells from level four like two from Level 5 and around to like 2 from level six but right now let me just show you spells that you can use in this game wall of ice you just pick one place and another place and as you can see the slide very large radius will create great ball of eyes that will inflict large amounts of damage and can just make this and make everyone prone very useful very strong spell of later levels but of course it's level 6 spell don't forget it so another cool spells is chain lighting of course and it will create lighting that will go around all Targets in its range very strong too One More Level 6 stuff is this Auto looks freezing sphere and you can do it with two different options you can create the sphere right away and most fun Parts you can create portable freezing sphere and you can give the spear to your Ally and to your like and just use it and throw it and use as little snowball that will create this sphere of stuff so very funny stuff so you can create like a nice freezing bomb in advance of fire to give it to your Barbarian give it to your fighter and he will use it instead of you so count your Elemental there's a lot of Elementals just pick whatever Elemental you like and he will assist you in a fight he have a lot of abilities most of them have really nice stuff most of them can fly so you can use fly action just fly wherever you like and attack with nice damage and pretty nice stats 123 HP nice uh like character card so we're in the trunks really strong dude of course we got sunbeams this is like AOE spells that create Sunbeam and attacks everyone on its boss blinding them blinding your enemies and making 6 to 48 radiant damage it's like our list used already a damage type in our wizard build but it's nice to have it so for level 5 spells we got this Elemental we got Cloud kill it will create this cloud of toxic gas and everyone could go in in this toxic gas will have a pretty nice damage inflicted to them but this Elemental is immune to this damage so we won't kill this dude because she will die instantly she is low level so cool of cold is nice cone spelled it attacks in Triangle and area of effort is really large as you can see it will create this icy attack will freeze your enemies very nice very strong from 8 to 64 damage and of course wall of stone so if you want to affect your Battlefield and make it harder for enemies to just go through some maybe you want to block some enemies then you use this wall this wall doesn't do any damage so it's like zero damage spell but you can make some nice better fields that will help you and your teammates and will make harder for enemies to hit you so for levels four spells we're using ice storm this little Jack creating this icy surface and completing storm damage and as you can see this wall just destroyed by storm so you can actually attack this wall usually it's have HP 30 HP build per piler so you just use it Elder is Glaston destroy this wall oh of course you got a wall of fire so if you want to create some plier surface if you want to attack your enemies with firewall it's nice too and for someone like roll of stone is useful but for someone you know you can create wall of stone and then just Fireball enemies in the Trap whatever you like actually or you can run away from your enemies you can create for example wall of stone and then just use this dimensional teleport you choose your target to teleport and you choose your destination to teleport and change your destination into attack from different area just like that so that's useful spells that's how you can play as wizard and let me show you him in a fight of course so late game Wizard in a fight have his Elemental to help him in this fight actually and have variety of spells to use so for example you just need to go and check out Battlefield and decide what is best spells to use right now most of the time you will use this chain lighting and chain lighting basically picking Target and in this area around this target you'll attack every Target that's it so just like that as you can see with single spell you can destroy a wall battlefield but when you used your level 6 spells you won't have any spell slots from Level 6 and you can decide what you need to do next maybe you want to reposition for example use dimension door on your nearby Target and the position you have somewhere where you see just like that so you have a better angle in the fight additionally don't forget your cantrip is just crazy and doing pretty nice damage from C to certain damage will just fire bolt or you can use large variety of other spells maybe you just need some Fireballs to cast on this poor souls maybe you want to use Glee for boarding and it uses a lot of different effects it can put your targets into sleep it can to make like poison damage on any other damage that you want as it's a used and basically most of the time it's used like trap so you put this glyph into an enemy steps on it it's activates so it's like really nice trap but as you can see it's up duration spell so our allies don't have this ability to negotiate damage from this spell but as you can saw already Fireball doesn't do any damage to our lives just because we we are evocation Wizard and Fireball is a vacation spell that's like best part of the wizard so you can use this evocation spells and not really destroy your team because other builders when they use Fireball your team and your party crying I hope you enjoyed this wizard evocation build from me go watch other videos about battles get trees on the skin right now it's cool really funny videos and make sure to check to be in the comment because I got a lot of stuff in there if it's already ready see you in the next videos guys
