I haven’t played at all yet since I’ve been waiting for the full release.

I’m thinking of rolling up the tempest cleric pirate I used to play in an IRL campaign. I remember using some shenanigans with taking Magic Initiate for Booming Blade, delivered with a whip, which felt fun and not too OP. Edit: Guess I’m not doing that since there’s no Booming Blade in BG3 yet :(

Any fun builds you’ve already tried in the Early Access?

    Yeah I was also thwarted by the lack of Booming Blade. I had some ideas based on regular 5e, but I hadn’t looked at what made it into the game until yesterday (I wanted to remain unspoiled until launch but, yeah).

    I’m looking at some kind of Gish, but I’ll explore more when the game is out. Ideally it won’t be a SorcAdin (I dislike paladins), but perhaps that is the only viable vanilla approach at launch.
