I think that it might be interesting to have a debate about which class you would prefer to be and why; if you could really be that class in real life.We can also compare how one class would fair againist another in a one on one battle without prep time.


Cleric vs Bard
FMC vS RC
Thief vs Bard
FMT ...

[QUOTE=Berethor]Actually, I like the Idea of Wild Mage. I have a problem with the fighter/mage/cleric. Maybe try something like a berserker-->ceric or mage or kensai-->mage.

like Amran said, you're gonna get your ass handed to you if you try to play that party.[/QUOTE]


I am going to disagree with ...

I have voted for the mage because they have a load of abilties that make them rather hard to defeat.With one spell a mage can seriously weaken an entire party and then pick them off one at time.Againist a solo opponent they can easily pick them apart since they can quick rasie defenses and at higher ...

[QUOTE=Deadalready]By removing magical properties from the battles I think you're totally overpowering the mage, without items or decent items I fail to see how either a rogue or fighter can counter Protection from Magical Weapons. Without having access to elemental damage either neither the rogue ...

[QUOTE=Sononara]I think in this thread, thiefs are being vastly over rated. Fighters, being vastly under rated.

What if a fighter was wearing ring of invisibilty? or boots of speed, or some of other enhancing item. Fighters can use items to you know.[/QUOTE]

Sononara You are so right.People keep ...

I would remove all magically item besides the weapon and armors.The weapons and armors would just be simple +3 items.Nothing that would give any extra bonus would be fine for a debate like this because it would remove all these annoy factor like this item can counter this or that.



I can really ...

You also need to ask yourself how effective running is going to be in a one on one fight.The mage can summon alot of help and some of which can see invisible creatures then haste them and they won't have a problem keeping up with the thief because they will be just as fast as he is.

The mage can ...

I think that you misunderstood the augment.In this battle we assumed like the characters were intelligent and so mage wouldn't just let the thief run out site not follow him.Have you forgotten about spell trigger which is cast instant.That will kill the thief before he is even about to drink another ...

If you go this quest earlier then you might have a few problems.What I would advice is to wait untill you have at least done 1 or 2 quest and then go and take these guys out.Spells like web and grease do rather good in this battle.Emotion work rather well on most the party besides the mage.The first ...

If you are going to dual Yoshimo then you need to do so very soon after you get him because you need to keep in mind that you will lose him half way in the game and that makes it less appealing to waste time advance up levels to regain his thief skills when he won't even be around long enough to put ...

Before we begin to have fun with this topic we are going to need a few guildline to make this discussion more fun and fair.HLA aren't an issue here because the class won't be at the levels to have gained any.The character max level are those which are allowed by Shadows of Amn without the experience ...

I think that we should just agree to disagree on this because there are items out there that can be used by the thief or mage that can change this whole battle.When I first created this thread I wasn't thinking about items that can be used which can change everything.It just make this discussion so ...

There are items that can defend againist backstab and if the fighter has that on him then he can take down the thief if there aren't any traps set but I agree that the thief can take a down a fighter down with ease with there traps.I didn't know that one spike trap could do that much damage.Then ...

The thief is no longer hidden when he backstabs and that mean he can be hit with a spell then like power word stun.This a quick cast spell and I used it on thieves the second that they backstab and it has never failed me once.The mage has alot of resource that would just outlast the thief in the ...

There is no such thing as the worse class to me.There are just those classes that I can do without playing however the cleric isn't one of them.The cleric is a class that is a little harder to play for some people since the most of there spells are defensive and don't outright wreck and entire party ...

What good is stone skin and haste going to do when the thief can't touch mage.The mage is going to get up his defense first which mean that thief won't be able to touch him so he can backstab away and while the thief is doing that the mage just needs to get off one good spell and that pretty much ...

This thread was meant to deal the power levels of theives and warriors in TOB so that means that all class are at pretty high levels and the class really don't improve that much this game and that is a disappointment but they do get high level abililties and those can fun and boring as can be at ...

While I suppose that is a good way of dealing with true sight and stop the mage from being able to detect you but I think that you forgot about the Wish spell.A mage with enough wisdom can cast spell and that is that.This spell can be very deadly and there no defense againist it besides to stop the ...

A well prepared mage can just about defeat any class despite what items that they have on them.If the mage is able to get off time stop then that pretty much sum everything up right there because they can remove any defenses that there enemy has and then just cast one nasty spell and this fight is ...

Some people give thieves to much credit.While a thief is a powerfully customer even they have limits and can be defeated .A class is as powerfully as the player playing game.Some people are better with different class then other and I am better with the fighter because I use then decoys in battle ...
