Here I am, back for another round of punishment and self abuse. Anyway, my planned party (all created) is
Vagrant (flails as main weapon, axe or belm in offhand) Sorcerer Wizard (what would be a good specialist class for this character?) Berserker (main tank, using shield with longsword/1 handed crushing weapon. All AC boosting items go to him) Ranger/cleric Cleric Question, is the pureclass cleric really necessary? I choose her in anticipation of all the healing I'm going to need, but it would be great if I could throw in some melee capabilities as well. 2nd, I've been browsing the threads, and I notice the once popular f/m multi class does not have a place in many parties. What happened? Are they nerfed or something? TIA for feedback! |

I choose her in anticipation of all the healing I'm going to need, but it would be great if I could throw in some melee capabilities as well. Probably not 100% necessary, but I still recommend it. You won't have access to "Greater Restoration" soon enough if all of your clerics are multi-class. QUOTE Wizard (what would be a good specialist class for this character?) QUOTE 2nd, I've been browsing the threads, and I notice the once popular f/m multi class does not have a place in many parties. What happened? Are they nerfed or something? They are still powerful but not as powerful as they uded to be. Reasons: (1) They progress slower than before due to the new level progression tables. (2) They gain HLAs much later than in the vanilla. (3) There are certain powerful items which are only usable by single class mages and/or single class warriors. Hence, an F/M can't use any of them.

 Cheating is not confined to using external software or the console commands. Abusing the flaws and limitations of the game engine to do something that a human Dungeon Master would not accept or allow is cheating. |
