Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Help Tips & Tricks Counterspell: What am I not understanding?

Its a Bug i Beleave..
As long as yu Have spell slots to Use it, it should show the option for yu..
Btw the Counter is Broken in another way too..
Many Times in my Last Run i Counter the Spell from the Dude but still get to deal with the spell that i was supposed to counter..
Sometimes even if yu use it not counter proper.

BTW yu say yu Play as Lock.. i love it too..
But did yu Mix with another Thing or yu Play as Full Lock only ?!
yu will Miss a Bunch of spell slots if yu dont Mix with Sorcerer..
to cast a Bunch of spells evry turn thats the way..
Or go with a Hexablade or Palock..
with this 2 builds yu will never need Counter..

I Only Play as Lock mix nowadays..
Hexablade most of the Times (Fighter/Lock)

Best Mix is always
7 Fighter/ 5 lock or 7 lock/5 fighter but yu will Miss +2 stats going 7 lock.
8 Sorcerer/ 2 Lock/ 2 fighter (For action Surge.)
7 Pala/ 5 Lock.

These are the Strongest Lock Builds i ever Did in this Game.
Bard/Lock Works well too.. but i never Used it..
Since its a Charisma Based Char i Bet it Mix well with Lock or Sorcerer or even Both.
i Tried Once 3 thief/3 Bard school of Sword/ 6 Sorcerer on Astarion..
And worked really Nice.
