I hurts me how many people shun one of the best characters in the game....
Xzar!! C'mon, this guy is freaking hilarious!! I think Necromancers are tied for the best specialist mage there is (along with Conjurers), and this guy has a great personality. He's funny in that Hannibal Lector sort of sick way... oh well, I know most people won't agree with me, but there it is.

looking at BG 2, I'm now playing a druid, and to goalong with the story, there's Imoen, Jaheira, Khalid, Minsc and Dynaheir. It does seem to make sense, somehow.

SPOILER(?) Re Xzar: he, like Jaheira or Edwin, trigger some special actions in the story.

Personally I use:-

Me (Mage)
Dynaheir
Imoen
Branwen
Jaheira
Khalid

Not only are these characters a good mix but none of them have annoying hidden agendas they have to attend to so they won't wander off or attack you!
Sorry for my bitterness but i had a bad experience with Minsc!

OK, Me(cleric-get a good roll and be tough with a Hammer)
Ajantis(main weapon -bow)
Imoen(bow)
Minsc(main weapon -bow)
Dynaheir(sling+longtooth)
Kivan(main weapon-bow).
I like to use Bows in my party-theyre all dead before they reach you.

Dark side of the Sword coastto whet your appetites!)

Me (paladin)-main weapon-bow)
Ajantis(Holy bow of Sukien)
Imoen(bow) - leave Bardo,he's a pain (and slow).
Dynaheir(sacrifice Minsc)
Jet'laya (cleric)-cool anti-undead gear.
Conchobhair(paladin)-BIG sword.
Theres lots of undead in DSotSC so my party reflects that.
GO ON ....TRY IT!

I agree Penguin Boy, Xzar is indeed hilarious, he has some of the best dialogue in the game!

Where were Hamlet and Horatio when I needed them?

Getting a late start on these BG1 threads

My favorite party had to be
Me (fighter/thief)
Imoen
Xar(sp)
Minsc
Jaheira
Edwin
However, I switched NPC's so often that I really never had a true "favorite" party. Really only the party that would get the job done at the moment!

When I first played BG1 I had no idea that I could just dump Imoen...I felt sooo guilty when I finally decided to ditch Khalid (he died all the time but I never let him leave out of compassion )
This is why I often wound up with:
Me (cleric or ranger)
Immy
Minsc
Dynaheir
Jaheira
Khalid

However, I'm thinking of going back to the good old BG1 days again and explore other options....like an evil party whoohooo!
BTW All Xzar lovers, check the sig

Moggl? What say you on IWD and the coming NWN?
Adhrael is now Ertai and there are clans. Things change, apparently.

ajantis
jahera
quayle
branwen
xan

makes for interesting party dynamics
