The Monk in Baldur's Gate 3 is a class that uses few weapons and armor, but does deal massive damage via buffs to their unarmed attacks.

But without the right build, these characters can feel absolutely pathetic on the battlefield. Still, even the Monk has a chance to turn BG3 on its head. Let's talk about how.
Monks aren’t the strongest class, but the best possible Monk build in Baldur’s Gate 3 makes use of the Tavern Brawler feat to turn the monk into a heat-seeking missile that’s worth your time. This build isn’t one to take on without some gaming knowledge, as it will reduce your Monk’s AC and health – or their Wisdom – to the point where they’ll struggle to stun or knock down enemies.
However, if you apply the Tavern Brawler feat to a high Strength Monk, you can gain a massive bonus to attack and damage rolls with each punch, allowing you to deal extremely high and consistent damage to any target.
