I haven't played at all yet since I've been waiting for the full release.

I'm thinking of rolling up the tempest cleric pirate I used to play in an IRL campaign. I remember using some shenanigans with taking Magic Initiate for Booming Blade, delivered with a whip, which felt fun and not too OP. Edit: Guess I'm not doing that since there's no Booming Blade in BG3 yet :(

Any fun builds you've already tried in the Early Access?

I'm not after extreme optimization either. I simply need to have enough of bases covered to not risk sudden death and a lot of content blocked because of "CHA test, failed" and such.

I never treat cRPG characters like I treat my ttRPG ones - the latter are meant to become protagonists of interesting stories. The former are keys to unlock as much of in-game possibilities as possible and assure the longevity of the gameplay until the end of the game.
