Another problem

Post by robinhood7 »

I just recently started a game with an Inquistidor. Im liking it alot. My only problem is choosing who i want in my party. The NPC's i have to choose from are Minsc, Jaheira, Jan, Nalia, Aerie, Yoshimo, Viconia, and Anomen. I am of good alignment. Please give me your input on what would be a great party. Try to include things like Magic and Missle attacks. Thanx.

Minsc is a definate. Whether you go the route of 2h sword, or better yet dual wield 2 axes. There are some nice +3 axes very early in the game.
Anomen is a great cleric. He can use a sling, though there are some great blunt weapons, dependant upon how much you know i would suggest getting some flail proficiencies.
Nalia, because you can replace her with imoen later. Shortbow and short sword, both effective in her hands.
I think you should look into the NPC's not on your list. Valygar and mazzy are good, though mazzy would be equipped relatively the same as nalia.
Aerie is powerful at higher levels, so many spells.
Jaheira is powerful if you find some strength enhancing gear.

My suggestion based on my game with a cavalier: Minsc, Anomen, Jaheira, Nalia, and Aerie or Valygar.

The last two depend upon whether you are a spell type guy or not. Judging by your being an inquisitor it would probably be better to pick up Valygar so as not to accidently dispel spell protections. Which Happens ALOT!!!! with inquisitors. Sorry it is so long and babbling, hoped this helps.

Valyger should definitely be on your list. His dual wielding swords will be awesome later on. He's a great up front fighter that would go along with your inq.

You should try Jan. His thief abilities are the best and he's a better pick with Yoshimo. His mage abilities aren't as great as Imoen's and Nalia's but they can't go up in thief abilities like he can. Jan can use all items later on. He's one of the only crossbowmen.

Viconia wouldn't be a good pick if you're going to have a good aligned party.

Jahiera can be pretty useful. Her sling ability is awesome. She uses scimators and clubs. Jahiera can summon more monsters.

If you have Jahiera or Viconia you won't really need Anomen.
