I want to trade either Jahiera or Aeire for Keldorn. I don't care about the romance stuff. who should I get rid of?

My Party:
Me-fighter/human
Minsc
Jaheira
Yoshimo-I'll probably sack him for Imoen later?
Aeire
Edwin

Jahiera, you have enough cleric abilities with Aerie.

Toss Jaheira, if you must. I use her abilities alot less than Aerie's, plus Aerie has everything that Jaheira does, and Mage abilities. Double your pleasure, double your fun...you know?? http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

I prefer Jaheira myself because im more of a fighting person and she has a more interesting personality.
Also, my favourite spell is insect plague.

Actually, the first step might be to get rid of Edwin. Your party is neutral and good, and Edwin is evil. This will eventually lead to conflicts within the group. You might want to replace him for Jan (thief and wizard both), then replace Yoshimo with Keldorn. This will keep a thief in your party, still keep 2 wizards (though both will be multiclassed; you seem to want to lean more towards warriors anyway), and you will still have both Aerie and Jaheira as healers (you will need 2 healers with that many warriors). Jaheira has some spells that neither Anomen nor Aerie have (fire elementals, insect plague, etc.), so you might want to keep her. Aerie is extremely useful as a spellcaster, so definitely keep her. Hope this helps!

With that party I would dump Aerie, especially if you are going to get Imoen later (mage/thief). Aerie is a good cleric/mage, but with Edwin and later Imoen, you don't really need another mage. Like stated above, Jaheira has some cool spells that Aerie cannot get.

Also, if you don't mind having a good/evil mixed party, I would think about Viconia, she is a pretty good cleric!

I know that Edwin will have conflicts but He's the best mage in the game and I want to keep him.He kicks a$$ The only reason I want Keldorn in my party is because I want to be able to use the sword that i get from Firkragg. I'm kind of leaning towards kicking Jahiera off my party. I just don't want to regret my decision later on in the game.

For my money, Aerie is just plain weak.

I'd recommend dropping Edwin, as he tends to have conflicts with Minsc and Keldorn if they are in the same party. I know he is very good, but he is-for my money-out of place in a party that is predominantly good. You could supplant Keldorn for Edwin, and bring in Jan for Yoshimo ?? Then later replace Jan with Imoen when you get her.
If you are irrevocably attached to Edwin though, I'd drop Aerie as you are going to replace Yoshimo with Imoen-and two mages is more than adequate. Besides Jaheira is a better healer and a good support fighter.
Hmmmm, hope that helps and good luck in your game.

I got keldorn kind of late my first go thru for the same reason. I wanted to see how good he was with the Carsomyr +5 that you get from Firkragg. He was awesome to say the least. I threw on the belt of weapons expertise and he really rocked.
