Here are eight exceptional feats to consider for your Rogue in BG3:

Sharpshooter

For ranged Rogues, Sharpshooter is a game-changer. Ignore cover, extend your attack range, and boost damage by 10 (at the cost of a -5 penalty to hit). Transform your Rogue into a lethal sniper, delivering precise, powerful attacks from afar.

Skilled

Unleash unparalleled versatility. Gain proficiency in three skills or tools of your choice. Become a master of stealth, acrobatics, and sleight of hand, or the party's go-to locksmith, tracker, and appraiser. Adapt your Rogue to any situation.

Athlete

Enhance your Rogue's agility and finesse. Climb and rise from prone positions effortlessly, and execute running jumps with ease. Navigate treacherous terrain, dodge traps, and leap obstacles with grace and speed. Also gain a +1 to Strength or Dexterity.

Tough

Even the stealthiest Rogue will take damage. Tough significantly increases your hit points, bolstering survivability. Combined with a Rogue's natural evasion, you become remarkably resilient.

Mobile

Perfect for hit-and-run tactics. Strike from range, then vanish without penalty. Ideal for both melee and ranged combat, allowing for strategic repositioning.

Alert

Avoid the deadly surprise mechanic. Alert ensures you act first, minimizing the risk of being caught off guard. The initiative bonus is a valuable asset in any encounter.

Dungeon Delver

*Baldur’s Gate 3* is filled with traps and locked containers. Dungeon Delver enhances your Rogue's natural aptitude, allowing for easy trap detection and disabling, and effortless lock picking. A significant quality-of-life improvement.

Crossbow Expert

Unleash the power of the crossbow. Use your crossbow for sneak attacks at close range, and deal increased sneak attack damage at all ranges. A devastatingly effective and thematic choice.

Lucky

A universally beneficial feat. Three Luck Points allow you to gain advantage on attacks, ability checks, or saving throws, and force enemy attack rerolls. Refreshes after a long rest.

Savage Attacker

Ideal for melee Rogues. Roll damage dice twice, using the highest result for devastating melee attacks. Maintains high damage output even without sneak attacks.
