I never used Wyll much in my very own Baldur’s Gate 3 game, which made me realize that he didn’t suit just being a Warlock. Sure, Eldritch Blast is an important Cantrip, but he barely had any Warlock spell slots to make use of other spells. To make Wyll a more useful companion, I created a Warlock/Fighter multiclass construct that makes Wyll an important character to have in your team. Here’s tips on how to create the most effective Wyll construct in Baldur’s Gate 3.
Baldur’s Gate 3: Best Warlock/Fighter multiclass Wyll construct
Respecing Wyll to be a Great Old One Warlock and a Battle Master Fighter is the most effective thing you may do for him. He can’t only fight with a weapon, but occasionally pull out some Warlock spells. This makes him a really versatile party member who can each do melee and ranged fighting. Let’s dive into how you may create this great multiclass Wyll construct.

The wonderful thing about this construct is the incontrovertible fact that Wyll is usually a Fighter together with his Warlock Pact of the Blade. He could make attacks using his Charisma modifier, and he knows some very useful Maneuvers. I selected the Spell Sniper and Sentinel feats to combine well with each classes, Warlock and Fighter respectively. Just be sure that Wyll is using a Simple weapon, nothing Versatile, or else he won’t gain the additional damage from his Fighting Style.
