Also some interesting facts from the new community update: https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images//35190511/9846d1a69b5524b8b88d64011772b48469bf36f5.jpg [https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images//35190511/9846d1a69b5524b8b88d64011772b48469bf36f5.jpg]

Interesting! I think the companion classes affect the player class choice a lot. Paladin, Bard, and Sorc are all classes that no companion has, which also make good face characters. And nobody needs two Clerics, Shadowheart has you covered.
shadowheart got… narratively killed early on in Act 1 for my solo playthrough. I ended up switching Wyll to Cleric and getting a Bard hireling.
It turns out that there is a paladin option. But you have to do some evil stuff to recruit her.

Minthara comes as a powerful ally in Baldur’s Gate 3 – but at a cost. As a conniving Drow, BG3 Minthara only joins your party if you commit some atrocious acts.
