Well i am planing to create druid.. dwarf druid.. He is going to use halberds..

But as for levels..

Druid x/sorcerer 1/RDD 10 would that be OK?

Well i am planing to play NWN and HotU i wont play SoU ever again.. And could you give me some recomendations of modules wich i could use to get to level 40..

Do you want to become a level 40 by playing or just get the amount of exp right away?

Try out the +Novice to Epic Character Maker (look in the hall of fame on NWVault) for leveling, it's the best currently.

As for you character build, from of powergaming perspective, on of the least good combinations in the game. Druid/Sorc/RDD all conflict with each other. You will have to take an extra feat for Halberds. Dwarf is relatively unheard of in powergaming circles for a caster. Druid/Sorc means you have you divide your points in WIS/CHA giving bad saves for spells. You have very little use of the RDD combat bonuses and will have bad AB due to druid and sorc (and a low number of attacks if not built properly).

Well i am not sure.. But for me that sounds perfect.. but i am not taking 1 sorcerer level to cast spell i just take it to be able to be RDD.. and my char has now -2 in Charisma...

Unfortunately, if I'm not wrong, you are going to suffer the XP penalty because there's more than one level between your druid level and the sorcerer one (and dwarf favoured class is Fighter).

I would try bard+rdd+fighter. The bard gives you more HP than sorcerer and you should avoid the penalty being a dwarf.

Yes i know that.. but do you seriusly think that i like powergaming? If you ask me it is one thing that i hate and loathe.. even that dwarf druid idea got little
bit boring after all.. and i was going to be RDD to just to get wings...

But anyway i will just create full druid..

Interesting idea

I always thought this would be an interesting concept character. If you got your Wis all the way to 30, you could take Dragon Shape. With the 10 RDD levels you would be a half-dragon most of the time that could turn into a full dragon. Kind of like a were-dragon.

No, its not the most powerful combination, but its very cool.

If you are not lawful, I would suggest Bard over Sorcerer though. You could use the bard song and take some great skills like Tumble and UMD. So then you could be a singing were-dragon!

If you want wings, go Druid/Shifter and get the Dragon Shape feat, as Screaming Johny suggests. Although I'd completely drop the Bard/Sorc/RDD levels entirely.

I do like the idea of a Dwarf Druid - I've played one in a PnP game and it was a lot of fun. Not sure how the translation to NWN would go though (as not all PnP nuances are brought across).

Cheers,

If you want wings (angel wings as well and even tails!) go download LETO. Note that it will invalidate your character for online play.

Sounds good..

But then i havent played this game for some time...

And as for playing online.. Here at GameBanshee forums.. mostly it shows the good side of certain game community.. and i wont be jumping to play neverwinter....(online)

As for PnP.. I have tried that... PnP wans't that fun way too many rules and such.. So i created my own RPG rules.. it turned out to be quite simple and fun... but then i was something like 9 then..

But i must say that only 3 classes per character... It just sucks...

BYE..
