Insane damage and attacks build for Astarion.
Watch “Toyhouze” video for video on build: https://youtu.be/P6L5Jq3Yr9I?si=mEBUw4ARhhkJQQep
This is just a written guide that makes it easier to see it without skipping through the video for info.
You can use his Rogue starting class until you get to level 5 and then Respec at Withers. It will probably be better damage early on.
ACT 1:
Much of the gear from Act 1.
Get “+1 Hand Crossbows” (from Damon in the Grove) early until you get the better weapons.
“Strange Conduit Ring” is good until you get “Callous Glow Ring” or someone else need the ring.
Use “Mage Armor” buff from “Camp buffer” to get higher AC when using “The Graceful Cloth”.
ACT 2:
Get “Drakethroat Glaive” from Roah, the Vendor in Moonrise Towers for “Elemental Weapon” buff on weapon(s).
When you get both “Na’er Misser” and “Hellfire Hand Crossbow”, always keep “Na’er Misser” in your main-hand for making your damage “Force Damage” (few/no enemies with resistance to Force damage).
Also, if you play as Durge, give Astarion the “Deathstalker Mantle” cloak so he can inflict the burning from “Hellfire Hand Crossbow” after he kills (Bonus action shot). Use “Arrow of Many Targets” for easy spread.
ACT 3:
Make Astarion a “V.A.” early to get the 1d10 bonus to attacks and the weapon “Rhapsody”.
Can use other armors if getting Hag hair and knocking 20 Dex without “The Graceful Cloth” or you can choose another feat at level 12.
DIV INFO:
“Horde Breaker” gives 2 attacks per “Action” and eventually 3 attack when we get “Extra Attack” at level 5.
“Sneak Attack” gives extra damage when we have advantage 1 time per turn.
“Elixir of Bloodlust” Is the best elixir.
Can eventually attack up to 8 times for a turn, if you combine that with the “Arrow of Many Targets”, it will be a lot of damage going around.
