I still think you can easily get by with just one Cleric or Druid. Personally I'd replace Viconia with Minsc, but I'm sure that party is quite capable as well [img]smile.gif[/img]

I agree with Rataxes - the sheer number of healing potions that comes with the Improved Random Encounters makes having a Cleric for healing purposes even more useless than it was before.

Mages and fighter types, who ruled BG2 before this mod, are now even more dominant. Having a Druid is still a good idea - if only for the summons, insect spells and the ever-cheesy Nature's Beauty.

I can give you some suggestions for parties (although i'm not familiar with the various TDD kits), but you'll need to give me more info. How many members? Good aligned? Evil aligned? Balanced? Give some basic guidelines and i'll see if i can come up with something. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I was thinking about balanced party.Members=probably 4-5 maybe 6.Please Help!!

Hmmmm... Assuming you have ToB, here is a party i 'built' for SpongeBobTheDestroyer about a month ago in the ToB forum:

Protagonist, a Ranger/Cleric (Multiclass)
Solaufein - a Fighter/Mage (Multiclass)
Bilbo, a Halfling Fighter/Thief (Multiclass)
Magna, an Elven Sorceress
Taurus, a Human Monk
6th slot for your favorite NPC.

Plenty of bashing force? Check. [img]graemlins/check.gif[/img]
Druidic spells? Check. [img]graemlins/check.gif[/img]
Clerical coverage? Check. [img]graemlins/check.gif[/img]
Arcane master? Check. [img]graemlins/check.gif[/img]
Required thievery skills? Check. [img]graemlins/check.gif[/img]
A space for your favorite NPC? Check. [img]graemlins/check.gif[/img]
Style? Check. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]
What do you think?
Do you want a weapons setup, too?

I would appriciate.

Alson · 01-02-2003, 03:00 AM

One question - do you have the Item Upgrade mod?

Xen · 01-02-2003, 09:59 AM

Yes i have

Alson · 01-02-2003, 11:23 AM

Well... How about:

Ranger/Cleric - dual wield Flail of Ages +3 and Fulcrum +4. Don't let the lack of shield prevent you from tanking - Ironskins are mighty.
Fighter/Mage - dual wield Celstial Fury +3/+5 and Sanchuudoku +4. Again, you can easily tank with him while Stoneskinned. PfMW will also serve you well.
Fighter/Thief - dual wield Quietus +4 and Kundane +2. Backstab repeatedly.

The Sorcerer and the Monk don't need weapons - they hold their power in their mind and fists respectively. [img]smile.gif[/img]
What do you think?

Xen · 01-02-2003, 01:12 PM

Good idea(s).I have soloed with a F/T before-quite cheesy.I made a Sorcerer.But i´ve read that Ranger/Cleric is VERY Powerful.Any more ideas?
