Main benefit of this version is an | Main benefit of this version is an [[Improved Critical Hit]] (equivalent to about 5% overall damage increase). For a ranged build a [[File: Champion Icon.png|frameless|upright=0.1|24px|link= Champion]] [[Champion]] is more interesting than for a melee one - there are a lot of ways to guarantee crits for melee strikers in bg3. Still [[File: Battle Master Icon.png|frameless|upright=0.1|24px|link= Battle Master]] [[Battle Master]] [[#Level 3|Manoeuvers]] provide a comparable damage increase together with a ton of utility and flexibility.<br> | ||
Do note that [[File: Champion Icon.png|frameless|upright=0.1|24px|link= Champion]] [[Champion]] subclass makes more sense for this build if you try to minimise amount of long & short rests. | Do note that [[File: Champion Icon.png|frameless|upright=0.1|24px|link= Champion]] [[Champion]] subclass makes more sense for this build if you try to minimise amount of long & short rests. | ||

This variation brings a full caster in addition to getting 2 attacks (as a {{Class|Ranger}} or a {{Class|Fighter}}), especially - ability to utilise [[Concentration]] way better since {{Class|Bard}}s get a lot of great spells like [[Hold Person]], [[]], etc.<br> | |||
Main downside - [[File:Bardic Inspiration Icon.png|frameless|upright=0.1|24px|link=Bardic Inspiration]] [[Bardic Inspiration]] cannot be used on yourself. In the end while using all cool spells and abilities {{Class|Bard}} ends up not doing actual damage.<br> | |||
{{Class|Bard}} variation definitely trades some damage potential for support and utility. | |||
