[Lord Ludtke]

I don't like any of the NPC's, so I made up my own party.

I started with an elven fighter/thief. Stack up on long sword and sword and shield style. Have Baldun Plate on hand for fighting, switch over to Shadow Dragon armour for doing thieving stuff. Good enough to take care of all traps and locks and a good fighter.

Tank- ala Half-orc fighter stacked in two-handed sword, and twohanded style. Good full plate, and the boots of speed only pre req for this guy.

Human fighter dualed to a cleric. Stack the flail and sword and shield style before dualing and gave her the Flail of ages. Can hit anything in the game and healing/resurrector.

Cleric/mage is my next character. Jack of all trades, master of none. I was basically just experimenting with this one, and I liked the fact of having 2 char that can resurrect in case my cleric bites it.

Mage was my last character. I made two mistakes here:1)I should have been a sorcerer since there are really only 4 or 5 spells from each level that I use anyway. 2)I picked illusionist whose opposition school is necro, which has a lot of powerful attacking spells.

Thats my group, I try to make them as self sufficient as possible. I don't run back to town for every little thing, and I don't rest until every spell is used. My main char gets the Gaxx, but I pass that around to whoever is hurt. The mage gets the Robe of Vecna. The cleric gets the 2nd best plate, with the shield of the fortress and that Everend sling that doesn't need ammo. Those are the major ones that I can think of now.
