Baldur's Gate 3 classes and subclasses: how to pick your playstyle

Halsin summons his bear form.

When you're starting out in Baldur's Gate 3, picking your class is one of your earliest and most important choices. Pulling directly from Dungeons and Dragons, your class determines your the bulk of your playstyle and ability options. Maybe you want to dabble in the Druid's shapeshifting and nature magic. Or maybe you want to play the frothing berserker, wading bare-chested into battle as a Barbarian.

Luckily, it's an important decision with pretty low stakes. While your class is a fundamental part of your character, it's not one you're stuck with. You can respec in Baldur's Gate 3 for only a fistful of gold, once you've done an early sidequest.
