Are we talking favorite personality or favorite contributing party member? My previous post was based on favorite personality. But my favorite contributing party member - toss up between Kivan and Ajantis.

I thought it was a combination of things but if I had to pick based on favorite contributing party member it would be Imoen mainly she is with you from the start and just so useful.

I'm starting to like Yeslick but he certainly ain't the best either. In fact, he could be the weakest link in my party.

Oh, BTW, not to take the gloss off our fav. ranger Kivan, but I made an elven ranger with dex of 19 and the bow of marksmanship and I found her to be a KILLING machine with bows and that +2 long sword.

Minsc is nice!

LOL, I generally do that with MY ranger, only hes male [img]tongue.gif[/img] I also give him the bracers of archery and boots of avoidence. ;) It helps cut down when facing pesty kobolt commandos, or black talons, or anyother shooty annoyance [img]tongue.gif[/img]

imoen is good but in contribution to the party its always my main char [img]tongue.gif[/img] i think khalid though as my other tank has got the most kills, branwen i think has the least because most of the time shes healing or buffing everyone else and not actually hitting too much

purre: Your difficulty in talking to Khalid is most likely a result of sucking all your points from Charisma to put them elsewhere.

Kivan is, on all counts, an excellent character. His CON isn't great, but as a Warrior, he gets decent hitpoints anyway, so give him a good Bow and a good Spear or Halberd, and he'll be a great backup Tank for as long as your Rep. is good. However. As far as combat goes, there's not a damn thing Kivan can do that Coran can't do better. Archery-wise, he'd put Kivan's ass in a sling six times before breakfast, and let's not forget that he's all the Thief you'll ever need if you train him right. Sure, his STR is only 14 compared to Kivan's 18(12), but just give Coran the Gauntlets of Ogre Power, and then sit back and watch that bad boy Backstab. Sure, his picture is ugly as sin. So? Give him a new one. Sure, you can't recruit him until you're in Chapter 4. So? If you know the game, you can blaze through Chapters 1-3 fast as lightning. Once, I entered the Bandit Camp when my PC (a Fighter) was only Level 1....although he was Level 3 by the time we left.

Coran. Coran Coran Coran.

ugly npc in my party?! i think not, not after i kicked out montaron xzar and kagain for crimes against fashion [img]tongue.gif[/img] well probably kicked em out more for being useless characters [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Link in my sig
Chapter 12 (you only need to read the first paragraph)

Useless? You just named 3 of the 5 NPCs I chose for my Evil game. Add Shar-Teel, Viconia, and Fenris Melkior, and you've got the most horrific scourge that ever menaced the Sword Coast. That's right, I chose Xzar over Edwin.

1. Germani (me) Check out

NPC? DYNAHEIR, Coran, Ajantis, Immy, Skie.

Khalid isn´t half bad either, better than his bravery would make you believe.
