I play currently 2 BGII games in parallel : one in solo with my Bard Althalus, and one in multiplayer with my husband, where he is a mighty fighter and I am a Conjurer. I prefer mono-class characters because they are very proficient at what it is they do. Or just a touch of fighting skills for a mage so that he(she) does not fall stupidly at the first sword cut. Plus it is very frustrating to see my Bard doing nothing in almost all battles (yes, I know, he sings ...), and it is very odd to have a party leader always behind when we travel. I think playing a Bard in AD&D must be fun, but in computer RPG, it is not for today.
