I love the Arcane Archer class fantasy\u2060\u2014it&#8217;s an old favorite from 3E D&#038;D, Neverwinter Nights, and Pillars of Eternity\u2060\u2014and I think its enchanted arrows will beat out or at least match Battlemaster Maneuvers. Plus, they&#8217;re just more fun. Toss in the War Cleric level right at the end for its <strong>Channel Divinity<\/strong> ability to make a weapon attack as a bonus action three times per long rest, all on top of the three attacks per round you get as an 11th level Fighter.<\/p>\n<p>In the early game, <strong>Titanstring Bow <\/strong>(+Strength bonus to ranged attacks) plus <strong>Club of Hill Giant Strength<\/strong> (set Strength to 19) plus <strong>Sharpshooter <\/strong>(+10 damage, -5 to hit) can absolutely melt enemies, provided you can hit them through the Sharpshooter penalty. That&#8217;s something that makes <strong>Arrow of Seeking<\/strong> stand out to me: It&#8217;s a self-sufficient way to guarantee Advantage on enemies in Act 1. <strong>Arrow of Grasping<\/strong> offers great single target damage and crowd control, while the jury&#8217;s still kind of out on <strong>Piercing Arrow<\/strong>. No matter what, it will be a great source of early-game AoE damage. Early reports are that it and Arrow of Seeking do not receive the Sharpshooter bonus to damage\u2060\u2014if that changes in the full release, it will be a game changer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Leveling guide:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol start=\"1\">\n<li>Fighter 1, Archery Fighting Style<\/li>\n<li>Fighter 2, Action Surge<\/li>\n<li>Arcane Archer 3, Seeking, Grasping, Piercing Arrow<\/li>\n<li>Arcane Archer 4, Sharpshooter<\/li>\n<li>Arcane Archer 5, Extra Attack<\/li>\n<li>Arcane Archer 6, +2 Dexterity<\/li>\n<li>Arcane Archer 7<\/li>\n<li>Arcane Archer 8, Alert<\/li>\n<li>Arcane Archer 9, Indomitable<\/li>\n<li>Arcane Archer 10<\/li>\n<li>Arcane Archer 11, Improved Extra Attack<\/li>\n<li>War Cleric 1, War Priest<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-balduran-s-giant-giantslayer\"><span>Balduran&#8217;s Giant Giantslayer<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:3840px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"b4ytaU27CL3JrF7bF5Aw63\" name=\"barb_01.png\" alt=\"A blood-stained warrior with a large axe in Baldur's Gate 3.\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/im-a-baldurs-gate-3-honour-mode-sicko-and-these-are-the-4-new-subclass-builds-im-most-excited-for-in-patch-8-1.png\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"3840\" height=\"2160\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Larian Studios)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"giant-barbarian-10-fighter-2-6\">Giant Barbarian 10 \/ Fighter 2 \ud83d\udcaa<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Key abilities: <\/strong>Giant&#8217;s Rage, Boot of the Giants, Elemental Cleaver, Tavern Brawler, Mighty Impel<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key items: <\/strong>Returning Pike, Ring of Flinging, Gloves of Uninhibited Kushigo, Balduran&#8217;s Giantslayer<\/p>\n<p><strong>Starting Stats:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Str: 17<\/li>\n<li>Dex: 14<\/li>\n<li>Con: 16<\/li>\n<li>Wis: 10<\/li>\n<li>Int: 8<\/li>\n<li>Cha: 8<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A throwmancer Barbarian whose superiority to a Berserker\/Thief remains to be seen, but they certainly seem more fun.

The offhand attack will give more versatility when you don&#8217;t want to spend Sorcery points, while an upcasted Shadow Blade&#8217;s ceiling of 4d8 Psychic damage, plus multiple Charisma bonuses from the Potent Robe and <strong>Diadem of Arcane Synergy <\/strong>will have an insane combo with the Psychic damage vulnerability-inducing <strong>Resonance Stone.<\/strong> Critical hit Divine Smites from stacked sources of improved Critical Chance are just the cherry on top.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"1\">\n<li>Hexblade 1<\/li>\n<li>Oath of Vengeance 1<\/li>\n<li>Oath of Vengeance 2, Divine Smite<\/li>\n<li>Sorcerer 1<\/li>\n<li>Sorcerer 2<\/li>\n<li>Sorcerer 3, Quicken Spell, (Shadow Blade unlock)<\/li>\n<li>Sorcerer 4, Savage Attacker<\/li>\n<li>Sorcerer 5<\/li>\n<li>Sorcerer 6, Hound of Ill Omen<\/li>\n<li>Sorcerer 7<\/li>\n<li>Sorcerer 8, ASI +2 Charisma<\/li>\n<li>Sorcerer 9<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-hexbuckler\"><span>Hexbuckler<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2560px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"qDsxqxZgqEpyKR7zYUfyuQ\" name=\"bard.jpg\" alt=\"Bard\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/im-a-baldurs-gate-3-honour-mode-sicko-and-these-are-the-4-new-subclass-builds-im-most-excited-for-in-patch-8-1.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Larian Studios)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"hexblade-1-swashbuckler-11-6\">Hexblade 1 \/ Swashbuckler 11 \ud83e\udd3a<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Key Abilities:<\/strong> Bind Hexed Weapon, Sneak Attack, Fancy Footwork, Rakish Audacity, Booming Blade<\/p>\n<p><strong>Key Items:<\/strong> Knife of the Undermountain King, Shadow Blade Ring, Potent Robe, Diadem of Arcane Synergy, Duellist&#8217;s Prerogative, Bhaalist Armour<\/p>\n<p><strong>Starting Stats:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Str: 8<\/li>\n<li>Dex: 16<\/li>\n<li>Con: 14<\/li>\n<li>Wis: 10<\/li>\n<li>Int: 8<\/li>\n<li>Cha: 17<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Swashbuckler felt like an odd one to me as a front-line fighter with no Extra Attack, but it&#8217;s got a few things really going for it. Decoupling <strong>Sneak Attack<\/strong> from having Advantage (you can just use it whenever as long as you&#8217;re in melee and not Disadvantaged) makes it a much more consistent bonus throughout the game, and going the distance with Rogue means it will do a beefy +6d6 damage every single turn in the endgame.<\/p>\n<p>Throw in that one level Hexblade dip for rizz-based damage, and we&#8217;ve got an impressive party face and skill monkey who can take full advantage of the Swashbuckler&#8217;s late game, persuasion-based <strong>Panache <\/strong>ability while potentially doing some serious damage outside the usual bounds of Baldur&#8217;s Gate 3 power gaming. With the Hexblade dip, we&#8217;ll also get access to everybody&#8217;s favorite new spell, <strong>Booming Blade,<\/strong> which will further help make up for the absence of Extra Attack on this build: Just Booming Blade all the time, with your Sneak Attack as a reaction added on.<\/p>\n<p>In the early to midgame, we&#8217;ll want to dual wield to help make up for the Swashbuckler&#8217;s lack of a second attack per round\u2014the <strong>Shadow Blade Ring<\/strong> wouldn&#8217;t be a bad choice as an offhand to the Knife of the Undermountain King, the reverse setup to our Sorcadin build. In Act 3, the <strong>Duellist&#8217;s Prerogative<\/strong> rapier&#8217;s bonus action attack will accomplish that for us while also helping nail the piratical class fantasy. The <strong>Potent Robe&#8217;<\/strong>s addition of our Charisma bonus an extra time to every Booming Blade attack could see you through the whole game, but the <strong>Bhaalist Armour<\/strong> will be better in the endgame if you don&#8217;t mind killing a little angel elephant.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Leveling guide: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Hexblade 1<\/li>\n<li>Rogue 1, Sneak Attack +1d6<\/li>\n<li>Rogue 2, Cunning Action<\/li>\n<li>Swashbuckler 3, Sneak Attack +2d6, Fancy Footwork, Rakish Audacity<\/li>\n<li>Swashbuckler 4, +2 Cha, Dirty Trick<\/li>\n<li>Swashbuckler 5, Sneak Attack +3d6, Uncanny Dodge<\/li>\n<li>Swashbuckler 6<\/li>\n<li>Swashbuckler 7, Sneak Attack +4d6<\/li>\n<li>Swashbuckler 8, Savage Attacker<\/li>\n<li>Swashbuckler 9 Sneak Attack +5d6, Panache<\/li>\n<li>Swashbuckler 10, Alert<\/li>\n<li>Swashbuckler 11, Sneak Attack +6d6, Reliable Talent<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"article-body__section\" id=\"section-bonus-round\"><span>Bonus Round<\/span><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2560px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"Aa6VttKSXrbcLx8pYZnuJD\" name=\"baldurs-gate-3-withers.jpg\" alt=\"Baldur's Gate 3 - Withers the necromancer holds up his hand while talking to the player in camp\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/im-a-baldurs-gate-3-honour-mode-sicko-and-these-are-the-4-new-subclass-builds-im-most-excited-for-in-patch-8-2.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Larian Studios)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Here are some extra builds that are either a little uncertain given the incomplete nature of Patch 8, are only slight variations on the ones above, or I didn&#8217;t think they were complex enough to warrant a full breakdown:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Hexblade 1 \/ Eldritch Knight 11<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/baldurs-gate\/baldurs-gate-3-patch-8-testers-are-whispering-that-a-previously-mediocre-subclass-is-now-an-s-tier-war-god-of-infinite-thunder-smites-but-theres-no-way-it-can-last\/\" target=\"_blank\">Reports from the stress test<\/a> indicate that <strong>Booming Blade<\/strong> can be used twice in a round with <strong>Extra Attack<\/strong>, up to three times with <strong>Improved Extra Attack. <\/strong>Couple this with an Eldritch Knight&#8217;s <strong>War Caster<\/strong> ability, and that means they can cast it and benefit from its bonus damage three times in a round, then get another regular attack as a bonus action, all without expending any resources. This has to get nerfed in some way before Patch 8&#8217;s full launch, but if not?

In tabletop, Bladesingers are supposed to be able to make an attack, then cast a cantrip instead of their Extra Attack.
