Man have you ever tried this? Half orc Kensai 19 str 18 dex 19 con 8 int
12 will 12 char
Hes weilding that +3 2-hander from the sewers beneath slums
He hits like 29's all the time and criticals like 70's only at lvl 9!!!!
Omg this guy is cool.

Wow, sounds good! Are you soloing him or is he in a party? BTW I find Half Orc Barbarians very good as well. Is it just me or does a Half Orc not sound 'natural' for a kensai? They seem a bit too feral for me. Nonetheless, he sounds great and I'll have to try one of those later on!

How did you get those 19's in strength and such? I suppose they're not legit (i.e. using girdles and such) or have you imported him from BG1?

Halforcs get a +1 bonus to strength and constitution
ADD) But a -2 to charisma, IIRC. Or maybe it's just a -1. I don't think Intelligence, Wisdom, and Dexterity are affected.

Machine of Lum the Mad can give +1 to strength and cons too. Get in, get the boost and carry on. Furthermore a lucky draw on the DoMT can give +1 to strength. I think the highest natural strength must be 23.
18+1(BG1 or ½Orc)+1(Lum)+1(Deck)+2(Tear) = 23

mad=dog, i think the tear also gives (on top of the +2 strength) +1 to your primary stat. If that is correct that would mean 24str for a kensai.

Although if this kensai is at level 9, he's unlikely to be anywhere near the Machine of Lum the Mad or the tears.

All of his stats are legit and possible, due to the Half-Orc bonus...

I did start a half-orc kensai the other night, in fact. Stats are pretty much the same, except I put more in cha and less in wis and int. But I have him dual-wielding katanas. Most combat scenes look a lot like a frog being dropped into a blender, though with the bigger monsters, the frog is dropped in feet first, giving you time to watch it's expression. It's rather cheesy, I think, but it's so much fun!

My human Kenasi has the similar stats in the beginning of SoA (though I let him have higher INT and WIS, and lower CHAR because I dualed him to Mage later). I started the game from BG1 (playing BGT) and so he got to have 19 in ST, DEX, and CON.
If started from BG1, WoodyG666's half-orc Kensai could have 20 ST, 19 DEX, 20 CON, 9 INT, 14 WIS, and 13 CHAR in the beginning of SoA [img]tongue.gif[/img]

however, if with latest version of Tactics mod installed, our Kenasis would look quite pathetic in Irenicus Dungeon because of the high AC and that firestorm casting Fallen Deva
