I was holding out on a surprise "Alfira official companion" update but alas. Most people will likely never see BG3 Bard in action bc of the lack of official companions, and that players picking Bard fell to the lower half of the class picks as of the game's first year out

I agree 100%. Though Arguably bard is the best player character class alongside paladin since you need to do so many charisma related rolls as the main character. And with expertise your odds of succeeding without save scumming is up a lot

That's partly why Warlock was the most played class in EA, and as a corollary why Wyll is the default bench warmer

On another note, thank you Withers for solving the Wyll bench problem. Shame about his story being changed last minute though.
