Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Suggestions & Feedback Suggestion - classes, DU, and warlock

1. First of all, I think multiclassing can go a bit too far in this gane. Just imagine a cleric of Lolth making a pact with a devil, and then right after that becoming a paladin of Tyr. And they're simultaneously a descendant of dragons and a Bhaalspawn. I know this is a game, and these are utility things to make our experience better, but what is possible right now is a bit much. What I would suggest is to have a class you chose at the game start be your primary class which you can't change, and having only it provide specific dialogue options. Withers being able to remove your pact and oath and unclericify you should only be possible in custom gamemode, if possible at all. Same goes for other companions by the way, being able to un-warlock Wyll so he gets no warlock powers but still owes his soul to Mizora is too immersive-breaking in my opinion.
2. Speaking about DU, it has really big class problems too. The entire plot is that you remember nothing about your past, yet you do remember you are a cleric of Selune, for example. Well, one could argue that specifically is fine, but DU is still evil personified, so them having a fey patron or being a non-vengeance paladin doesn't make sense either. So my suggestion here would be to create sort of a Bhaalist subclass. It would be a fixed subclass for warlock, sorcerer and possibly paladin, although vengeance works too, and a fixed deity and domain for cleric. Said subclass would have some normal spells for the appropriate classes, and some unique spells which are only used by Bane and Bhaal cultists right now. And then the description for this warlock subclass would be something along the lines of " You vaguely remember having a powerful patron, but have no idea who or what exactly that is. Despite that, your patron grants you terrific powers, and also seems eager to see what carnage you can unleash with them..." Same could work for other classes I mentioned, adding awesome correlation between story and gameplay, which is something BG3 lacks, unfortunate as it may be. Of course, these dark powers would expand with more dark decisions, while the description of subclasses would change upon uncovering more about DU's past, and if the player chooses to defy Bhaal, this subclass and all of it's spells would disappear and the player would be able to choose a normal subclass/domain/oath.
