Liking dragon people doesn't make you a furry. The proper term is scalie.
Dragonborn are among the more interesting-looking races. If you like the pretty shiny dragon people go for it.
As far as class goes, it depends on what you're going for. A combat monster? Sorcerer is good, especially dragon blooded. But think about going with a bard too. They're great for support but can also be decent in combat with 3 Warlock levels just to get Pact of the Blade so you can use whatever weapon you want, and of course Eldritch Blast (recommend the class perks that cause knockback and extra damage). Mostly though Bard gives you access to some hilarious dialogue options and Speak with Animals, which expands the available quest options. They're also good with any combo of companions, so you can pair up with a warrior, mage, and thief to have all the bases covered.
also Bae'Zel best girl <3
Dragonborn look cool during character creation but they don't emote as well as the other races during actual gameplay. Seeing as your character communicates with facial expressions 99.9% of the time, I kinda regretted my first run as a Dragonborn.
i think the race specific dialogue for them is pretty sparse also at least until later in the game
I loved doing a hippie Paladin. Nature-defender kinda guy, forced by the gods to protect nature or his oath will be broken. Forces you into funny scenarios
Do not kill minthara, the drow in the camp. Kmock her out. She will be a hilariously evil companion.
I thought you also had to be super fucking evil yourself to do it. But I think I now remember them patching it so you don't have to commit to evil for her.
Oh yeah. I remember trying the path where I try to knock her outwhen leading the army to the grove. But just leading them to the grove made me an oath breaker lmao
Doing a selunite run while persuing shadowheart as a romantic interest is pure comedy
As always in these kind of games, you'll be rewarded if you play a combination that maxes out your combat effectiveness while also maxing out your social skills. Sorcerer is the way to go for the magically inclined, Paladin for the non-magical.
Sword Bard as your main character made Honor Mode very forgiving. Rizz, magical support, crowd control, and able to do damage.
If you're deadset on picking dragonborn, bear in mind that red dragonborns get bonus relationship points with Laezel.
My favourite race picks are githyanki and lolthsworn drow though:
Lolthsworn drow get a bunch of unique dialogue options early on that can allow you to skip some combat encounters (although there are also a coupla situations where it's flipped and you've gotta talk normally peaceful NPCs down from fights).
Githyanki starting proficiencies give you a bunch more defensive options for non-martial classes. They also have a lot of unique dialogues.
College of Swords bard is fun, especially for a ranged build.
Personally, I went with a gnome Open Hand monk with the Tavern Brawler perk because Improvised Weapon and Throw are too hilarious not to abuse, especially when you barely come up to most opponents' kneecaps. To that end, kneecaps are a weakness, and I exploited them.
Edit: At any rate, I highly recommend picking a class or race that has access to Speak With Animals. Talk to ALL the cats!
You have a feathersona. I think it's time to accept it.
githyanki get a bonus action teleport for free
the lucky feature for halfings is very strong and i think stacks with the lucky feat
one of the dwarves can go invisible which is overpowered
dark urge is fun
martial classes are very strong and fun
charisma is also really strong
Heyyy I JUST started bg3 too! I made my character a githyaki bard but then changed my class to a githyaki fighter specializing in 2 handed weapons. High strength, health, and charisma. I’m having a lot of fun with it, basically a sword lesbian roleplay (it’s barely a roleplay lol I’m just being me).
Just wanted to say you can re spec! But you can’t change your race unless you make a new character. You can also adjust your characters look very easily from the beginning of the game so don’t get toooo hung up on it
My favorite character in table top and bg3 is halfling wild magic sorcerer, charlatan (or gambler) background. Can recommend if you don’t mind accidentally dying to bad rolls.
Did u give your character a massive ass
