Baldur’s Gate 3 players have shared what makes the Paladin class the most popular in the game, and it’s not just their charisma.
Baldur’s Gate 3 was a smash hit for Larian Studios, with critics and players praising the RPG for its length, complex characters, and gripping story.
The game also offers great replayability, not only through the different story paths and dialogue options that players can choose from, but also through its expansive class system.
Yet despite the sheer number of classes and builds players can experiment with, one has emerged as a clear favorite among fans of the game.
Paladin, the king class of Baldur’s Gate 3: Players tell us why
Never tried Paladin, why do so many choose it? byu/thefirstfairy inBaldursGate3
A post on r/BaldursGate3 from a new player asked the community: “Why do so many choose” Paladin? The post was accompanied by a screenshot of players’ class choices, showing the Paladin at the top of the list.
According to statistics, around 220,000 players have chosen Paladin for their adventure in BG3. So what makes this class so popular?
Several reasons were given in the comments. Among them, the great survival of the class, and their ability to “be a good face for the group” .
However, there was one reason that dominated the discussion: the skill, Holy Strike.
In fact, a post that simply said Holy Strike in all caps was the most upvoted answer in the thread.
“The sweet crackling sound of Holy Strikes is reason enough to play Paladin,” said one player.
Most commenters seemed to agree that skill was one of the biggest draws of the class.
