Nalia, Keldron, or Amoen? - Page 2

Vanyel · 08-15-2001, 09:04 PM

So who should I place in my party out of ALL the NPC's? Read above to see my current party. I'd like to find another mage-type. I know how good Edwin is, never used Jan or the Drow lady much. And before the Slayer how can I lower my rep?

You could always try out the option of regularly swapping party members. It means that the groups overall level advances slowly but keeps things fun, as you can try various combinations to spice up party dialogue and complete more of the NPC quests.

Anomen all the way. He can hang tough in most any melee fight and is a sweet cleric once he gets knighted. Personally I would take anomen and replace aerie with edwin if possible. you won't need aerie,anomen and jaheria but I would rate aerie lowest of the 3 by a good margin so I say she should get the boot hehe.
I was always down on anomen cuz of his attitude and low wisdom before too but after playing all the way through with him I am amazed at how much butt he kicks! With good eq he wails in combat and he is a summoning machine to boot!

Nalia... no full time mage will spell DOOM earlier.
Keldorn is definitely not needed! You are a paladin that can whip through Vamps.

I'd say Keldorn is essential!! Not so much for his fighting abilites, but for his true sight & dispel magic (which he casts at *twice* his level, btw). Many a mage has been made minced meat (or should that be minced mage

) by:
a) Keldorn casting dispel magic;
b) My kensai (w/boots of speed & Celestial Fury) running up to said mage & hacking away;
c) Chop! Hack! Slash! Chunks of one mage fly about...

I think the best party is definately-
You
Keldorn
Anomen
Jaheira
Aerie
Yoshimo (untill you rescue Imoen then dump him and take Imoen).
The reason being, Minsc will die at the drop of a hat and Nalia is too slow to gain experience.
Whatever you do always have Anomen, he is my favourite charecter bi a mile. Just equip him with a good shield and the flail of ages. His cleric spells rock as well.
