shadowheart sucks. change my mind.

[lemon-lime]

Her damage is less than mediocre with a legendary weapon, heals are ♥♥♥♥. her buffs aren't worth much either. Hope is a way better healer...

Shadowheart is great, unless you want to play a cleric too. Then you outshine her pretty quick, and 2 clerics in the party drag. Hijacking thread for suggestions on how to respec her without changing who she is at the core. (By that i mean mostly preserving stats, i don't mind tweaking them, just high wis and acceptable dex is thematically relevant)

Following her lore/background, I cant see much beyond cleric respec for another domain or paladin. Monk may fit, as a stretch -- they have a focused religious them of sorts. Druid does not fit, and everything else drops religion out of the picture on a character that does nothing but prattle about religion.

There's a cleric-flavored rogue subclass that isn't in the game

Basically arcane trickster iirc

Edit: Divine Herald from Xanathar's Lost Notes.
Blatantly just gains the cleric spell list, so multiclassing a rogue with trickery domain would sortof make one.

I would like to see some of you melee onlys playing in the final portions of the game... Man I would totally watch it

Gonna look up on YouTube to see, pretty sure someone tried that and maybe succeeded even

There is no other strategy for you guys... You are going to have to get up close and personal...

I just can't see it being easy lol

I wanna make a game where everyone has halberds, polearm master, and sentinel.

Just swiss guard all the fights

Sabaton intensifies.

Eh, you can respec characters pretty early into the game. No reason to keep her as is if you don't like her. I respecced her and now she's ♥♥♥♥♥♥ awesome

[Seraphiel]

Unless you're dedicated to the role-play, pay Withers to re-specc her to a better class of cleric.

Then she'll go from worst party member to best party member.

What's wrong with clerics?
Clearly they are support for the most part, maybe get better at the game?

[Windows 10 is Horrible.]

make her Life Domain and proper gear

Using Steven Crowders bit, to say a female sucks, is cringe.

[Pan Darius Cassandra]

You're playing her wrong.

[MrDammit]

I respec your opinion.

I'm pretty sure Astarion is the one who sucks.
ShadowHeart's more into bludgeoning flesh, if you know what I mean.
She and Abdirik get along fine.

Thief astarian is a god in act 3.

[warmy bear]

Shadowheart has good buffs and great healing, you're just trash

[Haru]

I don't think people understand clerics.

[wendigo211]

I mostly use her for Bless with the Staff of Arcane Blessing to enable other party members to do their thing. To that end, I made her an Open Palm Monk 6/War Cleric 6. Loaded with all that +unarmed damage gear the game throws at you in Act 3, she can dish out a pretty good poke with Flurry of Blows; more damage than Harm at any rate. The level 4 to 6 cleric spells are really weak in this game. The level 3 spells are really good though.

Minthara sucks.
Shadowheart doesnt, unfortunately.

Seriously though.

Shadowheart can be built to have the best heals you can find, even better than healer Druid, and she can at the same time be almost always missed by melee attacks, besides the Sanctuary all clerics have.

I guess the problem is not knowing how to play.

I gave her heavy armor prof, a good shield and Lathander's Blood mace
She became a one-shot railgun, after which I just turned on her orbiting spirits and sent her runnig through the crowds, occasionaly throwing grenades or shooting explosives at enemies standing too close to ledges.
