sorcerers are also fun to solo, but don't try it until you are VERY familiar with all of the spells. one bad pick will ruin your whole game. don't follow any Solo Sorcerer guides for spell picks, since you are the one who is going to use it. For instance, i picked Project Image, but only used it once. I found out that kills scored by the image don't get you XP! that was a bad choice, and it was too late to stop it.
As for "doubling," i find it ok to take Yoshi along for the Mae'var quests, and to make tons of money off Gorch. I take Valygar along for the Planar Sphere, Mazzy along for the Shade Lord, Cernd for Trademeet, and Imoen throughout Irenicus' dungeon. I use their skills, since it would be an insult to them not to. Still, my solo Dwarven Barbarian made 90% of the kills even when i had both Valygar and Mazzy in my party in the Temple of Amaunator. As long as you don't keep them around forever and don't exploit them, it's fine.
