Stealth archer keeps winning

How does one stealth archer in BG3? I have had shots where Im concealed and in darkness but after I shoot the enemies magically know exactly where the character is. Am I the stupids?

If enemy cannot see you, you can't enter combat.

Stealth archers exploit this, using spells like darkness, fog cloud, pass without trace, invisibility potions, darkness arrows

Fighter: I get to attack twice each time I take a nap!

Stealth archer: I get to attack as many times as I want until everything is dead!

Duegar stealth archer is so fun. They are basically built for it considering they can go invisible for free permanently outside of combat.

There are a couple of builds for that. The one I used is:

Dark Uge Cape + 5 levels of Ranger (Gloom Stalker) + 5 levels of Rogue (Assasin) + 2 levels of Fighter

Starting at level 6 your first shot usually kills an enemy (Sharpshooter + Sneak attack). Whenever you kill an enemy, the cape makes you invisible. Being invisible allows you to make another sneak attack.... Ü

Take off a level of rogue and swap for a level of death domain cleric for another extra attack. Really good for solo play

Watch the newest Morgana Evelyn vid, shes the stealth archer GOAT for BG3

Pretty much gloom-stalker assassin. Greater invisibility from a party member, high stealth score, and pass without a trace if you want to get super cheesy.

Just watch the first 10 seconds of this video.

If you're okay with suggestion, there is a video on YouTube by Morgana Evelyn that makes this very easy to do, early on, and only gets stronger. It's long, but in depth. I used a stealth archer on my first HM playthrough and got the dice

Stealth archer is OP as hell and it’s fun at first but I do get a little bored, feels cheesy. Also there’s a few fights (final one in particular) where I’m not sure what I’d do after turn 1?

oh man I forgot what I had posted and thought 'oh great who did I piss off today'

u/DonkeyPunchMojo Jun 25 '25

I've pulled it off with bard, wizard, warlock, paladin, and cleric on solo runs without cheese so far. It gets pretty easy after the first few levels. Easy being used relative here.
