So what class should i play at? Last time i played as a Ranger and found myself not using the "hide, animal empathy" skills because they were too useless. So...Although the Ranger has always been my ideal class, i wont use one this time round. I was wondering which you thought would be a good class.

Maybe Paladin i thought, but then you only get 1 henchman. Then i thought solo as Fighter/Mage/Thief, but then i though, no. I'd get killed at every battle.

So?

how about go plain fighter or barbarian and take sharwyn? shes cool.

or a cleric or wizard scorceror with daelan?

it depends on your taste really, rogues are fun with the sneak attacks, but again, their hide skills are useless when you have a big half orc stomping about with you.

you could always go solo

rangers aren't really that bad, dual wield, etc which lets you spend feats buffing your achery up, blah..

And with SoU the ranger will be very good. But for the main NWN I would go for a monk. They rule. As long as you don't take Tomi.

Yuck... Tomi.... he ruins the game Can't you delete his sound?

If you wan't an extra helper, you can choose Cleric - Shadow Domain as well. It gives you the power of summonig a shadow!!!!
Wizards and sorcerers -> Familiar
Druid have animal companions too. I like their shapshifting. And if you can't choose, play it multiple times. I created 6 chars and completed 2 and a half

aye, my character that I've got is a straight forward fighter, doesn't exactly take any huge skill to play with but it can be fun to just charge in and bash everything to death I do have another character i just started with as a wizard, quite good to possess your familiar and go 'check the layout'

Only used the pixie as a familiar when I played as a wizard. A silent henchman rogue.... perfect!

I've never actually finished NWN - due to a bug, and my 'puter throwing a paddy. I got furthest with a mage (pixie familiar ) and a bard.

you still not had any luck sorting that out?

Haven't bothered. I might replay on my new pc now though.

Perhaps a Paladin? What do you think? I could be specialised in Charisma and being a leader as well as being a Kick ass fighter.

the paladin is actually a damn good character, increased saves, immunity to disease and fear (very useful), lay on hands, cure disease, turn undead (again, very useful), and later on you get some nice buff spells.

first character i finished the game with in fact.

a paladin/cleric is very powerfull.

Paladin it is then...Thanks Tyranus!

may i suggest focus with greatsword? if not, make sure you keep a x3 criticle weapon with you (great axe, battle axe, etc), because along with a decent strength and improved power attack NO chest, etc will be a problem.

also any weapon you focus will be in the chest behind you at start up. useful for picking up rare weapons.

But who should i team up with?

With a paladin you can try solo. Otherwise maybe Bodyknock.
