Well my first run through was with a motley crew of a CG Elf Fighter/Thief, Haer'Dails, Edwin, and Viconia, and it was basically a cakewalk for the most part. To be honest that was my only complete runthrough because ever since then I've done plenty of solo attempts which usually get abandoned before spellhold because they don't pan out the way I wanted, but my Berserker/Mage was another one that I was inspired to make from a picture, and that one I took through he underdark until the game became too easy. It consisted of Stoneskin, fireshield:red, Mirror Image, berserk, sunfire, cleanup and for advanced battles a little more tact, but that was basically it. I've done countless attempts with small parties, most of which were abandoned due to wanting to try something new constantly, and never saving my save games when it comes time to reformat(which I do periodically). So I would say that if I wanted a particular item early on in the game I would know where to look, and I know how to get through some of the tougher battles. But as to NPC's I only have used a few because in most cases they have an over the top personality which in most cases (excluding Jan) is annoying. So what I want is what NPC's would go well with this type of character firstly personality wise, and secondly classwise. Also when would be a good time to dual a thief to a fighter and are avengers any good and how do you think jaheira would do as one?

EDIT: How do you think I planned on changing jaheira to an avenger? SK. And I know how to change paper dolls, but are there any in existence which would actually do a kensai any justice? Oh, BTW I think the Monk is the worst looking of ant of the paper dolls. And no I don't have TOB.
