Ironworks Gaming Forum - View Single Post - Do you ever "improve" a starting character, as if he's gone through BG1?

Just wondering. I'm on the fence with this one.

On one hand, I think to myself, "Ya know Klorox, you've beaten BG1 so many times over, why shouldn't a game you feel like playing in BG2 reflect this?"

On the other hand, I think to myself, "Yeah, but this new Fighter/Thief hasn't gone through BG1, and if you want him to have those bonuses, you really should play the entire game over again."

Which way do you go?

BTW, for the record, if you complete BG1 and TotSC, your starting XP willbe higher (161,000 vs. the standard 89,000), and you'll have +1 to all of your stats, except WIS which has a +3.
