In the world of Baldur’s Gate 3, choosing the right race for your Bard character can greatly impact their abilities and playstyle. While all races have their own unique strengths and weaknesses, some stand out as particularly well-suited for the Bard class.
One of the best races for a Bard is the Half-Elf. Half-Elves gain proficiency in two skills of their choice, giving them a wide range of options to customize their character. They also have the Fey Ancestry trait, which gives them advantage on saving throws against being charmed or put to sleep, and they can speak, read, and write Elvish. This makes them a great choice for Bards who want to focus on social skills and enchantment magic.
