Top Feats for Your *Baldur's Gate 3* Rogue

Here are eight top-tier feats to consider for your Rogue in BG3:

Sharpshooter

Perfect for ranged Rogues, Sharpshooter is a game-changer. Ignore cover, extend your range, and boost attack damage by 10 (at the cost of a -5 penalty to hit). Transform your Rogue into a lethal sniper, consistently landing powerful, accurate shots.

Skilled

Unmatched versatility. Gain proficiency in any three skills or tools. Become a master of stealth, acrobatics, and sleight of hand, or the party's go-to locksmith, tracker, and appraiser. Adapt your Rogue to your preferred playstyle.

Athlete

Enhance your Rogue's agility. Climb and rise from prone positions effortlessly, and execute impressive running jumps with a mere 5-foot run-up. Navigate terrain, dodge traps, and overcome obstacles with speed and grace. Includes a +1 to Strength or Dexterity.

Tough

While evasion is key, taking damage is inevitable. Tough significantly boosts your hit points, dramatically increasing survivability. Combined with the Rogue's natural evasiveness, you become incredibly resilient.

Mobile

Ideal for hit-and-run tactics. Strike from range, then vanish without penalty. Also excels in ranged duels, allowing you to snipe and retreat beyond enemy reach.

Alert

Avoid the perils of surprise attacks. Alert prevents being surprised, crucial for a Rogue's survival. The initiative bonus is also a valuable asset.

Dungeon Delver

Navigate *Baldur’s Gate 3*'s treacherous environments with ease. Detect and disable traps effortlessly, and unlock chests and doors without difficulty. A significant quality-of-life improvement.

Crossbow Expert

Unleash the power of the crossbow. Use your crossbow for sneak attacks at close range, dealing increased damage at all ranges. A stylish and devastating choice.

Lucky

A universally beneficial feat. Three Luck Points allow you to gain advantage on attacks, ability checks, or saving throws, and even force enemy attack rerolls. Points refresh after a long rest.

Savage Attacker

For melee Rogues, Savage Attacker is essential. Roll damage twice, keeping the highest result. Amplifies your already potent sneak attacks, ensuring consistent high damage output.

These feats will transform your Rogue into a damage-dealing powerhouse. Experiment and find the perfect combination for your playstyle. For more survival tips and guides, explore our other resources.
