True Strike is bad in Baldur's Gate 3 and it is a complete waste of a cantrip choice no matter what your source of it is. It is one of the few spells with next to no usefulness as you can usually attack twice, and often hide to attack with advantage.

If you think True Strike is a good choice for a cantrip then you are sorely mistaken and it doesn't even work well when using the extended spell metamagic for sorcerers.

You can let me know why you think it is a good spell, but I'll probably respond letting you know why I think you're wrong.

Please do let me know if there are any builds you want me to show, which you can put into the comments or send me an e-mail to casualveterangamer@gmail.com.

Do keep in mind that Baldur's Gate 3 is still in early access and so the features shown in the video are subject to change and the game is incomplete, so expect more to be added to the game in the future. At time of recording the game was still in Early Access Patch 8, and by the time of the full release of Baldur's Gate 3 things may have changed.
