| | | Retraining NPC's
Hello
Is there a way (mods, cheats, whatever) to change the class and skillpoints of NPCs that join you on a higher level?
Without such a thing, you're rather limited in your party setup... |

| | | If you have the expansion pack, then you can retrain the skills. Otherwise, you're probably stuck looking for a trainer of some sort.

Without such a thing, you're rather limited in your party setup... | Try the Hotfix Mod (for v2.2), there is an NPC that is able to release the skillpoints form a skill so you can re-invest them anywhere else.
For your party setup, simplest is probably if you just hire an actor with a primary class you like. 
Also remind that even as veteran/elite party you can return anytime on the mercenary map and hire the actors there with their 'origin' specialization (insofar it changes). |

| | But that's the point: I want to have my "final" party ASAP. Re-investing skillpoints isn't enough, I want to change classes as well.
For example: Currently I'm playing an Archer, with Lothar as a Shieldbearer. When I get three members, Taar will be a Nature Mage. For my fourth member, I was thinking of using Deru or Vix as a Combat Mage, but by this time, they are pretty far in the Archerclass. I just wanted to change that. Oh well, thanks for the suggestions.  |

| | It seems you will encounter soon Finala in act 2, it's very probable she can help you to get finally a desired combat mage. 
In meantime you could browse around here or in other DS2 related forums. I'm sure you will find many threads bothering about 'how to keep a young (cursing) combat mage alive'. |

| | | If you want help with your party here is the ultimate combination:
Name - Race, Class, weapon of choice
You - Human, Combat Mage, fire mastery
Deru - Dryad, Ranger, bow
Lothar - Half-Giant, Melee, shield and any melee weapon
Taar - Dryad, Nature Mage, ice mastery
Vix - Human, Ranger, thrown weapon (only when you can have 5 party members)
Eva - Human, Melee, two swords (only when you can have 6 party members) |

Lothar starts out as a fighter and Taar starts out as a nature mage, so you can wait on those two. If you want Deru to be a combat mage, then you should immediately grab her so you can control her development.

Oh, well, I think Act I is do-able without a combat mage. Hell, my first time through was without a combat mage.
