About Eastern themed parties, try adding a Kensai or two and dual classing them to mages if you're lacking in magic. Its a cool idea IMHO.
About bards, I personally have never used a bard except in BG1, but that doesnt count since I had no idea what the differences between the different classes were ------------------ Why? |

I definately agree with you. I have played this game 3+ 0.4 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 times myself. Definately replaying value. I am thinking of starting a new game myself, (read my own topic).
Another thing, please explain to me what is so good about the bard, because I think it is the worst possible class I have ever played (kits included). It is quite frustrating to have someone so useless in my party. |

Rikard, what you're referring to as "natural magic" is called Qi(or Ki, Chi depending on what language you're using), and everyone has it, but not many people actually use it or even believe they have it. It is life energy, it's used in many Martial Arts, some examples are Aikido, Taiji Quan(or Tai Chi) and Bagua. It can be used in any Martial Art though and almost all serious Martial Artists learn how to use it.
Anyway, thanks for your suggestions, I was thinking Fighter/Assassin is more of a Ninja too . I think I'll go with 2 Monks, a Fighter/Assassin, Kensai/Mage and Sorceror. I would just leave the Kensai a regular Kensai, but you don't get enough utility and "just in case" spells with just the Sorc. |

The question you have to ask yourself is, How flexible is your party? Do you think you can adapt to nearly any situation?

kensai/mage is nonsense, pure powergaming, it doesnt make sense at all, ohh, genius, you are good at both martial art and magic art, whatever.
all asian party? cooooool! but Kara-tur is not famous for mages, residents there most rely on "ki" that is what monks use. they developed first non-magical way of levitation. heh, asia! anyway, i would recomand, a monk, a thief, a nin-ja(assasin), a bounty hunter, and a kensai. no cleric, no mage, asia's tales dont includ them |
