specialist mage (transmuter or abjurer), probably an elf
10 str (why more?)
20 dex (ac)
16 con (highest bonus for non-fighters)
18 int (spells and skills/lore)
10 (at least) wis (lore and saves)
8 cha (or less, depending on how many points i can spend on wis)

Let's just hope there are some really juicy spells in IWD2

I would probably stick with generally speaking the party I already had in BGII, mainly because even though some of the characters are interesting, they have those defficiencies I simply do not like.

Half-Elf fighter/mage(my character)
Gold Dwarf fighter(with heavy specialization in axes and clubs)
Elf mage
Drow elf mage
human Ranger
elf cleric

I have to think on this, as all the new kits are nice. Once I decide i'll post and tell you. I like all the druid kits a lot though.

No more kits. 3E multi-classing has replaced them.

Has it been officialy announced? I thought that was just a possibility. Great if it is, though. I much prefer full multiclassing ability than some sort of hybrid system.

This is true, i've just red the interview from the producer, Darren Monahan and he states that they withdrawn the kits from the game. here is a quote:

Have the character classes been finalized, or are there some possibilities still being tossed around? Any chance we’ll see the sorcerer equivalent of a Wild Mage?

Yes, we’ve settled on strictly 3rd Edition classes: Barbarian, Bard, Cleric, Druid, Fighter, Monk, Paladin, Ranger, Rogue, Sorcerer and Wizard. We previously announced that kits would be in the game, but through feedback from our fans and a number of new changes we’re making, we decided to remove them in favor of implementing more of the 3E rules.

Talking My imagination has gone wild!

For the leader of the group I would have a LE Monk/Sorcerer, drow ( they are called dark moon monks or something like that), then I have also made up other interesting characters that I might implement
1-LE Monk/Sorcerer, dark-elf
2- TN Druid/Sorcerer, wood-elf, or human
3-_G Cleric/Paladin, moon-elf
4- CN Barbarian/Rogue, halfling
5- NG Fighter/Mage, human
6- CG Bard/Fighter, half-elf

This is sooooo good. Strictly 3rd Edition classes, but what about weapons!?! Is this also going to be 3rd Edition, everyone can use any kind of weapon? I hope so.

As far as i know from PoR, weapon proficencies in 3E D&D are divided in simple weapons which can be used from all classes , martial weapons for the fighting classes, armour and shield.

Archer!

Hey all! This is my first post, although I have been lurking for about a year or so now...

I personally think that the Archer is one of the best kits, it is well balanced with it's special abilities and limitations. It is a shame that they felt the need to down-grade the kit for IWD2... Anyway, I ramble on! Here is what I think I will play:

Wood Elven Ranger (Archer) Longbow and Longsword

I am also quite partial to the Monk as well, I just wish they would stop tweeking the kits!
