Galuf,

Were you aware that weapon finesse only applies when using a small bladed weapon with one hand? If you are going to dual-wield, weapon finesse is no good for you. I would lower Fenris' Int and put a few points in strength and give him 1 level of Ranger to dual wield. If you want to use ...

I agree with everyone else. If you have a monk and sorc, cleric would be the best option with a rogue/ fighter type being second. With a small party, summoning becomes very important. Cleric spell animate dead is great. It lasts forever and at higher levels you get some pretty powerful allies. If I ...

I guess I am at a little bit of a disadvantage, having not played HoF mode. I do know what items are available but that is it. I might start playing it, get my butt kicked and have to go back to the drawing board.

I picked my party to take advantage of the game I was playing and with an eye on the ...

Krysalyn,

Thanks for your input.

The reason I started this thread was to create a lively discussion over creating powerful and well balanced 4 person parties. So here goes:

Back to the original subject, does anyone have any good 4 person parties? The key is to have characters that are versatile but I have learned that you do ...

Good points about the Monk 1/Ranger X/DMoM X character.

However, correct me if I am wrong but as long as the Ranger and Cleric are not more than 2 levels apart, there is no XP penalty (with a human or 1/2 elf of course).

You do raise a good point about Ranger spells, not much benefit there. From ...

Thanks for the reply.

I don't have any more parties at this time but I will say this:

If you have a cleric, the only deity to worship is Mask. I used to like Talos (and still do) because of the Death Armor spell and you have a cool Thor-like character. However, Mask gives the best bonus spells ...

After playing the game for a while, I have come up with the ultimate party.

I always play with 4 (more experience and more efficient). Here is the lineup:

Dwarf Barbarian
*wields hammer or morning star and shield
*wears heavy armor
*tons of hit points, damage resistance

Human Fighter/Thief ...
