I have always played a Ranger.
Never heard of Drizzt until I fell over him in BGI. Then I read the books after I played the game, didn't know he was a ranger until the books.
Started off as a Ranger in Diablo I, (and an Amazon who specialised in bows in Diablo II) then in BGI, and BGII I was always a Ranger.
I always fancied a cleric as well, because they could summon animals to help. But in 2nd Edition rules, Clerics couldn't use bows.
Now in NWN nights and 3rd edition rules, I am a half elven Ranger level 11 and Cleric level 7, who can put anything down with my bow, summon a bloody great bear to knock my enemies to the ground, and slash em to bits with my longsword if I have too. Perfect.
I prefer to pick my enemies off from a distance, you know, they don't know what hits em. Shove a few arrows in them and then finish them off with my animal or my sword.
Just my tuppence worth.
Also I just don't fancy being a mage, by the time I have remembered what spell does what, I am dead and I don't seem to be able to do much damage with a titchy dagger or a bit of wood....... ah well, each to their own.
I am sure I am going to be told otherwise about that, but I panic when I get overwhelmed by monsters when I play and don't always think about spells, I just hit em.
I am going to play NWN again, and try and get to grips as a wizard, see how I go.
Ooooh and I always either play Human, Elf or Half elf. Cos they are pretty. See I am a girl I can say that.
