![]() The dice loss in Martial Arts doesn't apply in BG3, and the loss of Unarmed Strike (the free one) will only apply if you're using a heavy weapon. Some people will insist you're not a monk because you're not using exclusively unarmed strikes and you're not unarmored, even though nearly no actual monk combatant in history had only unarmed training, and you have 12 monk levels.Your Dex is crud so your initiative will suck, and you can't serve as the dedicated party untrapper/unlocker if you take Charlatan or Urchin.You lose the increased base speed, but you don't lose the ability to dash as a bonus action.What do you lose relative to Dex-based Unarmoured Monks? You like the monk flavour and conversation options but don't want to be less useful than literally any caster.You CAN get Great Weapon Master and that's what makes melee martials worth playing at all relative to archer builds or casters.As martial arts in BG3 is not disabled by wearing heavy armor, you don't need a Lizardfolk, Aarakocra, Tabaxi or Minotaur to be able to do acceptable damage with unarmed strikes while heavily armoured, so if multiclassing you can do this with any race.Due to the removal of the Dodge action for unknown reasons, it's also the hardest class in the game to kill between it and Evasion.It can hit really damn hard - pure monks deal double that of Fighters in the first few levels before you get your armor in exchange for dying easily, marginally superior to Fighters for the next 6 levels before falling behind at exactly level 11 once they get their third attack.It can halve fall damage from unexpected changes in terrain, which suddenly becomes a thing since Feather Fall was nerfed into a bonus action spell for some reason.It can nope ranged attacks once per round.It has more mobility than any other melee class, and this is actually pretty important in BG3.This is a guide on how to build a heavy armour monk in Baldur's Gate 3 if you're into that kind of thing. Hi, this is the original creator of both the lizardfolk heavy armour shadow monk build, and the battlemaster gloomstalker assassin war cleric war wizard pentaclass that people keep plagiarising/independently recreating lesser versions of after its debut post-Xanathar.
