how do you build Jaheira?

[SuperbDave]

She starts with dual wield scimitars, and I kinda wanna follow that route, but I just don't find anything on druid's kit that help with dual wield.

did a spore druid, and was hoping I can cast, then use off hand attack with the 1-6 damage bonus, but ended up using "spreading spore" all the time to occupy the bonus action.

you build her like u would a druid with dual wielding
focus mainly on the shapeshifting and whatnot
but use your swords when u have no choice but to engage in CQC

Jaheira is a druid and fighter multi-class character in old Baldur's Gate games. It stands to reason that she won't be feature complete as a pure druid here either. If you want to lean into the scimitar combat, give her some fighter levels.

I found her best focus was her spells. She not half bad with the scimitars, too. Could see spore being pretty great on her.

As for things that help with dual wielding, it's basically all free now and anyone can do practically w/e. As long as she can use those scimitars she's good with them, just up her dexterity and give her some specific gear for more attack bonus.

Respec'd her stats and did Druid 3 rest fighter with dual wield feat and she became strongest person in my party, give gloves of giant strength and she does 30-40 damage in just basics. then has faerie fire, heat metal, curse wounds, and whatever else as druid spells

[Targaryen22]

I've built her to be a spore necro druid lol my character is a shifter druid/dual wield druid so jaheira is my test of the other subclass lol

[Poop King]

Imagine actually leaving those useless swords on Jaheira, are y'all just terribad at the game?

Replace them for a +1 dc staff and the shield from kethric. Go blast stuff with spells. Use shillegah and arcane infusion ring to hit things if needed.

[rabidhanar]

Respec'd her into a bard. Now she plays the bongos.

She really is a weird character because of Halsin being the same thing more or less. They really should have had her join the party at whatever the party level is split into fighter/druid as appropriate and then let us respec her if we wanted, Honestly Halsin should have been the same way, and the Drow elf plus the guy you get in Act 3 (which was a weird time to give another companion).

dead in a ditch somewhere in act 2 is how i built her

He's a pretty huge deal, that guy. It's a little disappointing you don't get him earlier, but his intro makes sense.

If act 3 was bigger and more fleshed out, then it'd feel more like you have Minsc on your team for at least full 3rd of the game. Would be nice if BG itself was gigantic, (the upper city/map is kind of a dirty lie,) because if act 3 was like it's own whole thing and you have Minsc for all of it? Yeah, that'd be great.

Well Halsin gets Healing Word, Misty Step, and Call Lightning always prepared so I like him as a Land Druid.

Moon Druid for Jaheira since all the good Wild Shape armor / helm can be purchased shortly after getting her.

With a sword to the head.

Multiclass Thief-4/Druod-8.

Take Dual Wielder feat so you can wield a Staff in one hand (Shileleighed if you want, but mostly for magic abilities of the staff itself, such as Raindancer or Arcane Brilliance), and a Flame Blade in your offhand.

Cast Call Lightning, use your main action to call down lightning strikes and both your bonus actions (you get at least two because of Thief) to attack twice.

If you're Hasted you get 2x Call Ligjtnings and 2x offhand attacks.

Alternatively, since most of Flame Blade's damage comes from the spell, you could wield another light weapon in your main hand and get Savage Attacker instead, or if you really want to lean imto the melee bit you could go sword n' board Druid and wield a shield. Maybe multiclass with a class that gets Extra Attack.

Drud/figher makes since considering her backstory although one thing I do not need is another fighter. I put most into her druid for support so I could dump the annoying prissy-voiced Shadowheart.

[Rumar]

druid 6 levels and fighter 6 levels. I wanted the canon Jaheira. She actually looks good with the a raditant damage helmet on which is rare.
