I have fun with any Sorcerer subclass in Baldur’s Gate 3, but some of the subclass abilities are more powerful than the others. If you’re wondering which are the best, here are the Sorcerer subclasses ranked.
Sorcerer Subclasses ranked in BG3
3. Wild Magic
Wild Magicmay be one of the most fun subclasses in the game, but the core abilities can be extremely beneficial or detrimental to your party. The Wild Magic abilities Tides of Chaos, Bend Luck, and Controlled Chaos are powerful, but do not exactly measure up to the other subclasses.
Tides of Chaos can be a game-changer at Level 1 with the ability to gain advantage on your next roll. Bend Luck can be a great ability to use in difficult situations, but you should consider if it is worth using 2 Sorcery Points. At Level 11, Controlled Chaos is an amazing ability to throw off spellcasters, especially in fights where they are difficult to reach.

2. Storm Sorcery
Storm Sorcery is a powerful subclass early on, especially since it unlocks the ability to Fly as a bonus action after casting a spell. The other abilities focus on dealing thunder or lightning damage and grant resistance to those damage types as well. Storm Sorcery is a great option for Sorcerers who want to be mobile and wield the power of lightning and thunder.
The Heart of the Storm abilities at Level 6 make the subclass pretty powerful, but the ability to Fly at Level 1 is really what sets Storm Sorcery apart from the others.
Here are the abilities you unlock by choosing the Storm Sorcery subclass:
1. Draconic Bloodline
Draconic Bloodline is the best Sorcerer subclass due to its abilities scaling very well, including gaining additional health at each level, gaining a resistance of your choice, and having higher AC with no armor. The Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer can get extremely powerful spells while also being able to take damage and stay in the fight.
Getting Draconic Resilience at Level 1 can be the best way to increase your AC without having to take an armor proficiency. When building a Draconic Sorcerer, it is important to consider what element your spells do because at Level 6, you can choose what element to add your Charisma modifier to. The Level 11 Fly ability is not as good as Storm Sorcery, but since it is a free action to fly, you can use it more often than Storm Sorcery’s Fly.
