good fighter.

[mrxian]

i have a good party, consisting of
me - cavalier - greatsword, throwing axe, quarterstaff.
minsc - dual wielding axes and maces
aerie - flail o/t ages, sling
mazzie fentan - shortbow,greatsword
yoshimo - shortbow, longsword
jaheira - club, scimitar, sling

i've done about all quests there are to do before going to rescue imoen, and i wanted to replace jaheira with someone before going. i want a good fighter-type character, but i'm not sure as who to take.

anybody have any advice?

If you want another Druid to replace Jahera choose cernd, he is at the trademeet (Trademeet quest).

Yoshimo is traitor that dies later, but i think you can restore him to life.
if you want to replace yoshimo use jan he is a good gnome, he can be found at the Governement District...

hmmm, cernd.... not a bad idea.
the only problem is that he is a crappy fighter (AC -1, come on!)

yoshi will be replaced by imoen, and i don't think you can raise him.

what´s wrong about sir keldorn firecam?
sure, you already have a paladin... but his inquisitor abilities can come in very handy in all sorts of what would otherwise be messy situations.
incidentally, unless you personally hate her, i would stick with jaheira; imo she is one of the most useful characters in the game: especially dual-wielding gnasher and belm, she can deal an impressive amount of damage while being protected by iron skins (imo she is a considerably better fighter in human form than cernd is as a werewolf), she isn´t really noticably behind cernd in terms of spells and you don´t have the hassle of switching between those forms.

Well imo either take Keldorn or Valygar. Keldorn is an inquisitor wich means he has very handy special abilities; e.g. true sight and (a very powerful) dispel magic. But since you already have a palladin I think I would go for Valygar the Stalker. Have him dual wield the Celestial Fury and the Belm or his own family sword and you have a very powerful fast-damage dealing backup fighter to your cavalier.

But then again; it's your choice [img]smile.gif[/img]

Have fun,

I'd take Anomen - he seems perfect for the job. He's a decent fighter, plus he has the healing/clerical spells to back up Aerie.

Spoiler
Maybe you should use Jan Jansen a little bit later in the game you can the Staff of the Woodlands that gives a -4AC

healing spells?
among minsc (ranger spells),me (paladin spellshealing hands), mazzie(healing hands twice on herself/day), aerie and two rings of regeneration, i have all the healing i'll ever need.

I'd dump Mazzy for Keldorn.
