BROKEN Paladin Build in Baldur's Gate 3 | BG3 Honour Mode Build Guide

even strongest Paladin in balos Gate 3 Misses almost every turn but in latest patch one spell got secretly buffed so now you can have almost 100% chance to hit this juicy smites on your enemies and let me show you this broken build first of all we need to create our character if you create an character for hunor mod and want save a choice go for half orc half orc gives disability Relentless endurance if you reach zero hit points you regain one hit point instead of becoming down very nice ability to be able to get up and run away from the fight on honor mode but if you want more beautiful character than these Orcs and H Orcs you can go for someone like elf elf is nice choice for Paladin they naturally get this Proficiency in dark vision and pay ancestry to being able to be saved from being Charmed and being put into sleep and it's better to pick someone like wood elf to get additional movement speed in battle but basically any race will work but I would recommend to stay away from short races like dwarfs and goms because they got low racial movement speed and you want to run around as Paladin a lot as Melee character starting class is Paladin and O of Vengeance o of vengeance is broken and you will see why it's really crazy it will blow your mind so for background go for persuasion or intimidation so it's either Soldier Guild Artisan or Noble I like Soldier more to get Athletics proficiency to and if you want to make this Paladin as powerful as possible go with this stat distribution we're going with 17 into strength 10 dexterity 14 Constitution 16 Charisma and we dumping intelligence and wisdom this stats considering you can get plus one bonus to strength in the game then potion of plus two and then we will get ability point in grease and make our strength 22 flat but if you don't know how to do it or you're not planning to do it start with 16 strength and 10 into wisdom that's will be best start distribution so it's time to level up on second level pick fighting style and for my build we're going for great weapon fighting you will get access to more spells but more this later because palon will get access to the Spells anytime so I will just explain what spells good and what you can use and Main level is level three that's where you becoming o of Vengeance Paladin actually most important future here is actions and to get in this wo en action which will give you advantage on a cross against enemies and abjure enemy you can fight an enemy this will use your channel o charges which replenishes on short rests additionally as o of Vengeance you will get pain and Hunter's Mark spells so you can cast Hunter Mark bonus action on enemy and and it will do additional damage when you hit this enemy and finally level four that's where you get your feet choice so for our fit of choice we're going for great weapon Master when you land a critical heat or kill a target with melee attack you can make another melee weapon attack as bonus action so it gives you additional attack on level four if you're killing creatures or making Critical Hits but most importantly you can turn on paive and you will get minus five to attack rolls but every attack you make will make flat 10 damage and that's insane so how we can play this early game level for Paladin and why he so broken everything we need for early levels is actually different smites and basically for all levels we don't need any other spells from Paladin list so just pick sing Smite which will give additional fire damage Thunder Smite additional Thunder damage and make targets prone sometime and ver will Smite it will possibly frighten targets and do additional psychic Dam damage so depending on target resistances which you can check by pressing right click and examine them and you can see resistances you can pick different damage types but bre and butter of every Paladin is of course Smite Divine Smite add in 2 d8 radiant damage for level one spell slot and that's like most impressive damage for ear game level one characters and it will scale even more in late game so make sure to go to reactions and turn on your reactions and ask but so whenever you attack your enemies you will be prompted with do you want to use Divine Smite it will be prompted only if you're not killing them so you can just check if it's not enough damage to kill them you can use Smite and it's also very nice idea to drop your pive on your hot bar so here I got my great weapon Master Allin paive and let me just show you it in a battle so as you can see we got 50% chance to hit leel right now your armor class is 16 so it's really hard to to hit 16 Armor class characters in early game especially with great weapon Master ly so it's better to turn this off sometime and get high chance to hit and at this point of the game you basically not using Inquisitor to might anymore it will add three R and damage to your attacks and gain death enemies for two turns it will use Channel o charge and because we got only one channel all charge we actually want to use wo enmity I always liked when Eng Paladin because on stronger enemies you can use wow enmity cast it on them and you will get Advantage for 10 turns against bosses so it's really strong stuff but in the new patch in patch five they silently buffed this spell so now you can use W enity not on enemy but on yourself as bonus action and look at this so now without any concentration without any stuff I got advantage on attack RS against every enemy this means my hit chance is basically 99% with Advantage I roll into dices I can't critical M almost can't so it's like 1% chance to critical Miss and that's great future to have when you using great weapon Master l so as this early game character Paladin can basically one shot every enemy with great weapon masterin do incredible damage and just destroy everyone because I'm not having right now great weapon right now in my hands as you can see we got pred for for divine Smite so I'm not killing this him I can use Divine Smite and finish him with Divine Smite for 16 damage that's really insane amount of damage so that's basically a safest way to play as paladin on hunor mod just cast W enmity before fight right before fight or instantly in the fight it uses only bonus action so you can still attack with normal attacks easily and if you need use sering Sands of rful smite to inflict damage types or you can use your level level one spell slot but I would use it on high levels or only versus bosses to inflict one the6 damage every attack when you hit attack this will be second turn spell so basically we using Hunter Mark and now we effectively like Tri tripling out damage so damage is basically insane for this Paladin and if you're using great weapon or even normal weapon you can do additional damage after killing creater as bonus action with great weapon master all in so as you can see we can use bonus action to inflict one more attack so this spell alone makes Paladin broken especially wance Paladin because only he got this spell let's finish leveling up and I will show you build so level five we get an extra attack now we can use two attacks with one action we're getting some more smites magic weapon I like to use it basically using level two spell slot and while you concentrating on this spell your weapon got additional plus one damage and plus one chance to hit enemies so that's nice bonus to have but after level five there's not a lot of useful stuff if you want to have Paladin as damage dealer that's why on level six we want to add class and switch to sorcerer by leveling sorcerer you will get a lot of spell slots and this means a lot of smiles as sorer you can pick different gships that you like to use and have fun you won't use them a lot because you got your powerful weapon so you can have some fun stuff like poison spray AET Splash it can reduce any Armor class shocking grasp sometime you just need this shock damage and maybe even fire bolt if you need some fire as for spells again you will use your spell slots mostly for your Smite so I would pick something like magic Missile just in case you need 100% hit chance to finish down one hit point enemy and maybe something like enhance lip or feather fall outside of the combat the Spells is ritual so you can use them without spell slots just basic spells and for our subclass plus I would go with draconic bloodline and I would pick white dragon as draconic bloodline sorer you will you will get more hit points and this means our Paladin will become more tankier and additionally white gold dragon gives us armor of a gatus and we can use it in late game to be even more tankier with additional hit points on level seven you can pick twin spell and distant spell sometime you can use the soci points to use double spells but that's like very nich situations most of the time you're not using it and for spells again I like to pick just exploration stuff like enh can sleep level eight we continue our sorer journey I like to pick knock to open some doors and chests and of course metam magic quick and spells so we can use spells as bonus action but again we not using them too much level 9 we get an additional Feit so right now we just want to have more strength it will give us more damage and more chances to hit enemies another Fe it's to think about is Sentinel so when you standing nearby your your Li when someone attacking them you will be prompted with reaction so you can attack enemies that attack your light and they will be stuck in place so your lights can run away Sentinel is a nice Feit but we can be like Bully and go for strength and basically we're finishing with sorer again we don't care about spells so you can pick any spells you like it doesn't matter and now it's time to look on gear we want to have on our character so in act one most powerful weapon is any great weapon you can find I Will Show You by the end of this video how to get best weapon for Palin for act one and mostly your builds will start to manage and develop in act two so let's start from the helmet H helmet this is early game helmet and when you start in combat you will gain momentum for three turns this gives you a lot of movement speed and you can run to your targets and hit them so very nice helmet then cloak of protection this just gives you more Armor class our armor class won't be too high because we're not wearing Shield when we play in this build we're playing with weapon which will be two-handed so it's nice to have more Armor class just by using cloak then by the end of First Act you can build this armor it's adamantine splint armor very strong armor reduces all incoming damage by two when you get hit by melee attack you can send enemy really and you can't be critical heated so attackers can't land critical heat on the re very nice armor on act two you can go for dwen splint male if you don't want this armor on Paladin it have it have additional Armor class a little bit weaker but Constitution plus two so we will get more hit points really nice armor too as you can see our hit points just skyrocketed by 20 on last levels so two Constitution is nice bonus but at the end of act two I recommend going for Reapers embrace all incoming damage is reduced by two and you got pfes that you can't be moved against your will by any spell or action so you just come to your enemy and stand still very nice armor very nice and strong strong armor basically until late game or even in the late game so next for gloves you can pick any gloves before act two in act two I recommend using infernal iron with diamond and get this float hell dusk gloves this will add additional fire damage to your weapon and in act two you can buy evasive shoes so it's Armor class plus one again more armor and just like that our character can have around 20 armor class it's considered really high Armor class so it's nice to have 19 Armor class now let's go to weapons so again act one weapon I will show you just in a second but act two weapon is Halbert of vigilance buy it you can buy it from Traer that's crazy weapon it got4 fire damage from our gloves it got one for Force damage from its own you gain plus one bonus to initiative rolls and when you using reaction to attack when enemies try to run away from you you're doing it with Advantage so that's nice to have too so as you can see it's really scary and Powerful Paladin additionally in act two you can have a lot of purle warm toxins buy it whenever you see it you can craft these toxins and this toxin is insane so you just cat your weapon and your weapon starting to do additional one 10 poison damage so really powerful buff to your weapons and my ring combination for this build will be crush your ring this act one ring will give you 3 m movement speed then killer sweetheart you can find it in act two when you kill creature your next attack roll will be critical heat so very powerful ability and surgeon's AMOLED so when you scoring critical heat on humanoid you can paralyze this humanoid for two turns and land a lot more critical hits very nice combinations and Gain human enemies and he will find a lot of human enemies in act three so as you can see late game Paladin looks really strong doing crazy amount of damage and really high hit chance and when I turn on W enmity even with great weapon masterin I will get 75% hit chance that's crazy so we just destroying enemies easily when you go into act three our finished build will be with Sero horn helmet so number you need to roll for cisal is reduced by one very strong stuff we strong helmet we can change aive shoes if we don't need this one armor class for boots of persistence it will give us freedom of movement and long Strider but I like to keep AAS of shoes and you can buy Legacy of Masters at Damon to gain plus two bonus to attacks and damage rolls with weapons we using weapons so we getting instantly plus two to attack rolls and now with W en we got 84% chance to hit High armor targets and that's insane additionally that shot bow will reduce this number to land critical Again by one so you can just Cube this bow you can buy it from Trader and your number to do critical even with a sword will be reduced very strong bow and then for weapons in act three my starting weapon for act three would be continue with this Halbert or get nura if you know how to get it or if you accidentally will get it with Nur you can equip Shield or just use it with two weap with two hands it's do additional one this takes Thunder damage so really strong weapon for act three especially for beginning and then you want to get baluran Giant Slayer to finish this build so two-handed sword incredible damage that will add your strengths to your damage rolls sorry to your damage yeah to damage rolls basically so if not rolls it flat damage of your strength it's a really crazy sword and this late game Palin will look something like this alone so you you can cast armor foros on yourself it will give you 25 temporary hit points on max level you can cast magic weapon you can even upcast it for example by level four spell slot and this will add additional damage and additional enchantment use V enmity in the fight and just look at this we got 94% chance to hit enemies with at least 16 AC because we are saer we can create spell slots so we can use saer points we got seven saer points to create spell slots I like to create spell slot of level three and of course of level one so now we can basically land smites of level one five times then three times smites of level two four smites of level three and three smites of level four so there's a lot of smites let's go and land them and before we land them I will show you how to get best weapon for Palin in act one so basically on this tutorial ship you want to go to this room where this guys live line unconscious and then to this room before final fight you will find the troll over here and just pick up this ELD sh then get back to the first room with this guys who is unconscious and use this touch panel so just use your elited wisdom check you should pass it most of the time and you will get Shadow heart over here so we need to wake you up and before going to the final battle of this tutorial level you need to go to Shadow heart and change your spells instead of Shield of face pick command and with two spell Slots of level one as Shadow heart you will get two attempts to do this stuff so pick command and there is command drop it will force enemy to drop his weapon we got 55% chance on tacti on hunor mod so it's basically 50/50 let's try this out and as you can see weapon dropped now when weapon is dropped just uh get your character use Dash action make a jump so you travel more distance and go and try pick up this blade that's basically it that's the idea and when you get this blade it's really strong and powerful blade let me use bonus action to travel R here and pick up this blade so ever burn blade will do plus two slashing damage 2 D6 plus our strength and 1 D4 fire damage incredible weapon for ear game so commander shul is level eight enemy and actually you will see a lot of enemies of around level 8 level 10 in act three with this High armor class so 18 is really high there is not a lot of them with 18 and against this enemies you will have 88% chance to hit your shots look at this shots just look at this shots so we basically doing normal attack and that's flat 28 damage so it's basically doing 2 D6 from our for plus five for plus our strength it's four plus our strength one more time it's four we can have five if you have all bonuses at this point plus 10 platform great weapon Master Alin and plus two from arming enchantment so that's crazy damage don't forget to turn on all your smites as reactions always do it so we got a lot of smites even of level five and right now I will be prompted with a lot more Smite options so let's just upcast it to level four and this damage is just insane so we're basically doing almost same damage 68 from smites and you can do it a lot of times because as sorcerer you got a lot of spell slots so killing enemies is really easy task and if you think this Paladin is really powerful you need to watch my best builds for hunor mod because you can make him a lot more powerful with balanced body so make sure to go and watch it on the screen right now and see you in the next videos
