I played and loved the Monk. Twice. Then I moved on to other classes.
Dragon, make sure you read the manual though. Give it a skim at least. I didn't and picked an NPC portrait that compromised the roleplay aspect. Another hint: watch out for spoilers on the board. We're pretty careful here, but don't go busting into any old topic, because a lot of us have finished the game. You are more than welcome here though. Check out the Gen discussions forum too. ------------------ FAIR DINKUM! |

Maybe, like myself and probably many others, you'll play through the first chapter(or two)and start again with a different class.....and then maybe you'll start again after that,because unless you try them out you'll never know for sure.
Right now im playing a multiclass fighter/mage/thief and although im enjoying it immensly,its tough because any experience i gain is shared equally between those three classes(as if they were three separate characters).Its tough because i'd like to be a level 12 mage before i enter chapter 3,so i'm having to keep the number of characters in my group to a minimum so experience is shared amongst the group and i still get to level up sometimes. Anyway,...just a warning there. But i suggest reading the manual and message boards to get some sort of picture and then some in-game trial and error. Hope you enjoy the game,and welcome to this forum! ------------------ "And remember what i told you....Walk with rage against those who threaten the great Mother!". |

Yes, read the manual to get some insight on all classes, besides there is no absolute 'best' class, each has its good and bad sides. Do you play any PnP game ?

Paladin; Cavalier, is great against undeads.
Sorcery: freedom of move, use indiscriminate of spell. Kensai/mage: Faster attack, power ofensive magic. Cleric/thief: Good combination. Fighter/cleric/mage: Better combination (weak at begin, but after...). Fighter/mage/thief: Good combination (" " "). Baldurian: Cheat..... OK, illegal, andddd!!!!! ------------------ When The world of the deads comes, we will already be there. |

yes, depends on how you play it etc. Here are my favourites:
Kensai/Thief - fast kills, great fighter and thief Fighter/Mage/Thief - great combination (strong throughout the game, good for soloing) Ranger/Cleric - good fighter, good cleric with druid spells added to that Kensai/Mage - really offensive Fighter/Mage - gotta be human and put 5 stars in short bow. Undead hunter - I like the immunity to level drain Bounty hunter - I like the traps, especially when you can maze Archer - Damn good archer, this is IMHO the best ranger I haven't tried the monk and some other classes. These are my favourites. |
