The more I read about IA, the less I seem to understand.
Minsc as Kensai, Edwin as Wild Mage, and a bunch of others that leave me wondering...

Does IA change those characters, does everyone use ShadowKeeper or some such (I admit I do, but usually only for visuals such as colours and different avatars, and the occassional alignment change), or are multiplayer games with powerful custom characters necessary?

No, the only change IA applies to the NPCs classes is changing Imoen to a sorceress.

Some players use SK to change the NPCs classes or kits. However, I don't recommend it. If you need an NPC with a certain class or kit, I recommend to make a custom NPC rather than tampering with the game's existent NPCs.

No, but they are fun and they can also help players to cutomize their parties in a way that they want. As I said, creating multi-player custom NPCs is much safer than tampering with the existent NPCs via SK.

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.

Mhm... doesn't IA change Cernd into an auramaster when it adds the kit to the selection?
