I believe the size of your install (minimal, regular or full) matters. Or is this just loading time?

You need to be *very* high level if you want to cast Time Stop with a Cleric/Mage, as well as a few Harm spells... so that's only valid for late-ToB :)

I actually did a (solo, not multiplayer) game using a Swasbuckler/Mage and a Fighter/Cleric, both dual-classed (no ToB).

The Swashbuckler/Mage (dual at 10) can handle traps, locks and detect illusion. Ignore Set Traps (you won't gain any greats ones) and Hide/Move, because you have all those cool ...

Also.. the trapped container on the Statue can be opened if you go away from it (until the fog covers the Statue's "blue circle"), you can then click to open it (I dont think you can disarm the trap, but it's a damage-dealing one if I recall correctly... just send in your character with the most hp ...

You can't have a tripe-classed character via dual-classing.
So no Fighter -> Thief -> Mage

But a Fighter/Thief/Mage is very similar to a Swashbuckler --> Mage..
A Cleric/Mage can easily become as powerful in melee as a Fighter/Cleric/Mage with the right buffs.

You can't dual-class to/from a multiclass (Fighter/Thief --> Mage and Fighter --> Mage/Thief aren't possible dual classing options).

Use an invisibility spell / ability (Hide in Shadow), approach the Flayer and use the circlet.
