I am a 17th level cavalier with the Holy Avanger(of course) and the pride of the legion and ring of gaxx.
I think Paladin is the best character in the game becouse they can have priest spell, lay on hand, turn undead and wield the best weapon in the game; THE HOLY AVANGER.

Good shall privail.

Three Cheers For The PALADINS!!!!!

yeah i would agree with you advatar but for a couple of points: need more experiance than fighters, can only specialize in wepons, and by the time u get the preist spells there pretty much useless.....

apart from that.....paladins rock!!!

Um, just one thing...the best weapon in the game has to be Crom Faeyr, not the Avenger. The Avenger is the 3nd best weapon in the game after Crom Faeyr and Celestial Fury.

I would rate it second, after Crom Faeyr, and thats only because you can wear a sheild with that! The Holy Avenger's 50% magic resistance and dispel magic on hit can be put to great effect.

Then again i just don't like katanas. any of them.

I finished the game as a female cleric (Priest of Lathander kit) wielding a Mace +3 and equipped with a Shield +3, Gorgon Plate +4, Balduran's Helmet and Bracers of Dexterity (stats STR 16 DEX 18 CON 17 WIS 18 INT 10 CHR 18 AC -10) and now I'm a male sorcerer.
It's really weird to play a male character but I wanted to find out if there are any differences storyline-wise. (there are!!!! Aerie and Jaheira are suddenly all over me...help!)

Which character is that quote from? is it Edwin or Xzar? or is it Tiax? i cant remember that far back....

It's Xzar, my favorite deranged schizophrenic paranoid wizard (I know dragons with feet like rabbits, 'tis true I swear!! Montaron, you are so aggravating! mommy I don't feel too well... Stop touching me! I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti...) Ok, so maybe I 'm a bit deranged too, knowing most of the characters lines by heart...oh well

Pity he wasn't in BG2, as i NPC i mean, conversations between him, Jan and Minsc would be close to madness...and very funny too

Carry on with this too

Worth another chance
