Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Story & Character Discussion The Dark Urge - Pondering the Canonical Class

My advice is to try and play as one of the classes that don't have an Origin to them. The Companions (non Origin Characters who join the party) aren't as integral to the story as the Origins so try and pick a different class to add more variety. That leaves the Paladin, Druid, Bard, Monk, Ranger and Sorcerer. Plenty of variety and choice to make from them.
