The Best Sorlock Multiclass Build for Baldur's Gate 3

 Jul 24, 2024

A strong multiclass construct from D&D 5th Edition, the Sorlock Multiclass also functions admirably in Baldur's Gate 3. It creates a single blaster character that synergistically combines the greatest aspects of the Warlock and Sorcerer classes.

Ways to Construct a Sorlock in Baldur's Gate III

Since Charisma is your primary ability and is utilized by both Warlocks and Sorcerers, you may create one of the best multiclass builds in BG3 by combining your Sorcerer and Warlock levels. To ensure that you don't squander any Ability points or levels, the remaining tasks include establishing synergy with everything else.

Initial Level and Level Advancement

Reaching the first three Sorcerer levels and the first two Warlock levels is your objective. Your competence with Saving Throws is determined by the class you choose initially. You'll get higher Constitution saving throws if you choose the Sorcerer class initially, and better Wisdom saving throws if you start as a level 1 Warlock.

Select the Draconic Bloodline for its defensive qualities and the Fiend subtype for more Temporary Hit Points. For the notorious Eldritch Blast Metamagic combination, you will also choose the Quicken Spell Metamagic.

Sorlocks' Finest Race

To be honest, in Baldur's Gate 3, race doesn't really matter all that much. While there isn't a decision that would significantly impede your development, it may be a good idea to max your charisma early on if you are a race that grants a +2 to an Ability. Nevertheless, certain races aren't really functional. High elves, for example, have access to a cantrip, but using it requires intellect.

Nevertheless, there's always a way to make the best decisions possible. You will get from the Charisma-based ability Infernal Legacy if you pick the Tiefling class. Githyanki Psionics is also a really useful tool. Additionally, drows employ charisma for their Drow Magic ability.

Greatest Spells and Cantrips

Which higher-level spells you choose will depend on how you want to use this setup. To get a blaster build with a lot of Eldritch Blasts, just level up from two Warlock to full Sorcerer. This build is rather manageable. Choose your favorite spells, then utilize meta magic to accelerate or enhance the amount of spells you can cast by casting a lot of Eldritch Blasts.

Alternatively, you may want to look into spells like Hunger of Hadar if you want to explore the capabilities of the Fiend Patron and make use of the Warlock's twice-per-combat maximum spell-casting. For the Quicken Spell and Twin Spell metamagics, be sure to employ the Warlock's Thirsting Blade feature and strive to level up as a Sorcerer to the third level.
