Summary

• Hiding in shadows and avoiding line of sight can give you the element of surprise in combat.
• Choose a class that favors stealth and has high Dexterity for better chances of sneaking around.
• Ranged attacks and spells can be useful for attacking enemies from a distance while remaining hidden.

Killing enemies is a lot easier when they don't see you coming. Of all the ways you can start a fight in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Baldur's Gate 3, one of them is to simply hide somewhere no one can see you and attack them instead of triggering any sort of conversation with the NPC beforehand — and that's v✤ery effective, as surprised opponents lose their first turn in combat.

Though any character can sneak arou💧nd and ambush their enemies, some characters will have an easier time than others — it's only a matter of how you build your♛ characters and what abilities they have. So, how do you create the perfect ghost character?

A good thing about this game is that you can see enemies' line of sight. Every time you hide, red marks will appear, showing tඣhe direction each NPC is looking at. By avoiding these red areas, anyone, even a heavy-armored Fighter with negative Dexterity, can successfully sneak around and getꦡ enemies by surprise.

Still, you don't necessarily get caught just because you've entered the line of sight. If the light — or the lack of it — is in your favor, there's still a chance enemies won't see you, so, if possible, always walk aroꦡund in areas that are not directly in the open or stay away from light sources, such as torches that may be on the walls.

When you are in the line of sight, but the place is dark — which you'll be able to know through the obscured or lightly-obscured conditions — you'll roll a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Stealth Ability Check, and, if you succeed, you won't be noticed.

If you rem꧒ain in the line of sight, you'll repeat this test until you leave it or fail.

We recommend using Turn-Base Mode when you know you have to walk through someone's line of sight, controlling when these Ability Check🍃s will trigger.

We've mentioned every class can sneak around flawlessly as long as you're not in someone's line of sight, but some classes will still perform better than others. It probably goes without saying, but Rogues are the prime example of the best class for this sort of endeavor, but they'r🍸e not the only option.

Any class that relies on Dexterity will have an easier time sneaking around, as Stealth relies on Dexterityಞ. Ideally, you should als🌼o get skill proficiency in Stealth, so your proficiency bonus will also be applied when rolling these checks. Rogues shine here because you can also get expertise in Stealth, meaning your proficiency bonus will be doubled.

Rangers, especially Gloom Stalkers, are another excellent option for sneaking around, thanks to disguise, teleport, and invisibility. Bards are interesting, too, since they can get expertise in Stealth, too, should you choose. Even spellcasterཧs can have their fun sneaking around since most of them don't wear armor. They're not the best at i☂t, but they're not the worst, either.

The classes and builds that'll have a hard time sneaking around are characters with low Dexterity an✅d medium or heavy armor, as these give you disadvantages on St☂ealth rolls.

You can circumvent൩ those things w🍸ith feats or spells, but they won't do a good job by default.

3 Choose A Race🎶 With A𒊎 Stealth-Focused Bonus

The r♋aces you pick will also help you out when sneaking around, as some of their bonuses are directly aimed toward the Stealth skill or their bonus can be used for th🙈ese occasions.

Our first good example is the Wood Elf, with their extra movement and free Stealth skill proficiency, allowing you to🍬 get other proficiencies with your class and still be good at stealth. Still, there is a better bonus than free skill proficiency.

Lightfoot Halflings and Deep Gnomes get an advantage to all their Stealth Ability Checks, among other things. That, combined with proficiency from your class, will make it extremely hard for you to fail these checks. Deep Gnomes are a better choice here due to their Superior Darkvisi🌃on, being effective fro♉m afar (we'll get to that).

Tieflings and Drows are decent options for being able to cast Darkness, but spellcasting can make enemies aware of you if they are already hostile. That said, our final main recommendation is the Duergar. They can cast Invisibility at will — or once per battle if you're usi🌺ng it in combat. Given their other bonuses favoring frontline characters, they are a fantastic option for an armored Fighter-like character who can still sneak around through their invisibility.

2 𝔍 Favor Ranged Attacks

Even though your chances will be quite high with the tips above, walking around someone's line of sight can still fail — especially if there are no shadows for you to hide in.ꦍ So, instea♏d of trying to get to your target, you can always shoot at them.

Long-range weapons🍸 are perfect options for sneaky characters. Their attacks will also rely on your Dexterity, allowing you to position yourself better on the battlefield without risking being too close to multiple opponents with a squishier character, for instance.

Spellcasters can also take advantage of being hidden and throw a spell attack like a Fire Bolt with advantage and taking enemies by surprise without having to get up close to them. Even Strength-based characters can still benefit𝓡 from range by throwing something like a javelin toward the opponent. Still, ranged characters will have a better time since they'll have wea🐲pons or features that function well in these cases.

1 ♏ Use Spells A𝓰nd Equipment That Can Help Your Stealth

When talking about the Duergar, we mentioned how much of a game-changer invisibility spells can be when sneaking around, for obvious reasons. This spell, along with its better counterpart, , is a fantastic choice to go unnoticed, but they're not the only🍸 option.

A melee stealthy character can also benefit from teleportation, avoiding the line of sight and thus any Stealth Ability Check. Jumping also doesn't trigger enemies, as long as you don't pass in front of them, meaning a Githyanki could be surprisingly stealthy with their enhanced jump and .

Still, you can get some of these abilities from your class or equipment, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:such as rings ✃or necklaces. Some weapons also help with the damage, such as lowering the number for a critical hit, which, combined with an advantage attack, increases your chance of landing a critical strike,൩ for example.
