Baldur’s Gate 3 player invents “Mean Girls” party combination
Larian StudiosA Baldur’s Gate 3 player put together a party comp for anyone wanting to surround themselves with the most sarcastic and passive-aggressive characters possible.
Baldur’s Gate 3 has a wide variety of companions you could use to make up a party. Whether you’re min-maxing for the most effective team possible, or you’ve got lore reasons for why Wyll has to stay in camp for the entire game, there’s a ton of flexibility in the three characters you have accompanying you through the Sword Coast.
Whoever you choose, there will always be some well-written banter between your party members as you wander around. But what if you wanted that banter to be as aggressive and catty as possible?
Baldur’s Gate 3 player recreates Mean Girls cast with companions
Well, one player on the Baldur’s Gate 3 subreddit has got you covered. They proposed including Shadowheart, Lae’zel and Astarion in a party to make a “Mean Girls” party comp.
Now you might be thinking that Astarion doesn’t belong there, but think about it. Karlach definitely isn’t a good fit for the theme, because it’s biologically impossible for her to be mean. Astarion has the perfect personality for the composition as the sassiest character in the game, a qualification that transcends gender.
Of course, if you’re willing to wait until Act 2, you could also recruit Minthara to the squad, but she’s a bit too direct in her meanness. The passive-aggressive banter between Lae’zel and Shadowheart is clearly the highlight of this build, but because you’re packing a cleric and a rogue, you’re lacking a bit in damage. You had better hope Lae’zel can carry the party.
