Duel class

Post by Fof »

I would like to duel class a druid. Is this possible. I know I have to be a human to duel but I can't seem to find the essential ability scores for a fighter/druid. I guess I'd really like to be a ranger/druid and if it's possible could someone let me the ability scores needed for that combo. Thanks

Fighters are the only ones Druids can dual to. However, Ranger/Clerics are able to cast druid spells, for some reason. You might want to try this combo.

Thanks Rail, BTW do you know what ability Druids have to be 17 in? I figure fighters need strength 15 for a duel fighter/druid.

To dual class into a druid, you gotta also pump Charisma and Wisdom to 17. And you have to be True Neutral.

@Rail: I tried to dual-class my Druid into a fighter at Level 6 (a bit early but I was only testing) but it didn't work.....what are the stats that I need in order to sucessfully dual-class my druid into a fighter???

@K- I believe tigreone's right on the attributes. If you're already a druid, you'd have to have a 15 or higher in Wis and Cha (prime requisites for the druid class) and you'd need 17 or higher in Str (prime req. for fighters). Unfortunately, you usually want high Dex and Con too, just for the bonuses, so that just leaves Int to be low. Gotta have some pretty good rolls to pull this off! (or dalekeeper Image ) Someone correct me if I have this backwards. Image

Fighter to Druid - Str 15, Wis 17, Cha 17
Druid to Fighter - Str 17, Wis 15, Cha 15

True Neutral Alignement needed.

Yes, you cannot be a Ranger/Druid, only Ranger Cleric (who can cast Druid spells).

Ranger to Cleric - Str 15, Con 15, Wis 17
Cleric to Ranger - Str 17, Con 17, Wis 15

Good Alignment needed.

There is a potion of strenght transference (-1dex, +1 str).

Not sure about wisdom though.

Are you open to suggestions about Dalekeeper? Image

@Karembeu....you can use


CHEATERSDOPROSPER:CreateItem("BOOK03");


Just change the BOOK number to get the one's you want.
BOOK03 - +1 Con
BOOK04 - +1 Str
BOOK05 - +1 Dex
BOOK06 - +1 Int
BOOK07 - +1 Chr
BOOK08 - +1 Wis


If you want more....5 books of dex...type...


CHEATERSDOPROSPER:CreateItem("BOOK05",5);

And you will get one book with 5 uses.

@Gruntboy & Weasel: Thanks for the help guys....my Druid only needs 1 more point of Strength so I think I'll settle for the potion of Strength Transference...... Image
