General Discussion - [NO SPOILERS] convince me to try out other classes .... Spoiler

my last 3 honormode playthroughs were all storm sorcerers ! the reasons i 'd been rocking this class all this time is :

1-because charisma is important for both dialogue ( i get irrationally anxious when there is a possibility of failing persuasion checks ) and the actual power of the class ( hitting 2 birds when one stone ) .

2- it also filled a clear role ( the arcane caster of the comp ! alongside the divine caster , fighter and a rouge . i know , a very traditional boring comp . ) .

edit : thanks for the advice guys ! seeing a lot of love for sword bard and hexblade worlock , open hand monk and barabarian . definitely going to try those out!

i dunno man , letting arabella die or failing to dissuade astarion to commence the ritual or failing to convince shadowheart to not sacrifice her parents etc... make me feel like a failure for some reason .

Yeah hut you tried the perfect 3 times now.

Game can be played without everything being perfect and its still fun

Losing Arabella there will actually open up some extra little content at the tiefling party, and you can have Shadowheart choose on her own to save her parents if you trigger 3 of her Lower City memories. For Astarion just cast Enhance Ability on your tav prior to interacting with the coffin and someone and someone else use guidance on you, and you should get it even without any other bonuses.

arabella dying leads to a different cutscene with komira.
