F/M/C will be more versatile. On the one hand, you will never get Time Stop and similar spells. You can however, cast them from scrolls, dual-wield with more proficiencies, and get warrior HLAs such as the unbelievable GWW. They're actually fairly different classes: with a M/C, I would advise bombardment from afar, akin to a sorcerer. A F/M/C should be master of buffs. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Let's say you use XP cap remover so you would get Time Stop. Still in favor of M/C ?

I think you'll find the M/C a tad difficult. It already is a very intensive character and solo'ing makes it even worse.

Anyhoo: F/M/C is easier, but the M/C will eventually be more powerfull, for obvious reasons ...

Which are ?

Improved Alacrity + a lot of spells is better then fully buffed and protected tank (undispellable) kicking ass with FOA + Crom ?

Is that it ? [/QUOTE]That's it! :D

Go see for yourself what a M/C is capable of, you'll be surprised.

However note that: if *you* find the F/M/C to be more powerful than the M/C, then by all means use it.

I wish they had never added most of them :(

Xen, that isn't a very valid arguement, as Ascencion would have been a very different mod if HLA's had not been implemented into ToB ;)
