I've just started a new SoA game, with ToB installed a few days ago. Iv'e been thinking about the party I want, and iv'e decided it will be made of:
Artemis, an elven fighter/mage (multi), profs in dual wield, long bows+swords, later in katana.
Minsc, will SK him to a swashbuckler, then dual him to a cleric at level 10 (no flaming plzz). Profs in dual wield, flails, maces, slings.
Korgan, well, you know. Dual some axes (I've downloaded a HUGE pack of items from IWD - some really cool axes there!!!!). no ranged ability.
Jaheira, changed her profs to 2H weapon style, and use spears and QS, sling for ranged. Also a romance.
Edwin. Too cool to leave behind. Will not fight with minsc because TOB installed.
HearDalis, I just love this guy. Will change his profs to 2H weapon style, 2 handed sword (probably Carsomyr after use any item), and halbreds, Xbow for ranged.
I really like this party, all funny chars (well, except jaheira, but she is my girl [img]tongue.gif[/img] , pretty strong party, but my question is:
How would you USE this party in combat? What tactics, strategies, and the like??
For example, my tactic is:
Artemis and Hear are always loaded with (minor) sequencers with defensive spells (blur, mirror image..) and contigencies (sp?), and ALWAYS stoneskined. They both cast a quick spell from behind, then rush into combat (tensered if it is a boss fight).
If korgan is far, hear is going into defensive spin and he is a REAL tank that way.
If korgan is close, than hear activates offensive spin and starts beating up. Meanwhile, minsc is spliting heads with his two flails (he is also buffed up), and jah is summoning and fights from the second line. Of course, edwin casts spells all this time.
So what are your tactics?? Is mine looks fine?? It is a fun one for me...
PS:
How do I use the Cast&Attack tactic for my 'magical' fighters???
