Is the wizard slayer a poor class choice?

After Diviner its probably the single worst class in the game its supposed to rock in the addon though.

He's a challenge, if that's what you mean. You can't use any magic items except for weapons and armor. No magic bracers, rings, cloaks, boots, or even potions. That's right, you can't even drink healing potions.

The magic resistance does add up though. I can imagine a high-level Wizard Slayer being nigh invonerable to most magic.

The main disadvantage of Wizard Slayer is that he can not use healing potions. Disability of using magic items and other potions is not so important for me. But still I think this class is not bad choice. High magic resistance is very helpful, as well as ability to make enemy mages fail casting their spells with lucky hit. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif
Honestly, Wizard Slayer is my favorite class in BG2 http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

I'm going through with my Elven and Human Sorcerers first, and then my Human Dualclassed Cleric Of Lathander/Fighter.

jabidas 06-07-2001 08:47 PM

After the sorcerer its going to be the monk to see how the viconia romance turns out, playing as the monk got a lttle dull at the end.
