I'm in CH4 of the single player game, and CH2 of a group MPlayer game. Just curious to know what are your views on a party that you create on your own.

My ideas:
1. Sorceror (main char - I am partial to mages), primary mage
2. Priest of Talos, primary healer and backup tank
3. Cavalier, main tank
4. Wizard Slayer, main tank - ranged weapon as well
5. Thief (not sure what kind)
6. Kensai/Mage or Bard, backup mage

My MPlayer party looks like this:
1. Sorceror (main char) - me!
2. Priest of Helm - why is it that newbie RPGers refuse to play evil chars? http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...iles/smile.gif
3. Cavalier
4. Wizard Slayer
5. Skald
6. Bounty Hunter (Yoshimo) - our original Thief got fried, and we decided Yoshimo's stats aren't so bad after all.

Am I supposed to put something witty here?

Why dont make it..
6 wonderful Mages who kicks some ass.. =)
Or if you test 6 Half-Orc Barbarians they kick some ass without som magic.. =)

Test it and you will have good team.. or you might have 3 mages and 3 half-orc barbarians.. =)

My best character is a female fight-mage elf. 15 str (19 after bying the giant belt) 18 int
19 Dex
9 wis
16 const
8 cha

She was a total All for myself Tank. Imagine her fighting while having the cloak of mirror, imprHaste, blur, mirror image, stoneSkin and fireshield, and spell sequencer imprInvi stoneskin and blur while having contengency with stoneskin.. Did I mantion she is dual wielding Celestial fury and DayStar? She is my baby !

My multipl game i made a couple of Assassin/fighter dual class. A kensei and a cleric-mage multi class. I play solo that game just for the fun to male more characters and test them. I must say, an assassin level 8 dual class to fighter level 9 and +, Good thac0 for backstab and poison with throwing daggers or any missiles.
Kensey is very strong, I always do 20dmg whith him, grand master in 2 handed swords and 2 slots in 2 handed weapon fighting stile.

I think it's nice to try out all the classes that aren't in the game and which you haven't experienced yet. I think 6 bards or mages are booooooooooooooring http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...smiles/sd3.gif ~ducks for the 46745 magic missiles coming her way~
Just try to make a balanced party which serves all your needs - healing thieving fighting spellcasting - and keep one or more slots for NPC quests.

I'm currently in the process of making some half-orc barbarian kits for a multiplayer the kits are like babarian king, barbarian hunter, barbarian knight, barbarian cleric, barbarian mage & barbarian thief. the idea is to see how well the last agianst the game (i've only just finished barbarian hunter thats it)

I would go with:
Fighter/Thief duel class or multi--me http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...es/biggrin.gif
Paladin (either cavalier, undead hunter, or inquisitor)
Ranger/Cleric
Druid/Fighter multi
Sorceror or mage, possible mage/fighter multi or dueled fighter/mage
cleric or fighter/cleric duel


Another set up I want to try

Barbarian
Monk
Archer
Duel fighter/thief
multi cleric/mage
multi Druid/Fighter

Haven't played around enough with bards yet, but want to use them sometime.

In game
Front row meat shields---Minsc
---Keldorn
Scout/Rogue--------------Me--Fighter/thief dueled
Magic/support/shooters---Imoen--mage
---Jaheira--druid
---Aerie--cleric
It aint the best but it works http://www.tgeweb.com/ironworks/cgi-...es/biggrin.gif

Next game will be with me being an Ranger/Archer (Elf), and I'll probably pick up Jan as my thief, and drop Aerie. I might try droping Keldorn and getting Mazzy.

In my opinion, the fighter thief is one of the best character types, they are strong, can to thief things and to one hell of a lot of backstab damage, also, as a bonus, there are some armors that wont disable thief skills and are good for fighters!
