But yeah, you can change classes with respecs, just be prepared for the game to still pretend they are their "canon" class in all dialogue about them
No one fully knows if you can respec Shadowheart and Wyll's Subclass since they are quite tied to their origin story. Gale is a wizard and his subclasses are specialising on different schools of magic.
You could have Shadowheart being a support cleric, trickery has tricks for distraction and stealth.
Gale could be a many roles of big damage or support.
Wyll being fiend patron will be damage heavy, he does get temporary hp from killing an enemy.
You yourself could either be a tank or a healer.
The companion character classes at the first meeting are based on the characters' story up to that point. That history will remain, but what happens from that moment forward is up to the player. The game will continue to make references to the characters' historic occupations prior to meeting the player. That's the limit of the classes' influence on the companions' stories so far.
Will that change in release? Dunno.
I'm also asking assuming you can only recruit 3 companions. Do we know if that's the case? or can you recruit all possible companions, but only take 3 with you as you go?
Worth to add if you do things some won't like. I won't spoil but it's drastic stuff they might leave or turn against you.
The story revolves around her worship of and feelings about a goddess (whether real or implanted), not her power level.
Wyll is a tiny bit different in that his patron is inextricably tied to his powers, literally granted to him by Mizora...that said, it's also possible to massage the deal he made with her so that she granted him something else besides his Warlock levels. Not everyone who makes a deal with a Fiend is a Warlock, some are just tragic suckers. I mean, look at Mayrina. She made a pact with Auntie Ethel, is she a Pact of the Archfey Warlock? No. She's just a stupid peasant girl in over her head.
Gale's situation can be explained by whatever happened between him and Mystra wiping his knowledge of magic, apparently he was a much more powerful Wizard prior to the start of BG3, and who knows what direction he'll choose now that he has a clean slate?
Astarion can pretty much be whatever you want him to be.
Lae'zel would be limited by her culture's dictates, and I don't know enough about Gith lore to say specifically whether they had any class restrictions based on their cultural enforcement, but other than that...
As for the other 'companions' the only danger is diverging from thevestablished canon, if that means anything to you...
I thought Karlach was gonna be a ranger but instead barbarian. Still, Wyll and Shadowheart will probably not be able to change their subclass due to being tied heavily to their backstory.
If you like you can multiclass in full release and I plan on doing that with my origin characters. With the ones you named specifically:
Side note, as she regains her memories in Early Access she seems less good and more appearing to be good as things progress and she talks more about Shar.
Also someone didn't ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ listen to Larian WHO OUT RIGHT SAID YOU SHOULDN'T PLAY DARK URGE FOR YOUR FIRST PLAYTHRU XD
Hey Dingus....In DnD A Cleric is basically just a Holy ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Warlock xD so It actually DOES Matter that shes a Cleric....as later in the game if you switch her from a Sharan to a Selunite IT LITERALLY SAYS THE SOURCE OF HER POWER CHANGED xD So it does have to do with where she gets a powers just like in table top.....if you don't follow your Gods rules then you ether lose powers or have something happen to you......Every time we do something that isn't in lie with something Shar would want Shadowheart to do...her hand hurts....that is her as a Cleric getting in trouble with her God
Oh, and if you don't have a party member that is ace at Lock Picking, things are going to be somewhat more difficult for you the further you get into the game. :/
