Best Baldur’s Gate 3 Multiclass Monk Build

This Multiclass guide focuses on the Multiclass Monk in Baldur’s Gate 3, combined with the Rogue class, to create a powerful build.

This build has been updated for the Patch 7 version of Baldur’s Gate 3.

Everything About the Multiclass Monk

This Monk Multiclass build is focused on multiclassing, combining two classes to increase this build’s potential in BG3 combat. This build will use the Monk and the Rogue multiclass setup to gain an additional bonus action and utilize the Monk Unarmed Attacks. The multiclass Monk will use the Way of the Open Hand subclass along with the Rogue and Thief subclass. These two synergize well, creating a powerful combat machine with utility due to Rogue’s skill proficiency.

In combat, the Multiclass Monk’s gameplay revolves around high movement speed, single-target damage, and stunning enemies. You’ll frequently utilize bonus actions and have various methods to handle foes. Additionally, this build shines in crowd control, combining exceptional mobility with strong melee capabilities.

Monk Multiclassing Explained

The Multiclass the Monk in Baldur’s Gate 3, hit the add a class button in the top right on the leveling character screen. Multiclassing in Baldur’s Gate 3 allows your character to gain a level in a new class instead of advancing in their current class. To Multiclass in BG3, hit the top right plus button to add a class, so that it will bring up a new screen with the other classes in Baldur’s Gate 3.  

Multiclassing grants most of the benefits of that new class, but there are some limitations. Your multiclassing character does not receive all the proficiencies of their new class, like Fighter heavy armour. You also cannot multiclass when playing on Explorer Difficulty.  With this build, we use the Rogue class which adds Light Armor proficiency but you want to stick with cloth.

Below is a list of Multiclass Proficiencies gained by taking one level in a new class:

Class	Gained Proficiency
Barbarian	Shields, Simple Weapons, Martial Weapons
Bard	Light Armor, One skill, One instrument
Cleric	Light Armor, Medium Armor, Shields, Morningstars
Druid	Light Armor, Medium Armor, Shields
Fighter	Light Armor, Medium Armor, Shields, Simple Weapons, Martial Weapons
Monk	Simple Weapons, Shortswords
Paladin	Light Armor, Medium Armor, Shields, Simple Weapons, Martial Weapons
Ranger	Light Armor, Medium Armor, Shields, Simple Weapons, Martial Weapons, One skill
Rogue	Light Armor, One skill
Sorcerer	–
Warlock	Light armor, Simple Weapons
Wizard	–

Best Monk Multiclass

The best class for the Monk to multiclass into is the Rogue because you can get Cunning Action, Fast Hands, and Sneak Attack. This increases your bonus action effectiveness and increases overall damage with a secondary bonus action. A secondary multiclass choice for Monk is Fighter because you can gain Action Surge and a Fighting Style.

Here is the best multiclass choice for a Monk build in Baldur’s Gate 3:

Rogue	Fighter
Cunning Action	Action Surge
Fast Hands	Fighting Style
Sneak Attack	Second Wind

For this build, we recommend 8 levels into Monk and 4 levels into Rogue. This will allow you to have three feats, two bonus actions, and reach 20 Dexterity by maximum level.

We will start with 8 levels into Monk first to unlock two feats, Extra Attack, and Way of Open Hand subclass. Then you will switch to Rogue for the final 4 levels to obtain another feat and Fast Hands which gives additional bonus actions. Follow along below in the leveling progression for the Best Baldur’s Gate 3 Multiclass Monk Build.

Character Creation

Best Multiclass Monk Race

Githyanki is the Best Race Choice for a multiclass Monk Build because you gain Astral Knowledge, Enhanced Leap, and Martial Prodigy. This gives you access to movement spells, skills, and additional weapon and armor proficiencies. However, the Wood Elf is a secondary choice because their Fleet of Feet increases base movement speed by 1.5 meters per turn. Wood Elves also receive Mask of the Wild, which grants proficiency in stealth.

Here is the best race choice for a multiclass Monk build in Baldur’s Gate 3:

1. Githyanki
2. Wood Elf

Best Background

Urchin is the best Background for a Monk Multiclass Build because you gain proficiency in two dexterity base skills, Sleight of Hand and Stealth. This can help you avoid using a Rogue in your party because of your Monk versatility. Backgrounds in Baldur’s Gate 3 are a way to represent your character’s backstory and give them some starting skills and abilities.

Best Ability Score

The Best Ability Score for multiclass Monk Build is 16 Dexterity, 16 Wisdom, and 15 Constitution. Dexterity is your primary stat and increases your damage with unarmed attacks Dextrous Attacks class passive. Wisdom increases your Armour Class (AC) which helps you avoid attacks. Constitution is useful for health and overall survivability.

Below is the best ability score for a multiclass Monk in Baldur’s Gate 3:

• Strength – 8
• Dexterity – 16
• Constitution – 15
• Intelligence – 8
• Wisdom – 16
• Charisma – 10

Strength Ability Score & Monk

Strength is also vital due to the Tavern Brawler feat, which we will select at level 4. However, we use the Elixir of Hill Giant Strength, which increases our passive strength to 21. This allows you to gain a higher ability score without spending points on strength. Remember that you will need to constantly craft, buy, and consume Hill Giant (or Cloud Giant) strength elixirs, which last until a long rest.

Consider the ability score load-out geared towards optimal damage on higher difficulty and we assume you will use Hill Giant elixirs on tough encounters.

Best Skills

Acrobatics and Insight are the best skills for the multiclass Monk because they complement your build when exploring the environment.

Companions

The best companions for a Monk Multiclass build in BG3 are Lae’zel, Shadowheart, and Gale. This will give you a balanced team with a Cleric for support, Lae’zel for tanking, and a Wizard for ranged spellcasting and utility.

• Lae’zeal (Fighter): damage, crowd control, and in-your-face aggression. 
• Shadowheart (Cleric): buffs, healing, and control. 
• Gale (Wizard): Used for area base damage, crowd control, and range.

Best Multiclass Monk Build – Level Progression in Baldur’s Gate 3

Level 1

Follow our character creator to pick all correct background, race, skills, and ability scoring focusing on Dexterity, Wisdom, and Constitution. You won’t be able to select a subclass until level 3, so expect the Monk class to start slow. You want to wear clothing NOT armour due to the passive Unarmored Defense. The higher your Wisdom, the more AC you will have which can be added to via armour and accessories.

For weapons, we suggest leaving your weapon unequipped though you can use Quarterstaves, and Spears early in the game. Both Quarterstaves and Spears are Versatile, so you can equip them with two hands, and are simple weapons. Then look to access the Hollowed City at the north of the starting spot post tutorial where Dammon and others will sell good armor.  Below we will walk you through the leveling progression when using the Best Baldur’s Gate 3 Multiclass Monk Build.

Monk Features and Passives at Level 1

At Level 1, the Monk unlocks Flurry of Blows. This will be your primary damage source and can use it as a bonus action. Even right away, you can use an action for a weapon attack and Flurry of Blows for an additional attack even at level one. Additional passives granted at Level 1 as a Monk:

• Flurry of Blows: punch twice in quick succession.
• Ki: resource points to use special Monk attacks can be replenished on short rest.
• Unarmored Defense: While not wearing armour, you add your Wisdom Modifier to your Armour Class. This is why we want high Wisdom and only use clothing not armor unless it gives more Armour Class (AC).
• Dexterous Attacks: Attacks with Monk Weapons and unarmed attacks scale with your Dexterity instead of your Strength if your Dexterity is higher. This is the reason our primary offense stat is Dexterity, not Strength.
• Deft Strikes: Attacks with Monk Weapons and unarmed attacks deal 1~4 Bludgeoning damage, unless their normal damage is higher.
• Unarmed Strike: After making an attack with a Monk Weapon or while unarmed, you can make another unarmed attack as a bonus action.

This level unlocks the premise behind the build, unarmed attacks, use of clothing, and an emphasis on bonus actions. From level one, you can combine an action-based attack like an unarmed strike or weapon attack with Flurry of Blows. This will be the theme throughout the Monk build. Your Ki is a resource point system that will augment attacks later on like providing stuns or knockback, etc. The gameplay is very simple, attack with unarmed and bonus action for multiple attacks.

Multiclass Monk Gameplay & Priorities

As you make your way through the prologue of BG3, look to unarmed attacks for damage without the need to equip any weapons. Your main challenge will be mobility, though by leveling you will get increased mobility options. Additionally, your primary goal should be to equip the Haste Helm as soon as possible. Moreover, look to acquire the Elixir of Bloodlust or Potion of Invisibility. Bloodlust helps trigger an extra action on kill and Invisibility helps you stay alive if you’re in trouble.

Your overall priority with the Multiclass Monk build is the following:

• Complete Prologue
• Recruit Companions
• Unlock Withers, respec companions to proper class/ability score
• Collect the Necromancy of Thay (important in Act 3)
• Reached Hollowed City/Druid Grove
• Sell, Stock up, complete quests
• Unlock summons, Scratch, Shovel
• Progress to level 5
• Reach Underdark and Grymforge
• Check all Permanent Bonuses in Act 1 and the best Gear

Following these steps ensures a strong foundation for her especially if you plan on playing solo or on Honour Mode difficulty.

Level 2

At Level 2, the Monk unlocks a lot of class features and actions including an additional Ki point. Here’s what to expect as a Level 2 Monk:

• Unarmoured Movement: Your movement speed increases by 3m while you are not wearing armor or using a shield.
• Patient Defense: using a bonus action and a Ki Point, Attack Rolls against you have Disadvantage, and you have Advantage on Dexterity Saving Throws.
• Step of the Wind: Dash (Action): using a bonus action and a Ki point, Double your movement speed. Jump no longer requires a bonus action.
• Step of the Wind: Disengage (Action): using a bonus action and a Ki point, Retreat to safety by Disengaging. Jump no longer requires a bonus action.

If we unpack these additional class features and actions, it gives us more incentive to use clothing not armor due to the movement speed increase. With Patient Defense, you can give a disadvantage. Patient Defense is important for a variety of cloth gear choices in Acts 1 through 3 so be aware when you see this at vendors or traders.

You will also have much higher mobility with Step of the Wind Dash and Disengage. The Dash in particular is extremely useful because it can be used as a bonus action. The biggest issue you face early with the Monk build is mobility and entering combat with an action and a bonus action. Now with your Ki Points and bonus action, you can traverse huge distances and still use your action for an attack or something else.

Combat at this point remains the same, except throwing in a Patient Defensive when you need protection or a big hit against an enemy.

Level 3

At Level 3, we will select the Way of the Open Hand Monk subclass. This will unlock the following:

• Open Hand Technique: manipulate Ki’s Energy to add additional effects to Flurry of Blows.
• Deflect Missiles: Use your reaction to reduce the damage from a ranged weapon attack.
• Enhance Leap (Githyanki Race): allows spellcasters to increase a creature’s Jumping distance.

What this does is essentially morph our Flurry of Blows into three different forms. Stagger, Push, and Topple. Push is useful to knock enemies off cliffs while topple is great to knock enemies prone essentially stunning them for a turn. The flurry of Blows skills cost a bonus action, rather than an action. this will give you more flexibility and control with your unarmed attacks.

Level 4

At Level 4, you get to pick a Feat along with a Ki Point and Slow Fall. Slow Fall allows you to use a reaction to gain Resistance to Falling damage. Reactions do not consume your action or bonus and give you the freedom to jump from tall heights similar to the feather fall spell.

Tavern Brawler Feat selection allows you to make an unarmed attack, use an improvised weapon, or throw something, your Strength Modifier is added twice to the damage and Attack Rolls. Also, Tarvern Brawler lets you choose a +1 ability score in Strength or Constitution.  With our +1 selection, we will reach 14 Constitution giving us an even number and more health. This will help us do more damage with Strength. At this point, Elixirs of Hill Giant Strength becomes very important to add a ton of damage.

Now Strength becomes a very powerful ability score giving a 2x bonus to damage and attack rolls. You want to look for gear sets like Mighty Cloth or potions like Elixir of Hill Giant Strength. The benefit of Hill Giant’s strength is it lasts until a long rest. Therefore, look to consume this potion as a buff for hard fights after your long rest. This will radically increase your damage, and it only gets better next-level Extra Attack with the Best Baldur’s Gate 3 Multiclass Monk Build.

Level 5

As a Level 5 Monk, our power dramatically increases via a new class feature along with some extra utility.

• Extra Attack: can make an additional free attack after making an unarmed or weapon attack.
• Stunning Strike (Melee): use action to possibly stun the target.
• Stunning Strike (Unarmed): use action to possibly stun the target.
• Misty Step (Githyanki Race): teleport to an unoccupied space you can see once per long rest.

Gameplay at Level 5 of Multiclass Monk

You can now use an action and a bonus action to stun a target. This gives the Monk tons of single-target crowd control, and if you miss attempt number one you can try again. You get two attacks with one action thanks to Extra Attack and can still use a bonus action for another attack. This opens up a lot of offensive possibilities. The easiest thing to do is target the hardest-hitting enemy and simply lock them down with constant stuns, knockback, and prone status effects.

If you selected the Githyanki race, you unlock Misty Step once per long rest. This gives you a massive boost in mobility and the Misty Step spell consumes a bonus action. Some gear sets unlock Misty Step as well which we recommend because the weakest part of what limits the Monk’s damage is mobility and incoming crowd control.

At this level, you should be much more powerful especially if you are sticking to cloth and not armour. We suggest staying with the Monk for the next few levels rather than switching to the Rogue Thief at this point. Both options are viable, but you will unlock more class and subclass features along with another feat. The Rogue and Thief bonus action combination is a powerful one, but the Monk still has power left in the class before swapping. Let’s continue our progression with the Best Baldur’s Gate 3 Multiclass Monk Build.

Level 6

At Level 6, expect even more to unlock for your class and subclass. Here’s the breakdown of the Monk at level 6 in Baldur’s Gate 3:

• Improved Unarmoured Movement: Your movement speed increases by 4.5m while you are not wearing armor or using a shield.
• Ki Empowered Strikes: Your unarmed attacks count as magical for the purpose of overcoming enemies’ Resistance and Immunity to non-magical damage.
• Manifestation of Body: Your unarmed attacks deal an additional 3-6 Necrotic damage.
• Manifestation of Mind: Your unarmed attacks deal an additional 3-6 Psychic damage.
• Manifestation of Soul: Your unarmed attacks deal an additional 3-6 Radiant damage.
• Wholeness of Body: heal for 18 Regain half your Ki Points and have an extra bonus action for 3 turns.

To summarize the additions, you get additional benefits from not using armor for movement speed purposes. You get a bit more damage on unarmed attacks with Manifestation of Body. This is a passive togglable feature that allows you to swap elements. This passive essentially adds free damage at no resource cost. Moreover, you can swap the type of damage when facing different opponents with weaknesses or resistances.

The Wholeness of Body action gives you an extra bonus action for 3 turns. It does cost an action to use, but heals, gives Ki Points, and more offensive power for a few turns. You can “stack” this additional bonus action with the Rogue Thief bonus action via Fast Hands. This is one of the reasons we will Multiclass the Monk with the potential for 2 attacks with one action via Extra Attack and 3 attacks with bonus actions. Add on top of that elemental damage and Tavern Brawler, it’s a force to be reckoned with.

Ending Act 1 as a Multiclass Monk

When reaching Level 6, you should be close to the completing Act 1 content. Be sure to visit vendors and buy up needed camp and alchemy supplies. Additionally, make sure to look over what the best Act 1 items are. Furthermore, make sure to grab all the permanent bonuses you can find in Act 1. Moreover, the Grymforge has powerful armor and weapons (Adamantine) which can be used well into Act 3. Consider taking the time to collect the crafting items before moving on to Act 2. The game will alert you when this is about to happen, but once you move onto the Shadow-Cursed Lands you can’t go back.

Finally, look to acquire the Elixir of Hill Giant Strength and Potion of Speed. You can combine these two for huge damage increases and your Multiclass Monk will feel very powerful immediately.

Level 7

As a Level 7 Monk, you unlock more Ki points and some defensive class features. Evasion is when a spell or effect deals half damage on a successful Dexterity Saving Throw, it feels no damage if you succeed, and only half damage if you fail. Stillness of Mind If you are Charmed or Frightened, you automatically cast Stillness of Mind to remove the condition. The gameplay remains the same at this level, just with more defensive capabilities.

The primary reason to stay within the Monk class for the next level feat. Once we take the feat to increase our ability score, we will swap to Rogue and progress that class to unlock Fast Hands. Moving on with our Best Baldur’s Gate 3 Multiclass Monk Build.

Level 8

At level 8, you unlock a feat. The simple and effective choice here is to increase your Dexterity. With Tavern Brawler, both Dexterity and Strength become important for adding damage. Wisdom, if you remember adds to AC helping us avoid attacks. For simplistic sake, increasing your Dexterity will aid in consistent damage along with starting earlier in combat via higher initiative. The Alert feat also helps with initiative, but not damage, and this will get our Monk in combat early, hitting harder, and most consistently.

Level 9

At level 9, we suggest switching to the Rouge class. To do this, simply click the + sign with two access for multiclass. Select your class then a popup will appear on what you can select. The reason we want to use the Rouge is mainly for the Thief subclass and an additional feat with a four-level investment. Below is what you unlock at level 1:

• Skills: Stealth and Sleight of Hand.
• Sneak Attack (Ranged & Melee): Deal an additional to an enemy you have Advantage against. Attack/Save: Ranged Attack Recharge: Once per turn. In order to gain Advantage, you need to be hiding or that enemy to be engaged with another in 1.5 meters.

Sneak Attack is a core class feature of Rouges in Baldur’s Gate 3 however, it doesn’t do much for this particular build since it’s not focused on stealth. Essentially you can add damage when attacking from stealth or having Advantage on an enemy target. Usually, you set this up via Guiding Bolt from a Cleric, a melee aggressor, or using bonus action for stealth. For this build, simply make sure you have Sneak Attack “ask” checked which you can add damage and be aware of the Advantage component.

Level 10

The second level in Thief gives you three different Cunning Actions:

• Cunning Action Hide: Hide from enemies by succeeding Stealth checks. Stick to the dark and avoid enemy sightlines. Attacking or casting a spell will reveal your location.
• Cunning Action Dash: Cover more distance this turn: double your Movement Speed.
• Cunning Action Disengage: Retreat safely: moving won’t provoke Opportunity Attacks.

The benefit of Cunning Action is having Hide as a bonus action rather than an Action. This helps keep your action freed up and if you want to use hide more frequently.

Level 11

With three levels into Rogue, we unlock the Thief Subclass giving us Fast Hand an extra bonus action.  Now, each turn if you attack with your action, you should get two attacks, two bonus actions for four in total! The main way to increase your power beyond this point is through gear. Mainly gloves, and chest cloth pieces. Look for anything with “unarmed” these are designed for Monks in mind. Below we have two various gear charts on suggestions and where to get them. One more level to go with our Best Baldur’s Gate 3 Multiclass Monk Build!

Level 12

Congratulations on reaching the maximum level with the Best Baldur’s Gate 3 Multiclass Monk Build! If you follow this guide, you can unlock another feat. Sticking to the theme of easy, simple, and effective, take +2 to Dexterity. You should now be highly mobile, have lots of damage, crowd control, and decent survivability. All without needing fancy swords like the Paladin! Make sure to check below for our gear recommendations and thank you for reading the leveling progression section for the Best Baldur’s Gate 3 Multiclass Monk Build.
