That sounds like a sweet party. Why the Inquisitor instead of a Cavalier?

Swashbuckler/Mage- now that sounds cool.

In one of my games (Solo Assassin) I've just entered the drow city. Haven't played her in a while.

In another, I'm a solo-mage just whooping the vampire's arse the first time round.

Not using tactics (I could never manage Chateau Irenicus and it always put me off - I know you can't use DBG or skip the installation but where's the fun in that [img]tongue.gif[/img] ) but got the usual, fixpack, ease-of-use, item upgrades, etc.

Alas, nowhere at the moment. I couldn't get BG running with Wine and I'm not going to try again until I get a mouse. After that, I'll probably start yet another new character. Maybe a solo sorcerer or something.

Just finished my solo mage/thief/fighter. Was interesting, but easier near the end, except for avoiding maze and domination spells (and the occasional hold spell). The wands came in handy and so did the later upper level spells.

Strangely enough, I never used time stop! Usually found that whacking and wanding were enough. A lot of web, raise dead, some death fog, and cloud kill wanding usually did the trick. Did use caco fiend and demon raising as well, but sometimes it backfired as even with protection from evil, sometimes my 'raised' fiend attacked me. Oh, and of course pierce magic and breach at times, and the metor showers spell.

I guess it depends on your style. Strangely also, I never used a bow, relying on the throwing ax and fighting up close. Finished with a ton of spells and scrolls. Maybe I should buy that ToB!

I haven't played in ages, but today I will start my first game in a loooooong time. I'm unsure what class I will play yet.

Then I need to go back to BG1 and finish up that fourth trivia...

My character just traveled to Icewind Dale, hearing rumors of waiting riches for any adventurer willing to brave the harsh north, (nerd) and being a rogue, he follows the money. (more nerdness)

No kidding--I'm about to restart my old Generic Archer->Druid; I'm hoping to Dual at Level 18 or so, both because I like late Duals and because the rest of the party will be advanced enough to cover for me while I'm basically helpless.

hehe, speaking of late duals, I like REALLY late duals. Such as, a 49/50 Wizard Slayer/Theif and a 49/50 Assassin/Mage. Naturally, these are both solo runs (with tactics/extreme difficulty). I play these as challenges more than a power class, as once you attain your old skills again you cannot progress futher.

It is completely pointless, but I enjoy doing it .
