As I mentioned on a previous thread I have one week to go before I install IWD and HoW. Hey, the wife and kids are going away for two weeks to visit her mom, and I'll have many uninterupted hours to play! Anyway, I love to hear the makeup of other players party (I'll post later what my initial one is)and the reasoning for their selections. I learn a lot from other people's experiences. I realize that parties are on a per individual preference. In other words, there are no "right" or "wrong" parties. It depends on each individual player. So here are my questions.
1. What was the makeup of your party and why did you choose it as such? Which of your characters did you find indespensible?
2. What would you have done different and why?
3. The Bard and Druid classes in BG1 were very underwhelming. I decided to
avoid these in this game but it seems that there are many of you who see great advantages in these classes in IWD. Why? I would especially like to know if the Bard is worth developing and is it a better class than what was offered in BG1?
4.Is multi-class worth it? It seems there are some heavy hitters I'll be facing and I am wondering if the division of experience between classes will keep my characters too low in obtaining hp, spells, and "to hit" advances that will be critical to survival. Am I wrong on this tentative assumption?
5. For the fun of it I am going to use all six races in my first party. What would YOU do to make it work? What race would get what class, i.e. fighter, thief, cleric, etc. and why.
Thanks ahead of time.
