Considering whether to add Valygar to the party or just kill him and take his body. Have Minsc now and may add Mazzy or Keldorn as well but doubt I can have all three. My character is a sorcerer so I need some beef up front.

Truth be told, I think, Valygar is quite good when it comes to fighting wether you decide to dual wield katanas or put slots in 'single weapon style' but I would suggest given him the guanlets of ogre power to beef up the to hit/damage part of his game. Can backstab but not with his katana and his stealth is makes him a good choice for investigating areas undetected.

Great NPC. I used him through most of my first game and he was always very solid. I wouldn't quite call him a tank, but he is a great assassin/utility player.

I'd go with Mazzy, Valygar and Keldorn or Minsc, since both Minsc and Keldorn use two handed sword, while Mazzy and Valygar use short sword and katana, so you can have a mix of weapons. And probably Keldorn over Minsc because Minsc and Valygar are both rangers.

Minsc rules!! How u can compare this tough guy with these wimpy fighters? He's a dual-wielding master or a great two-handed fighter. His Con is alright, also his dex and STR too. After all these things are not important, the matter is his personality I like him he's so funny. Mazzy is a shortling and she's a woman. Valygar sucks. Keldorn's dex is only 9 and he's such a stupid paladin.

Zoltan, you have obviously been bribed by Minsc and Boo! Curioius, what would they offer you, did Minsc let you pet the hamster?

Keldorn
full stop. If you don't have an Inquisitor Paladin, get one now!

Question about Valgyar, if I take him into my party, complete his quest and then kill him, can I complete the other quests as well....
