Is a Solo Playthrough possible?
Any tried so far? ^^ Or do you need at least some buffer and some help for special situations? Iam close to finish my first round and thinking about the next challgenge... Tactician or solo run.

But I just fought in the Temple of B**** (no spoiler^^) and that fight would be really hard with just one char :D!

Did anyone finish the game solo? There seems to be no achievement for that.

You could technically just not take aboard any of the companions, find withers and use hirelings to fill out the team.

Yah it is, I believe there's one on YouTube of a cleric doing so.

Not sure if all classes are viable.

You might be able to get far abusing stealth like crazy as a rogue, I just think some fights are too tanky/have too many enemies for 1 person.

They seem to have made stealth attacks less effective which makes solo play more difficult. Have not get to the endgame yet so not sure.

yes ive seen videos of a cleric soloing tough fights

This is going to be a tough challenge.

Whichever class goes for it has to have enough health to tank the larger hits. Without thinking too far into it my first instinct would to go slow and tanky.

I am sure a Paladin could do it if specced properly.

I'm lowering the difficulty to normal tomorrow and trying.

Yeah, some multiclassing with an Paladin / Fighter / Barbarian combo or something was in my mind...
Maybe a Assassine/Gloomstalker, but might not work so well in tough fights that you cant start yourself. But with re-stealth items and so on, might be possible?!

And thanks, Ill search for this cleric videos^^

There is this mod https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/789 you could try.

You can try it without any ♥♥♥♥♥♥ mod. So far I'm about to hit act 2, you may need to use a scroll or two for certain puzzle, but so far barb is working wonders.

With how much money you aren't spending on others, you can really go high with your provisions, specially poisons/utility/scrolls.

Should be possible, but you will have to know which encounters to take and which not beforehand and dodge/set up fights accordingly. It would require tons of metagaming.

Yes I have completed a full tactician run with paladin solo.

the only enemies with See Invisibility in the game are some Absolute cultist at the last battle. Maybe some Bane justiciars, but don't quote me on that one. So Gloomstalker is still pretty viable.
