Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Show Full Class Progression at Levelup

When choosing a class to level up, it would help to show the full class progression; all feats, skill proficiencies, spell slots, etc. gained at each level.

See the 5e SRD for example:
https://www.5esrd.com/database/class/wizard/

That should not be a problem since there is level cap 12.

I have seen button “details” during the character creation. I would assume that it will contain information regarding class progression.

I really hope so

Solasta did it well.
Pathfinder WotR did a good job too but it can be confusing in this complex system, especially when multi classing.

BG3 EA was a complete horror in this regard.
You could not create a good char without looking at the wiki what classes learn later, what subclasses exist (if you select them later) and what each subclass learns later.

I just pick up my PHB if in doubt. But yeah, for newer players it might be a good idea. On the other hand it could be a bit intimidating for some, so I understand why Larian might not want to. An encyclopedia, or menu accesible from the main menu, might not be a bad shout though, post release.

Quite honestly ...
The closer we get to release, the more im learing about the game, the more i cant shake the feeling that this isnt good advice at all. :-/

Since Larian made changes to some classes the PHB won't align perfectly with what we'll get in the game, and that can lead to situations where you've carefully planned a build that doesn't translate well to the game, or cases where the game actually makes a specific class better or more interesting than it normally would be, but you wouldn't even consider if following what you know from the PHB.


I make the same assumption, and I think it should be available both in character creation and when leveling up.

Screenshot from CC to put the details button in context:

I made it as a joke mate . Though I do literally have half my d&D 5E books by my bedside, so its a viable option. Though as KLSLS said, its not necessarily a valid strategy down the line, if they change things around at higher lvls.
