Looking for some advice. Options

[gamble55]

I'd first like to say I'm so very impressed with the amount of work that has gone into this mod. I've been waiting for version 5 to finally give it a try and I've just finished the download.

I'm just looking for a little advice before I get started.

I'm a little unsure about what class I should play. Right now I'm leaning toward a Ranger/Cleric, Fighter/Thief or a Cleric/Thief. I'd like to try the expanded Ranger stronghold quests so that's one of the reasons I'm thinking R/C. Do you guys have any advice about these classes other suggestions for a new player?

Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the advice. The Vagrant does seem like an interesting class so I think I will take your advice. My plan for my party is:

Vagrant
Keldorn
Valygar (Maybe Korgan)
Aerie
Cernd
Nalia


I'm going to be starting this up tomorrow so if anyone has any advice on how to improve the party please let me know.

I think that looks fine. I personally wouldn't take Anomen over Cernd, but that's because I like the Auramaster kit. Having Keldorn in the party is a bit of a double-edged sword: on the one hand he is a powerful character who can eventually use the Holy Avenger sword. On the other you'll find he gets turned a lot by enemy clerics... but certainly I'd still take him in the party.
