Hey all it's me Someguy. For all out there who think that some classes are just wussy panzeys and weak little bugs that could be crushed in one blow should think again!I'm sure you all have met those annoying mages in the game and think to yourself "ha ha that mage is going to die"And then you just die of the spells being casted on you.that's what happen when a mage gets to those "high levels".That's right they become walking tanks.Bards are the same way.Along with druids.I know becuz I used to be the same way.That's all for now C ya!

yerp
cleric and mage is also another great combo...
at high level u can have...

bless, prayer, prot evil, prot evil 10', chant, recitation, defensive harmony, entropy, shield of lothander, resist fire/cold, prot from fire, prot from electricity, blur, mirror image, prot from normal missiles, prot from normal weapons, spirit armour, stoneskin, haste & mindblank.

a single cleric mage set up like this is virtually indestructable, and gains massive AC, save, & thaco bonuses!
course u have to find the required scrolls, so its best to concentrate all the good scrolls with one mage.

Cleric/Mage is a great combo. Gnomes are the best, since they get an extra spell each level (Illusionist). I just have to wonder, though, why would you want an indestructible spellcaster? There was only one battle in IWD where I needed defensive spells on my mage, to be able to let off a fireball and then run from arrows. Defensive cleric spells are perfect for my Fighter/Cleric, but on the whole I have found defensive mage spells to do little more than waste space in my spellbook.

I always like having a bit of a combo - tanks and spell casters...but just MHO... [img]smile.gif[/img]
