The game has a challenge which might fit your request.
Jack of all trades aka 1 level in every class. You even get an achievement for that.
I'd love to do it though.
I don't see why this would be bad, especially if you go swords bard. Also, if you go Eldritch Knight, then bard would help your spellslot progression. I really don't think this one is that bad or cursed, at least on paper. Worst you'd have to put up with is having to split your main stats between Charisma and Strength, but generally a fighter will be doing that anyway. Dump int and you can have both high. So yeah, seems pretty solid to me.
How to redeem it? Well... archery fighter I guess lol
It is not bad. It is actually pretty strong.
ACTUALLY tho, this could work well, depending on how you built it. Rangers can absolutely be effective in melee, focusing str instead of dex. Ranger and Eldritch Knight helps eachothers spellcasting. You could pick the ranger style for knight (I forget what it is called), for heavy armor if you start ranger, though it's not needed since you will be going fighter anyway.
Just do a str ranger build, and you have it seasoned with fighter and all the cool stuff that comes with. I think this could be decent, the more I think about it.
Hell if you REALLY wanted to, you could go beastmaster and go right into melee with your pet. Both of you gang up on the enemy and tear some ♥♥♥♥ up. All the extra attacks fighters get, plus your wolf/bear/whatever. yeah, this could be pretty damned good.
Indeed. You are also getting into "anything can be good" territory lol which is true, anything can be good in the right hands.
Oh I think there are absolutely some things that just don't mesh well. For example, wizard/barbarian. Like just why. These classes features clash in so many ways, there's just no making them work.
Same with Druid. Not tat there's no multiclasses that can work decently with druid, but a druid almost always wants to stay a druid. Now, in BG3, it's not as bad as tabletop since the wildshaping is quite a bit different, so it may not be as bad for druids to multiclass here. That said, there's definitely more effective ones out there.
Wizard multiclassed with Ranger also wouldn't be great either. You're not really gaining anything, other than things like aid, which...eh. Then there's the fact that those spells (if it follows the tabletop rules), would use a different spellcasting ability (I'm not sure how BG3 handles this tbh). If that is the case in BG3 as it is in Tabletop, then that would just suck; not to mention, the spells you get as ranger just don't really do you any good as a wizard.
Like you said though, just about anything *can* work, in the right hands, and with the right team set up
You could take this two ways. Become a dex based fighter, take the archery fighting style, and be a fighter who does a lot of sneak attack damage. Take thief as your rogue subclass and get two bonus actions. Now you are a rogue who gets to attack more, has action surge, and can use heavy armor. You still get your sneak skills, and since you're doing a dex based fighter instead of a str based one, you won't suffer a low stealth skill.
Now, is this better than just going pure rogue or pure fighter? Probably not, since as a rogue you'd have a ♥♥♥♥ ton more sneak attack damage, and a rogue doesn't really *need* heavy armor. Dipping fighter for action surge could be nice, but a 4 level commitment? Definitely not the best.
Is it as cursed as some possible combos? Probably not, since at least you can build the fighter in such a way that you don't really have to split your stats at least.
Hmm... how would you actually play/build that? You can wear any armour and use any weapons. You're limited to 1 attack per round. Few special abilities that do much and only level 1 spells.
I guess you might have to lean heavily into using consumables/scrolls/potions/etc.
No feats, not ASI.... oof.
An interesting challenge.
Oh, and build order... which classes first/last?
You get 0 feats
0 high level spells
As your skills would be spread out , many of the classes even at lvl 1 would be pointless due to lack of abilities
Doesn’t get worse than that and if you manage to pull it off you get achievement .
yeah its why this thread is silly because they are asking for something cursed but it has to be good, but then its not cursed.
so the simple answer is barbarian wizard split 1 to 1 in each level which is probably the worst progression you can do with as little overlap as possible although there is some.
the fact that swords bard get crazy good push attack at melee and ranged can allow you to completely instakill enemies or that you could borderline play the entire game without fighting within the rules of 5e due to how barrelmancy works means that you can do anything.
You could play this character as primarily a support character. Also focus Charisma and be the face of the party.
You won't be very great at combat, but you can certainly talk to people and give minor buffs. Maybe start with Bard. Also I think rogues at level 1 get an expertise, if I'm not mistaken (that might be level 2, correct me if I'm wrong) so there's that. Also if you go Charisma, that helps with some of the charisma caster spells.
Now it won't be a PLEASANT experience, but if you focused on support, your combat...improwess? can be made up for by your silver tongue.
BTW that is literally the only way I can think to make that even remotely work for *something.* If you don't do that, well. Just good luck.
