Baldur’s Gate 3: Best Eldritch Knight build in BG3
What happens when the pen and the sword join forces?


Of all of Baldur’s Gate 3’s Fighter subclasses, the Eldritch Knight has the most potential as a spellcaster. Through currents of magic, you can make a build capable of holding the frontlines while casting strong spells. Even without multiclassing, Eldritch Knights can be fierce combatants.
However, the Eldritch Knight isn’t the easiest class to turn into a powerhouse early in the game. Optimizing this subclass takes a lot of thought and planning, between spell choices and feats. Thankfully, there are a few steps you can take right away to make the build better for the late game.
