bg1 to tob half-solo

[Xan deVir]

I'm gonna create a character and take him from bg1 to tob, he's gonna be chaotic good and he'll travel with imoen - a half-solo game(in bg2 they will lvl slow as there are 6 ppl in the party - thanx Sabre for helping me to edit the right file) . so I just wanted to hear your opinions and suggestions... should I make a thief turn him into an assassin in soa and dual to fighter in tob or play as a fighter/thief multiclass or play again as a fighter, give him a kensai kit in soa and dual to thief in tob, I have no problem with playing almost the same character again because the strategy for all of them is almost the same anyway but the biggest difference will be my alignment - I'll play as good this time so I'll do many of those quests I havent done as evil and other quests will be done in a different way.

I'll sum up the alternatives like this:

1. thief -> assassin -> fighter
2. fighter -> kensai -> thief
3. fighter/thief multiclass

the first one will be difficult to play in bg1 easier in soa and hard again after the dualing in tob (so maybe Quitch will finish his imoen relationship project by the time I finish bg1 cuz it will take me years to finish it /w a 2 thieves party), the second is prolly ez in bg1 and kinda hard afterwards and the last one is not challenging enough in my opinion.

Don't forget Algernon's Cloak in BG1 - it can help you with some tough battles. If you're playing with Imoen, consider dualing her to mage.

So I'm going for an assassin, sure I'll get the cloak but I'm gonna wait till bg2 where imoen is already dualed to mage.
