the 'house of despana insignia' has been a life saver [img]smile.gif[/img]
casting 'otilukes resilient sphere' and sitting in my warm globe while wizards waste their spells on me or kill their own, then going in for the kill when they are weak...har har

having a hard time settling on a party. this is my learn on the fly party, it's far from perfect.

tiefling bard w/ a few rogue levels -> terrible mistake, ecl + the multi class, really limits this char, she's a good scout and has some nice buff spells, but is not the ideal scout, does fight well w/ a bow. (next go round, human bard no multi before level 11, if at all)

half orc barbarian & ftr -> great pounder up the middle, has some speed and hits really hard, wpns switch from dual short swords, great swords, quater staff, dual maces as situation requires. i love this char, and one like her will be in most of my parties, at first i thought the 1/2 orc was a "weak" class but the high strength 20+ means it's hits very hard. responsible for about 40% of kills.

dwarf druid w/ a little ftr -> not bad, i like the druid spells, but i lose most of the ftr (and con!) benefits when shapechanged, next druid may be a frail asamar w/ high int, wis, cha. tanks as a boar / bear throws hammers in ranged, and casts spike stones an awful lot.

asamar paladin of ill / cleric of ill levels about equal, really a total waste imo. i min maxed this one too much and as a result i have a decent cleric who is 5 or 6 levels behind, and a very poor paladin. poor combat ability + no high level spells yet = total waste, barely 8% of party kills, and has been ressurected way too often. next time this may be either a take one level of paladin -> cleric / or i may scrap the whole idea and go w/ a monk instead, or a ftr 4 / pal and just worry about combat tanking.

gnome, illusionist w/ a little bit of thief, he's the trap and lock guy + backup mage, i miss having a full time thief but have dual fireballers is pretty nice too. fights well w/ bow. the slower advancement of the multi actually works in my favour a bit as scrolls that were once too late, are now on time!

wild elf barbarian 2 -> sorc. she makes the whole party work, a decent mix of attack spells w/ some defense and the ability to cast on the fly. incredible, when not roasting enemies she uses a bow rather well, also known to throw hammers. only slight flaw too much focus on flame type spells, burning hands, scorcher, fireball, flame arrow ect ect. i should of diversified damage types better, and avoided "direct beam" type spells (as i always seem to roast 2-3 party members w/ them.) i wanted a "fire" type mage, spirit of flame ect ect, but i think i focused too much.

My Second Party:

Half-orc Barbarian/Fighter:
Primary weapon is a greatsword. Is responsible for about 35% of the party's kills. My primary tank. Favorite tactic? "Argh!!! Tactics? Me not need no skinkin' tactics!!!"

Aasimar Paladin of Helm:
My #2 tank. Currently his primary weapon is the +4 Ice Spear. Is responsible for about 20% of the party's kills.

Dwarven Battleguard of Tempus:
first backup tank. Primary weapons split between greataxe and sling. A solid melee contributor.

Human Sorceror:
His primary focus is on Enchantment spells. But overall, he's a solid spellcaster. Primary weapon: crossbow. He's the primary talk for my party. Favorite tactic: against a mob, charm 1 enemy archer and 1 melee-er. This causes nearby enemies to target them and not my party. REALLY changes the tide of a battle.

Elven Wizard:
Her focus is on area effect spells. Primary weapon: Bow.

Strongheart Halfling Rogue/Fighter:
Primary weapon: bow, but will switch to dual-wielding a shortsword & dagger in a heartbeat. She's a surprisingly potent melee fighter. Her shortsword is the Brilliant Short Sword +5 that's the Rank 10 prize from the Battle Squares.

This party is doing some serious monster monster-buttkicking. There seem to be no weaknesses in the group.

[Mr. Mopery]

Aasimar Bard 15 (f)--my raven-haired negotiator, spell-buffer and crossbow wielder with enough cleavage to distract a eunuch

Half-Orc Fighter 12/Barbarian 4 (m)--uber tank with greatswords...damn ugly, but not as dumb as he looks

Tiefling Monk 15 (m)--super dex, moderate strength...not a hard hitter (or a terribly effective hitter), but he's kind of like my team mascot

Shield Dwarf Cleric of Tempus 16 (m)--master of the healing touch and tertiary tank with an electric throwing axe

Human Rogue 12/Fighter 4 (f)--shifty, skulduggerous and bow-friendly

Elven Wizard 15/Fighter 1 (m)--dextrous and acid obsessed...he tries to wear armour like the big boys, but it's too heavy for him

[Helmsley]

Here's my little addition to the IWD2 world.

Drow Ranger (yep, my own little Drizzt)
Half-elf Paladin of Helm
Aasimar Morninglord of Lathander
Svirfneblin Wizard
Human Bard
Strongheart Rogue

Finding some of the fights a little difficult, though. Probably sub-raced when I shouldn't have (that 3 level adjustment on my mage stinks; he can only remember like four spells with an 18 Int). I'll know better next time I guess. LOL

[Gregory Longshanks]

Human - Fighter
Moon-Elf - Ranger
Moon-Elf - Paladin of Mystra
Drow-Elf - Rogue
Drow-Elf - Evoker
Moon-Elf - Silverstar of Selune

So far so good.

[Methenaus]

Aisimar fighter14/1barbarian doesn't seem to do much, dies alot more than my barbarian but manages around 30% of the kills, 14f/1barb
MY barbarian is my star tank with at least 135k experiance worth of kills lvl15 barb
My i thin Asimar cleric was not extremly useful until raise dead and some buffer spells i think 15 lvl
My hafling thief has a low amount o fkills but is extremely useful i think 15 thief
i love mages the most and i am even considering droping a character and express level a new mage, anyway
14lvl drow wizard who i am considering my main guy has at least as much e.p. worht killed and % as my fighter
and finally
15 lvl wizard who i started at about chapter 2 because my original one was a deep rock gnome and he died so i just made a new one because it was more convieniant than going and getting him raised, i seemed to do that a lot in the beginning
