BG3 Tempest Domain Tips & Builds
- Tempest Domain focuses on melee combat. Having Martial Combat and Heavy Armor training enables them to wield weapons and armor that other Cleric subclasses cannot use without requiring additional feats. This domain specializes in dealing elemental damage in close range, mostly lightning. They can also disrupt enemies from a distance when they try to close in.

Step 1: equip Waterspark Boots and Sparkwall Ring to your Tempest Cleric. Also equip some Reverberation equipment (Gloves of Belligerent are a good choice. Could also sub out for Stormy Clamour Boots instead)
Step 2: Have someone else cast Level 6 upcasted Create Water over your targets.
Step 3. Have your Cleric stand in the water and cast Call Lightning on something in the water.
Step 4: Watch enemies constantly get blasted backwards trying to reach you.

Kinda seeing a really amusing blastwave tempest cleric, you stack reverberate with the gloves of belligerent skies and boots of stormy clamour, get the nyrulna and when you throw it you blast anyone with reverberations or teleport in and super hero landing with destructive wave.
Do a little more searching and test it, if ring of spiteful thunder and spine shudder amulet works too, you could use the tempest channel to get max damage on the blast wave, get 4-6 stacks of reverberation, knockdown every enemy with the blast or the prone from the boots.
Since you are also a cleric and do both radiant or necrotic damage with the wave plus guardian spirits you could stack up radiant orbs or whatever necrotic damage might be able to stack... you could even get the Markoheshkir if you don't want to go that deep in cleric later I guess.
I shall have some coffee and test this out.

Used to main Life, now Tempest is the only domain for me. For all of the flak Tempest seems to garner, it is a phenomenal CC + Healer with the right equipment.
Water Sparklers + Sleetstorm is hilarious and effective beyond reason. Cast sleet storm on crowd, stand at edge; Have the character with highest initiative roll (or if it's your cleric at top initiative, who ever follows them) melt the ice with firebolt; the massive puddle will immediately get electrified, and with a lvl 6 Tempest Cleric, anything getting electrocuted on their turn will not only take damage but experience guaranteed knockback. When the Cleric finishes their turn, the puddle will refreeze, knocking everyone prone and halving movement with difficulty terrain. Repeat the process to lockdown a massive portion of the battlefield for 10 rounds, using nothing more than a 3rd level spell and a cantrip.

Here's what you do:
You put all your stats into WIS, CHA and CON. Start as tempest cleric. Multiclass into draconic sorcerer and spread levels equally. At max level you throw water at whatever you want to cease exisitng. Then you cast 2 lightning bolts in the same turn 1 at 6th level and 1 at 5th level, both automatically at max possible damage and double damage thanks to wet mechanic

A great subclass…… to take two levels in on other classes. As a monoclass cleric it’s mediocre . We REALLY need booming blade.

Think the first hit of chain lightning can crit...
so if you level wizard, get a chain lightning scroll and learn it, then use freecasting (no spell cost), i think you can then respec into this and get a ridiculous crit on a wet target...

Single turn fun:
- Drop a water bottle next to a group of enemies as a Free Action
- Shoot the water bottle with your Bonus Action using a Hand Crossbow
- Cast Call Lightning with your Action, proc maximized damage, for a 60 damage AoE.

If you're looking for one of the strongest/funniest tempest build in my opinion, here's my input :
Until level 6, I was quite satisfied with the tempest cleric : quite straightforward, good damage, strong cc. But then, I discovered some insane combo that made the build amongst the funniest in the game, in my opinion.
At level 6, every lightning damage you deal push targets, without saving throw (if I'm not wrong). I thought "Ok, little bit weak for lvl 6, but meh...". God I was wrong.
The CC is applied on every sources of lightning damage. Lightning aura ? Yes. Electrified water field ? Yup'. You basically can turn into a monstruous automatic CC turret with the right preparation/equipment. Sleet storm, that was cool but kinda meh, becomes your most OP spell, converting half of the map into perma-CC land, as it can become electrified water after the first ice round, without saving throw.
Combine it with the Watersparkers boot (must have, in my opinion, can be found next to Mynthara spot in Act 1), and you get yourself scandaleous combo with sleet storm. Get the Real Sparky Sparkswall (shield in Grymforge, act 1), and you'll have a lightning aura that will perma CC enemies. Basically, every "automatic lightning damage items" are broken, with this build, starting from lvl 6. Give it a try, you'll have a blast (pun intented)

Two things hold tempest back, the lack of the booming blade cantrip in game. Which would let them function in melee. And no access to lightning bolt. Really they should have given them lightning bolt at least.

Been trying to make a lightning themed mage. Tried a few times multiclassing this and storm sorc, seems the best thing to do if for purely RP running 1 level cleric tempest with 11 storm sorc. at lower levels that lightning reaction to being melee'd is helpful, also running level 1 temp cleric allows for heavy/medium armor/high AC melee caster. nothing like the feeling of charging in and twin casting shocking grasp and not worrying about being killed the next turn. Also RPing a literal stormcloak follower of Talos (god of storms).

Currently you can take one level of wizard and scribe higher level wizards spells from you cleric levels, so with wizard 1/tempest 11 you can get lighting bolt and chain lightning etc.
- Anonymous
Love how the lightning subclass gets almost no lightning spells, no lightning bolt, no chain lightning, pathetic. Only good way to go for a lightning caster is 2 levels in this here tempest cleric bc of destructive wrath and then going 10 levels in draconic sorcerer(lightning ancestry ofc) for the lightning spells, metamagic and all that stuff, makes a very good lighning spellcaster, WAY better than 12 levels of tempest cleric.
