Which style do you prefer???

Which type of style do you like to play?? As a fighter, magic user, thief, strategic, hack n slash, etc.

I like to play as a Paladin using hack n slash, unless the hard enemies come.

I like to play sleepy style [img]tongue.gif[/img] LOL
But honestly spealing i just like to summon "hordes" of creatures and let them do the dirty h2h work, i just like to pick enemies from a distance with spells. Playing hack and slash for me is only fun in Unreal, when you feel the rush. BG2 is just a smooth game.

Total annihilation with spells.

I prefer melee combat plus protective spells. If it does not pass then I summon powerful allies like Mordekainen Swords, Skeletal Warriors and so on.

Cavalier, bashing with his two-handed sword on any foe in sight is the style for me. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hack n' slash is my type of game. Often with a fighter character or sometimes with a thief, though when playing a thief I let the other ones in the party do all the slashing.

Hello,
when I played BG1/TOSC, it was missles, maybe a spell or two, missles, then maybe melee;
when I played BG2, it was spells (maybe something from Firetooth) and melee, spells and melee, melee, melee;
when I played BG2/TOB, it was spells then melee.

Summoning critters is a good tactic (it's how I beat Sarevok without a scratch to my party), but my higher level warriors were just so effective (dual powerful weapons, special abilities) that summoning anything less than a pit fiend, deva, or palantar was just casuing a delay for the grinding machine to get into action.

Nothing like getting the party juiced-up on the most powerful protection and augmentation spells, and then unleashing them!!!!!!!!!
