Too many Mages. Any Good Fighters?

Sansovino · 03-22-2001, 05:53 AM

In BG 1 I think there was a lack of a good mage. So in BG2 I decided to be a mage. I'm only in Chapter two and Minsc is the only real fighter I have got. Can any body direct me to one who is not of evil alignment.

I want to get Nalia and do her quest but it would mean having to drop Aerie. D'ya think I should? It's just that I have too many non-fighters so it's one or the other.

Aerie is more powerful than Nalia, but Nalia's helpful in her quest. You can always drop Aerie, do the quest and then recollect her.

Nalia will get kidnapped if you keep her in your party, so she isn't a long term option. Keldorn in the Sewers is one of the better fighters in the game, has a good sword and decent armour.

Valygar is a pretty good fighter too. He can dual wield katanas - Celestial Fury and Daystar are a lethal combination!

Based on body counts from my previous runs the best killing machines are....

#1
Korgan -Evil

Near Tie

#2Keldorn-Good
#2 Mazzy-Good

#3 Minsc-Good

All of the above are good. Mazzy is probably the most underrated.

After this group the best in melee is probably the "git" Anomen followed by Jaheria.

have you realized ?? The evil fighter is a fighter class, and the good fighters are paladins or rangers. I think they should have added a good aligned fighter...

You do get her back if you complete her last quest.

if you fully complete a rather long quest then yes

You can get Anomen,I never tried him,but he might be a good fighter.

Give Mazzy the Gesen Bow and she is AWSOME.
But Keldorn is probably the best choice due to his dispell magic abilitie.

Get Korgan and dual wield him with Stonefire and Frostreaver, or substitute either with Crom Faeyr....then get ready to hear: "Me axe be bloody already!!"

But for good aligned parties, I would recommend Valygar, Minsc and/or Keldorn. But they all need to be equiped properly in order to be most effective.
