New party line up

Post by island007 »

Hi,

I'm getting ready to go through again. I'm wondering who I should take. This will be a two person party. Myself, F/M/T and either Viconia or Aerie. I can't decide who. Viconia is the better cleric, but Aerie is the better overall NPC. What do you guys think?

Thanks

suppose it depends on your preference?

Do you preffer being insulted or whined at?

If you like being whined at take Aerie
If you like being insulted take Viconia

if u associate vic with insulting it seems u never played her romance. with aerie u r right tho :( .

imo, if u pick aerie u should go F/T urself, this eliminates the question who gets all the cool mage stuff and makes u level faster.
If u pick vic u will level much slower than she will, gettin an uber-cleric and crappy F/M/T in comparison.

imo, vic rox.
but with her, u should rather consider 3 or even 4 ppl in ur party if u want to cover everything. on the other hand u dont really need a fighter, so how about T/M (dual/multi depending on how much thieving u want), or pick up nalia and be anything u want. she (nalia) is not that bad after all.

Id go Aerie and a Fighter/Thief. Thats a pretty dominating combo actually.

I'd be a kensai/thief and would take Aerie the cleric/mage if I was good - the party covers all the needed aspects, balanced and challenging.

As evil I'd take Vicy and make the pc kensai/mage together you will be able to detect traps and open locks, again balanced and challenging.

also for a 2 person party I'd try this:

and all the improved AI patches which are listed in The BG reference crossroads thread.

I'd have to agree with the Aerie & F/T people on this one.

Although in general I would prefer to solo a F/M/T, that's about *all* they are good for...
