Ok, I am building a Fighter/Assassin and I am wondering what type of armor I should use? Light/Medium/Heavy? I would think that I need the dex bonus from the light armor, but I don't get as much AC. What would you suggest?

THanks

Light armor as long as your armor bonus from dexterity can still be used to gain full AC from the armor, then when your dexterity bonus goes over 8 ( allowed by padded armors ), switch to using clotes.

Whats your DEX? Don't you need to be in light armour to use sneak attacks and many rouge skills will get penalties for going in Plate.

In NwN you don't need to be in light armour to make sneak attacks.

I've had a figther/rogue with full plate and 2h sword running around doing sneak attacks.
