I usually choose a Human Ranger for my class/ race, what do you choose? |

| | | Jaldur, depends on what I want to do in the next game.
For example, by playing ranger/paladin you're prolly gonna do the good path. Being good, help others, ally with good characters as Misncy, Garrick...
I like to roleplay, so a necromancer fits my way to say I'm gonna be an evil man, or I play a bard when I'm gonna search for knowing everyone/everything, or I play a fighter when I'm gonna enter more mindless on every fight.
For BG 1 my choice will be almost always a bit more muscle than magic, so I usually play a fighter (proficiencies in bows and long sword), or a fighter thief (backstab). |

| | | Whatever I feel like playing for that go-through... It's more of a roleplaying desicion for me, rather than a numbers choice.
I've played gnome thieves, dwarven fighter/clerics, a half elf bard, etc., etc.
Cheers,
TGHO

You may also use potion of mirroring, or buff your party - prot from evil, bless, all those things to increase theyr save vs sg roll... or haste a bunch of summoned skeletons, they cant be petrified, and whack them with arrows.
let me know if you have succeeded |

Combine varscona with a good armor, and if you're a fighter thief start all your combats with a backstab and a +2 ice dmg chill... Gotta love that sword  |

| | | I've finished the game with a variety of different fighters using different weapons. I've never been much with magic, so I'm trying a mage this time around and the game is a lot different. Different strategies are required just to stay alive. |

| | | I play with my player as a Gnome Fighter (lawful good) normally. I use ankeg pl8, battle axe +1 or long sword +1, a sling +1, and usually have immy and xan (minsc, jehierah, kahalid, and that other ranger (found in high hedge) most often fill the rest. I am very bad with bard stratagies so Garrick is out for me (no offense to you who love bards, i see no talent in them though).
