Hexblade might the best 1-level dip in Baldur's Gate 3, but going the distance with a full 12 levels and their infinite necrotic ghost turrets has me fixing to finally beat the game without multiclassing

Last week, my coworker, news writer Harvey Randall, wrote a 100% correct love letter to taking a single level of Baldur's Gate 3's new Hexblade in a multiclass build. Hexblade gets so much at level one⁠—Charisma-based melee attacks, Shield on short rest, Booming Blade, easier critical hits⁠—that almost any melee character could be improved with a cheeky nip of Hexblade. Swashbuckler 11 / Hexblade 1, Paladin 7 / Hexblade 5, Eldritch Knight 11 / Hexblade 1, they all spank.

But I'm almost to the end of act one on Honour mode...
