Hey, cool it Russ! You ask a question, expect to get answers that you dont want. You will get many helpful answers and no so helpful ones. The skill that you need, is the ability to throw out the ones that you dont need and keep the ones that you do! The more you snap at people like that, the less eagerly that will help you with future problems.
anyways here is my two cents worth:
Get Keldorn (oh how I hate him!. I prefer two true tanks in my party. Him and minsc are are very "compatabile" Also you can make Keldorn amost impervious to any type of magic if you get the right type of items
Keep Mazzy: She is the best archer in the game and can provide frontline skills in a clich.
Keep Jerhoria (I prefer viconia because of her cleric ability)
Keep Arie because she is a decent mage/cleric
The yourself.
This party formation will provide a balance between your tanks and ranged attacks. Also you will have decent (not great) clerics and mages.
To further advance your group, you would need to get some evil party members. I would first get vicona (best cleric in the game with a strenth enhancing items) and drop Jeharia.
Drop Arie and get Edwin. Best mage in the game. However if you do, expect problems between him and Minsc. If you choose Edwin, I would get Korgan for my other tank.
If you feel your weakness is your theiving ability (finding traps, disarming them etc) drop Arie and pick up Imoan. (later in the game) Or you got with Jan.
There are no "perfect" parties in SOA. No matter who you get, you will have some weakness.
My party consists of
Half-orc beserker
Korgan
Viconia
Harr-d
Imoan
Edwin.
My main character is the best tank for soa (bia i know) with korgan chipping in. I have the best two mages in the game in edwin and Imoan with harr d taking a role sometimes.
My weakness is my cleric. I would have prefer viconia would have been of a good aligment so she can destroy the undead instead of temporairy turning them. Also, if she gets in trouble (like she did when I faced the drizzit scum bucket) that can be a problem.
In the end tho, it is up to you. You are the one that makes the shots.
