I'm just starting up BG2 and created a thief character with the intention of changing over to a monk. However it doesnt look like i have that option - why is that so ? Im really intrigued by the monk character, I wanted to have great find trap/pick lock skills to as to eliminate the need for a thief later on meanwhile playing a character (monk)i really want. Any ideas ? Thanks

You can only dual class to characters that you can create multi-class. This means no monks or paladins. That would be a deadly combo. A thief who could sneak up behind you and give you the quivering palm to the back of the head. *shivers*

It can't be done Steve. Sorry mate :(
Only valid multi-classes can be dualed.

Monks are not valid dualclass options.

Talk about rapidfire synchronised replies. [img]tongue.gif[/img] ;) [img]tongue.gif[/img]

At least we all didn't contradict each other in the same minute. :D

Steve,
WELCOME TO THE FORUM!!!!

Dundee,
Off topic. What's your newest solo?

Looks like i found THE ultimate bg2 site ! thanks for the quick replies ! Bummer about the monk, I played couple months last year as a monk, loved it but didnt like lugging shamino just for his thieving abilities...

My solo Sorcerer is currently taking a vacation, because seriously... nobody is giving him a challenge, and this is taking into consideration that his spell list is slightly flawed. [img]tongue.gif[/img] I will finish ToB with him eventually, by the end of next week.

My solo Assassin is in the Temple Ruins, going for her Shadow Dragon Scale Armour. The 'weakest' of all my solo characters, but one of the richest. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

My solo Archer is in the Temple Sewers now, awaiting my orders to enter the Cult of the Unseeing Eye. He has a Shield of Balduran, and I intend to level him up a 'little' bit. ;) Oh, and Call Shot plus Whirlwind equals a really cool turret. ;) Eats up a lot of arrows though, I think only the weaponsmith in Waukeen's Promanede still sells ammunition, I bought everything everywhere else. The poorest of all my solo characters. ;)

My latest solo character is a Wizard Slayer. I intend to dual him to a Mage at level 13. This is for my own roleplaying.
