If you are one with nature and animals, you should consider playing the underrated Druid class in Baldur’s Gate III. There is no other class that has its unique gameplay method of being able to turn into an animal and fight as it. In addition, this is the class you want to play if you’d like to speak with animals and see a whole new hidden world of this game open up to you. Here are somethings to consider when creating the best Druid build for you in Baldur’s Gate III.

What Is the Best Druid Subclass in Baldur’s Gate 3?

There are three subclasses that players have access to with the Druid: Circle of the Moon, Circle of the Land, and Circle of Spores. Like the other classes, you can’t go wrong with any of these. Your subclass is mainly a matter of preference that you can unlock at level two.

Circle of the Moon is for the players who want more beast transformation options. Land is for those who want to be able to transform more often. Spores is for those who want a highly unique fungi-based poison control build.
