Low % of attack chance

[Xanada]

Can somebody explain me, how Laz'ael with all her knowledge about fighting and skills can have 45% of hit chance probably all the time. Without passive of higher damage with Great weapons it will be 55-60% but anyway, it is 10th lvl, where she should be 90-95% like all other melee heroes. Hate this random system

Lae'zel missed 10 x 40% chances in row v Ketheric. My main missed 3 x 70% Eldrich Blast in a row against him. Every enemy hit though, if I didn't use shield, or ward or something similar.

Karmic dice, turn it off.

The extra bonus attack from Great Weapon Master is useful, but the "all-in" passive probably should not be used most of the time. It's a poor tradeoff, in my experience.

It’s a GREAT trade off if you know what you’re doing. Since it’s toggle-able.

if you build right even with it on you should always have ATLEAST 70% hit chance, with other bonusses by great weapon master usually sits at 88% hit chance.

i re-trained Laz'ael into a more defensive melee type sword & board tank and she still has decent to-hit chance, i took away her great weapon perk/trait and gave her defence perk/trait and shes doing just fine (on tactician aswell)

[HEY]

Great weapon master is not the problem, its people not knowing how to build a char well.

50% or higher is still pretty good for this game, that's a 1 in 2 chance of hitting. high odds is like 80% +, and to get that you have to be mindful on stacking the correct stats, feats and buffs.

I know this, but anyway, not to 45% I think as other melee has 90-95, like Astarion, for example with Duals - in most part of cases he always has 90-95% aim

-5 is pretty huge if you don't have other bonuses.

no it's not it's nothing you can have bless, mutiple types, advantages, magice weapon bonus, debuffs like slow, daze... acid.... weapon buffs like oils all sorts stuff. Astarion even gets a happy bonus that adds to acc.

GWm is totally broken just cos how easy it is to stack accuracy in bg 3. You even have a weapon that gives you acc on enemies that don't have full hp and it stacks with everything else. lol as halfling you can literally never miss in this game and that's at the start of act 1 and the game just gives you more and more stuff to so it gets even easier later on.

The whole point of the combat is to get bonuses lol that's why all the skills and items are there...

Lae'zel is a fighter. She gets more ASI or feats than almost every other class, with only rogues getting the same amount.

How on earth does she only have 17 strength at level 10? She should be at 20 strength, easy, by level 6, and if you use the hag's hair on her then she can be at 20 strength by level 4.

Great Weapon Master will truly mess with her accuracy with such low strength since it's a +3 instead of a +5.

Great Weapon Master will completely offset the attribute bonus altogether, leaving the +4 proficiency + whatever spells you use to buff yourself. Otherwise you are going to be at a penalty.

With 17 strength that is +3, and with Great Weapon Master that is -5, and the proficiency bonus is +4. 3+4-5=2.

Enemies will have higher AC in Act 3, it's not uncommon to see enemies with 17+ AC. Meaning that Laezel will regularly be in the 25% chance hit her enemies since she'd need to roll a 15 just to hit them.

who on earth would not use the hair on their main ?:)

Me.

It was a challenge run to limit all my buffs to just ASI. No spells, no equipment that buffs stats.

my jack of all trades is stronger

[dolby]

bards can even be used as camp buffers you make a hirelings and just use them to prebuff after every short rest... same as Transmutation wizards and their Transmuter's Stones..

[iamcorn]

GWM is better on Karlach anyway, reckless attack helps offset it's detriment.

But yeah sounds like OP's problem is they didn't invest in Strength at the ASI levels at all and am guessing they went full on with the feats.

Nah, -5 to hit is definitely part of the problem. The difference between 17 and 20 str is only +2. Like was said above, adding the missing 35% to hit to the stated 45% gives a much more reasonable 80%. And that's without any crazy build issues, just missing the ASIs. You can add in Bless and other buffs, if those aren't included in the OP, to get even higher
