Thief or Fighter/Thief
Thief or Fighter/Thief
Getting ready to start a new game here soon. I want to roll with a thief this time that does alot of backstabbing. Just wondering if should go with a pure thief or a fighter/thief? I guess my biggest concern with a pure thief is if I can his THACO low enough and my worry with the fighter/thief is he'll level extremely slow. Thoughts?

Thief. Unlike in BG2, in the prequel they are not pathetic on their own.

Fighter/Thief multiclass. The extra versatility, hitpoints, damage, attacks per round, ability to wear helms and use shields in combat more than make up for the slower levelling, especially when you have Imoen right from the get-go (and other thieves later if you're not an Immy fan) to share skills with - you can let her focus on traps and locks while you backstab, and you can fight once you've backstabbed to boot.
This goes double if you're going to take them into BG2, especially if you have ToB.

I'd rather have you re-read the comments carefully, take a pick, and try for yourself.
