Currently taking my first run through IWDII in about a year (computer troubles)

Current Party:

Larathen
Tiefling Rouge(2)/Wizard (1)
Str 12
Dex 18 (19 due to an item)
Con 12
Int 14
Wis 10
Cha 12

Used as: diplomat, trap disarmer and chest unlocker, backup mage

Zerg the Untouchable (nearly untouchable is more like it >.>)
Drow Monk (3)
Str 14
Dex 20
Con 14
Int 9
Wis 18
Cha 5

Used as: Main tank

Tylon
Assimar Paladin of Mystra (1)/Wizard (2)
Str 14
Dex 16
Con 14
Int 15
Wis 5 (I know I'll regret that)
Cha 14

Used as: Minor tank, backup mage

Tatiana
Human Stormlord of Talos (4)
Str 16
Dex 12
Con 18
Int (i forgot again ^^; )
Wis 18
Cha 3

Used as: Healer, minor tank

Pikel
Gold Dwarf Druid (4)
Str 14
Dex 16
Con 16
Int 8
Wis 18
Cha 3

Used as: backup healer, secondary tank (has a point in axes), a bit of offensive magic as well

Varn
Human Wizard (4)
Str 12
Dex 18
Con 14
Int 19
Wis 10
Cha 4

Used as: bombardier, sniper

Party managed to take Targos by storm, goblins are easy pickings for this group (they can't even touch the monk), the battle in the Palisade was the first time the monk was even hit. Orcs prove to be much tougher opponents, being able to reliably hit my monk, they require a veritable blasting by my mages (all 3 have magic missile) to take down. Currently awaiting my cleric and druid's next level up to gain access to the spell Call Lightning and the Talos Cleric's domain spell Lightning Bolt. Then the fun shall really begin

Zerg? hehe
Pikel? I just started on book one of that. Good is it?
Anyways, party looks good, if somewhat minmaxed, but otherwise ok. I've got this urge to start a Bard+Wizard+4xSorcerer party. That might be fun

I believe it. 3 charisma would look pretty good on some of those guys

Good party all around, though remember that a mage must have an INT of 10+ spell level to cast spells of that level, so your two backup mages will need to gain INT by some means (leveling, items, etc.). Ideally, if you want an absolute untouchable monk, deep gnomes are the best choice, but a drow will work almost as well, along with being much cooler (whenever I take a gnome, I wind up with a name like "Igglesniff")

Good luck!

Aye, I didn't minmax nearly as much as other times.
Yeah, the two backup mages will be gaining INT as time goes on >.>

Currently at the Horde Fortress, the druid, wizard, and Stormlord are all level 5, so I have lightning bolt from both cleric and wizard, and 2 call lightnings from the druid Currently the Stormlord has the most hitpoints at 51, and the Rouge/Wizard having the least. I think that now I'll start having a blast with this party

Marty, you actually give your party names???

In case you havent noticed, cool names dont improve any abilities at all. Calling them "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6" would suffice.

I believe it. HoF should be a breeze for these guys with all the mass damage.
