Summary
ABaldur’s Gate 3player has created a rather unusual build, basing it on the fourth-wall-breaking Marvel superhero, Deadpool. Over six months since its initial release,Baldur’s Gate 3continues to inspire new ways of playing the game, and this latest build blends superheroes with high fantasy.
The many possible builds inBaldur’s Gate 3is one of the game’s greatest strengths. At times, it seems like Larian has thought of every single thing that players might consider for a build, and implemented a way for it to be possible in-game. Some players, such as the one creating this Deadpool build, don’t take it too seriously, inventing unique builds that give them a one-of-a-kind playthrough. Others look for overpowered builds that make the game much easier to complete. Then, there are people who go wild with aMurder Hobo build inBaldur’s Gate 3- all are totally valid ways of playing the game.
Redditor Clever_Droid shared the build based on Deadpool, which they have cleverly dubbed “Drowpool.” The character has deep red skin, black markings, and white eyes that resemble the popular Marvel superhero. According to the user, thisunusualBaldur’s Gate 3buildis fully committed to dual-wielding crossbows and swords throughout the entire game. However, there was one missed opportunity that could have taken this build to the next level. When asked if Drowpool was a Bard for the comical dialogue options, Clever_Droid replied, “I can’t believe I didn’t think of that.”

Others in the thread had some other thoughts on the build. Some felt it resembled another Marvel superhero in the form of Drax the Destroyer fromGuardians of the Galaxy. The resemblance is there, andBaldur’s Gate 3offers enough roleplaying opportunitiesthat players could certainly try to mimic Drax in-game. The name Drow the Destroyer writes itself, too. One gamer floated another cool idea, to create a bootleg version of Wolverine and have them be Drowpool’s guardian. Reading through the thread, it becomes clear how much potential the Drowpool build has for those who are willing to commit to the bit.
InBaldur’s Gate 3, it feels as though players have barely scratched the surface of what’s possible. The depth is almost overwhelming, and it’s likely that these types of unusual builds are going to be popular for a very long time yet. Some even think that potentialBaldur’s Gate 3DLC should add more playable races, which would only increase players' possibilities for roleplaying. The good news is that Larian Studios continues to release frequent updates for the game, soBaldur’s Gate 3is only going to get better for the foreseeable future.
