used this class? He is a useful spellcaster, and can use a lot of weapons, but not wear armour. His harping is also pretty useful, even in first dungeon. Any difficulties using a Skald that it would be useful to know?
Thanks. ------------------ Smile! Life is too short for bitching!  Fljotsdale |

Skalds are Bards 250, Bards don't have backstab ability!
I have used the Skald clas and they are very good, best stratagy is to have him/her cast spells while you tanks wade in, then either use a missile weapon or sing you battle song. ------------------  My website http://hesperex.8k.com Hesperex Freth: 1st son of Matron Mother Shi'nayne Freth, 1st house of Ched'Nesad.

Love my Skald pc! Can do a bit of everything and she isn't too bad a spellcaster. A plus for using the Skald: adds +1 to Hit and Damage.
Bardsong is great! Gives combat bonuses to allies and morale and luck are higher. (how much is supposed to depend on level of the bard). The drawback is that the Skald's pickpocket skills are weak. Not much of a drawback to me! Cloudbringer ------------------  Storm-Queen StormCloud of the Black Knight |

Both are excellent. And the skald can wear elven chain (if you're lucky enough to find a suit). ------------------  My name is Memnoch. And your name is...destined to be a footnote in the sands of time.

 Charlie: The only elven chain in BG2 that I know of is the one in (Spoiler Alert) > > > > > > > The Planar Prison (Haer Dalis rescue quest). I'm fairly sure we have it now, but don't quote me on that...I'll check next time we meet up with turbo Cloudbringer ------------------ Storm-Queen StormCloud of the Black Knight [This message has been edited by Cloudbringer (edited 04-02-2001).] |
