What is your favorite class. What about your favorite NPC.

My favorite class is a paladin, and my favorite NPC is eather Viconia or Minsc.

My favourite class is thief.And my favourite NPCs are Viconia,Aerie,Minsc,and Imoen.

my fave class is Fighter/Cleric

my fave NPC is either Mazzy or Valygar

:D

SSSSAAAAAAAARRRRREEEEEVVVVVOOOOOKKKK!!!!!!!!!!

he is the best npc in the game!! a total of 95 on his stat roll and full proficincies in two handed swords and two handed weapons... one man killing machine!!!

oh and by the way, my favourite class is barbarian (dwarf, as a matter of fact)...

My favourite class is elven Fighter/Mage.
IMHO it's not the best combination but it's
my favourite. Best npc? Imoen. A "bright as rain" mage with usable thieving skills. Just what I need.

I favour Berserkers (elven or halfling for a change from standard Berserker form and wielding 2 longswords), Conjurers and Avenger Druids.

In terms of NPCs I like Imoen, Mazzy, Edwin and Jaheira.

Favorite class: Ranger (although this time through I am playing a fighter/thief from BG on)
Favorite NPC: Minsc

Fav class: :love: halfling :love: THIEF :love:

Archers are pretty cool, just like Cavaliers. But besides that, Mazzy is the best NPC in BG-2 SoA, followed by Edwin and Sarevok.

favourite class = fighter/thief

favourite npc = edwin is probably the most entertaining and haerdalis the most unpredictable

My favourite class must be the berserker he is awesome. I like a character with a little spunk.
My fav NPC is Edwin no doubt. He is awesome and even if he is cheesy so is he the NPC most like me ;)

Favourite class: Halfling Kensai

NPC: Mazzy is undoubtedly my favourite NPC. A dead shot with a short bow, great up close (particularly by ToB, as she can get enough proficiencies to get good in a useful weapon)and the most attractive halfling knight I've come across :)

Favourite class: The only class I've used more than once is fighter, so I suppose that's it. I think thief combinations are the most fun to play, though.

Favourite NPCs: Edwin, Anomen and, of course, Jan.

I love my gnome fighter illusionist and I also favour archers, sorcerers and bards.

My favorite NPCs are Minsc (Boo too), Haer'Dalis and, of course Edwin.

Cheers, Void.

Shapeshifter
Cernd

Running through Athkatla as a Greater Werewolf is just fun, and Cernd is my favourite tree-huggin hippy.

My favorit class is the Undead hunter paladin
and my favorit NPC's are Minsc, Boo, Aerie and Korgan :evil: :evil: :evil: ;)

fav class is cavalier. no question.

favorite npc would have to be... valygar. can't say i like his personality (not exactly the most entertaining npc in the game... that goes to edwin or jan), but he IS pretty good in combat w/ those dual wielded katanas. and to think some people give him a bow...

[This message has been edited by daltyr (edited October 31, 2001).]

Thiefy classes
And as for my favourite Npc, that would have to be Jan - a gnome who knows the value of a turnip, or at least the value of a spurious story generally involving overselling the value of turnip-based produce hilariously - but I digress...Jan digresses a lot too, did I ever tell you about the time...

My fav. class is a F/M/T....I like to go off on my own, cause a little trouble, and then bring my Bro, Saravok, to clean up the mess.

The only problem with a F/M/T is the exp cap. But even still I had no trouble finishing SOA solo. I've only finished TOB one time, but I did that with Sarevok, Imoen, and Amoen. If I could find an exp cap remover, I'll try it solo.

The most fun I had from BG was with a human (gasp!) barbarian. always just that little bit too far in front...

Fav NPC? Edwin, 'cos this time his comments about the rest of the party being no more than brainless monkeys seemed more apposite than usual...

my favorite class is propably swashbuckler/cleric, minsc-boo, edwin and valygar are my best npc's and of course sarevok!!!!

Well first time thorugh BGII/ToB and im playing a 1/2 Orc Wizard Slayer. Bad choice but it grows on you and at 25th Level with all the best Armor / Bast Sword or Axe and Shield he is starting to just hack of heads whilst saying "Magic what magic" :). Also makes your early game play harder i think.

NPC Aerie...shes such a moaner but packs loads of spells and must be setting a record for being ressurected.

I prefer Wizard Slayers, since at higher levels they are basically immune to magic.
For NPC's, I'd have to say Aerie and Minsc, the "issue" with them is probably the funniest dialogue in the game!

My favourite class is with no doubt the almighty Sorcerer. I never used much different spells anyway, so he is much more prefered over those pesky Wizards anyday.

Favourite NPC: Korgan. For just being the bastard he is :cool:

Favorite class is Cavaliers, 'cause I like putting the whoop on dragons.

Favorite NPC is Korgan, despite him being a grumpy little bastard. But then again, I'm a grumpy little bastard, so it kinda works out. :p

ny favorite class is a druid and my fav NPC is sarevok(cauz of his deathbringer assault)

Hi,

My fav class is the Newt :)

oops sorry for the flippant reply I just couldn't resist Hierophant (I like that word, good choice)

Cheers,

WittyNewt

I prefer Mage/Theif...a theif running around with stoneskin and throwing spells like water..just a pleasing image over all. and with the thiefs use all items later in the game...a mage running with the carsomyr..an even more pleasing image..then backstabing with that...just beautiful

as to a favorite NPC..id have to say Sarovak(sp?) but other then him...i prefer to go it alone..

I find myself more and more liking Rangers, Druids, and Clerics the most. Bards are up there too for me.

As it is hard for me to pick a least favorable NPC it is also hard to choose a favorite. What can I say, I like them all.

I've gotta say I like Mage/Thieves.
Then again Monks, Sorcerer, Ranger/Clerics and Fighter/Thieves are pretty cool too.
For overall fun factor, I think M/Ts are about as good as it gets (I would take F/M/Ts if there wasn't an XP cap).

As for favorite NPC, I think Minsc makes life worth living.

Favorite Class: Ranger/Cleric, this guy rules! I just love playing a Priest because there are so few good ones in SoA(by good I also mean of alignment). Also casting both cleric and drudic spells rules.

Favorite NPC: I'd have to say Yoshi, he's a great theif and his traps killed both dragons by themselves. Too bad he betrayed me.....I have his heart stashed in my personal chest at my stronghold :evil: MUHUHAHAHA! :evil:. Well this will probably change to Sarevok once I get ToB.

definitely Kensai/Mage dualed.

as of NPC, I like the big guy with the small mouse (Minsc said: "Don't called my Boo MOUSE!"). Cute and powerful, esp weilding Crom Fayer.

It's pity that his witch killed by Jon, but now he'd found Aerie...

Fav. class: mage, sorcerer, paladin
Fav. NPC-s: Sarevok, Keldorn, Mazzy.

My fave classes:

Half-Orc Wiz Slayer/Barbarian
Elven Archer

My fave NPCs:

Korgan
Jan

[This message has been edited by Black Rose (edited November 23, 2001).]

My fave classes are F/M/T (Jack of all trades, but master to none... at least until the REAL fun starts...:)) and Assassin.

Fave NPCs.... Okay, Sarevok is really cool. Viccy is another one, Edwin is a vblast, and I also like Anomen a lot... He's really cool too.

Ara
(How the Hell am I suppsed to pass Swedish?)

My favorite class are Mage.

My favorite NPC is,of course,Sarevok :evil:
Edwin is also rather good.

[This message has been edited by Sarevok (edited December 12, 2001).]

My favourite class, is of course, the human kensai, the ultimate blademaster.
Of course, they dumbed it down in BG2. Bah!

Sarevok is my favourite companion, followed very closely by Viconia and Imoen.

My favourite class is the sorcerer. I'm currently soloing one through SoA on insane mode:hahaerr:
My favourite Npc? Jan.

[This message has been edited by Tasohan (edited December 14, 2001).]

My favorite class: Sorcerer ( Sorry, an uberpowerful spellthrower is just too much to resist :evil: ) and my favorite NPC would probably be Edwin, if only for his constant entertainment.

[This message has been edited by AvaLance204 (edited December 15, 2001).]

fav class: thief
best ncp: BOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Boo ain't exactly a NPC.:nolike:

Who says so? You can get Boo in your party.

Through cheating:rolleyes:

You call that cheating?

Cheating is the Bhaalspawn powers known as Ctrl-Y and Ctrl-R. Cheating is using SK to up your stats in everything. Cheating is importing a level 50 character into a new internet game.

Creating Boo to join you? I call that enhancing the role-playing experience of BG2.

Favourite class has to be sorcerer.

Favourite NPCs are Minsc and Aerie - I love how after Aerie becomes his witch he is always trying to protect her! (But it sucks when she dies and he goes Berserk and starts attacking everything in sight - including my party!)

Rhytm... This is a thing we can't agree on.

You can only get Boo by cheating. So it's cheating. :rolleyes:

Let me chime in... Yes, you can only add Boo by cheating/editing. So the debate is over. Boo is not a legit NPC and never will be. :grr:

Sorceress (yes, I prefer to play this class as female) because I have to plan for and get full use out of every single spell she knows.

Korgan cracks me up. I love that grumpy dwarf!

Someone has got to say it. MONK. There I did it.

Fav NPC, Viconia, lots of pleasure, lots of pain.

For Boo....Boo effectively IS in your party. After all, he does the thinking for Minsc.

My fav character is the undead hunter paladin.
With the immunity to level drain he really kicks some vampire and wraith ass!

NPs? Well, I like Minsc and...Aerie!
Ok, she's a bit whiny in the beginning, but she is a powerful spellcaster and the romance you can have with her is nice ( especially in ToB where she really becomes self-confident and stops whining).

Stop talking about boo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I posted earlier on here, but I have now changed my mind.

Right now I think my favorite class is Assassin, and maybe Assassin/Mage once I dual class him. The posion ability is great since you can use it on ranged weapons as well, the lack of theif skills is really not that bad I'm managing just fine with only 50 in both stealth skills, 90 in lockpick, and 85 in find traps. If I played a halfling or an elf, this wouldn't be a problem at all, but I'm not, because I want to dual class.

My favorite NPC is now Valygar.

Human Fighter

Best NPC: Aerie, Sarevok or Viconia

[This message has been edited by jesper898 (edited December 31, 2001).]

monk and edwin. edwin rules. monks rule.

The Ultimate combo Cleric/Ranger. This class gives you alot of value, ie, you are really a cleric/ranger/druid--- that is you have access to druidic priest spells.! You can disable spellcasting easy, mages, dragons, etc... with summon swarm or creeping doom. Undead slaying is a easy with sunray. It makes killing, vamps, lichs, zombies, ghasts, shades, etc a walk in the park. I used two sunrays on Bodhi and she was near dead. It only took my one more bash with my hammer to send her back in the old coffin.! Also, although good class with value, a swashbuck/mage. Basically a fighter/mage/thief. !

No an archer is the best

favourite class: conjurer(payed it since BG1 -> ToB, though I think had sorcerer been an option in BG1, that would probably be my choice then)
favourite NPC: Jaheira then Minsc...

Hmm, My favourite character has to be the Blade - Then i take Ribalds ring and solo-ed through SoA! I also favour Swashbucklers (practiacally Fighter/Thieves!) and Sorcerers!

Favourite NPC: Probably Sarevok (if you're evil) or Edwin, and Nalia (for her sheer stupidity and Laughable-ness) if you're good.

Wel, i passed the game, well, let's say a couple a times. I think that the best class is Assasin, with her backstab multiplayer of 7 dual wielding Celestial Fury and blackrazor. Well she have litle stars with dualwielding, bt if you dualclass her to fighter, she is, well, no one can stop her.
And NPC:The best NPC is afcors MINSC, Edwin comes as replacement.

my favorite class is the wizard-slayer and npc viconia or sarevok

My favorite class is the Sorcerer. At high levels, I love being able to cast 7 Time Stops in a row.

My favorite NPCs are Sarevok (love that Deathbringer assault and wicked laugh) and Viconia (very entertaining romance).

Favorite class in a party: paladin, undead hunter kit -- a great frontline fighter against all opponents (level draining resistance kicks).

Favorite class solo: fighter/mage/thief (with xcap removed).

Favorite NPC: Aerie, because I'm a family man.

Okay, what is it with all of you? If you need a theif so much, use Imoen. Otherwise just use a mage with alot of Knocks memorized. Unless you can think of something that someone is carrying something MAJOR that you want, you don't need a pick pocketer. Basicly, you just can't get better than a mage. (Okay, you theif lovers can have theif/mage. I DO kinda like them.) I know what you're saying though. "Well, what about during the time Imoen's at spellhold." USE YOSHIMO TILL THEN. As for me:

Fav Class: Mage (Specificly Invoker)
Cleric/Mage for Multi
Fav NPC: (I'll just put my fav party since I can't pick just one.) Meldethar (My chr; Invoker) Minsc, Aerie, Jaheira (don't ask me why.) Nalia (Wish she had a romance. I like responsible Robin-Hood style girls) and Anomen (He reminds me of me)

Does that settle things?

Fav Class: Wild Mage
Fav Npc: Edwin

Favorite Class: Fighter(Beserker)
Favorite NPC: Korgan

Fav Class? : KENSAI/MAGE Dual to mage after lavel 12 kensai? SPELLCASTING MONSTER CUISINART BWA HA HAHAAA HHHAAAAAAAAAAAA

(Sorry, not knows what comes over me... must be fumes...)

fave Npc? Haer'Dalis! Fluty Bard(can anyonesay where THAT ones from?) only middling fighter, why Hare'Dalis? Just casue when I do real deal Planscape RPing im alwase in the doomgaurd faction! Yay Entropy!

favourite class: thieves(any type)
favourite npc: minsc and edwin

My favourite class : Multi Cleric/Mage
My favourtie NPC : Still have to find out, I'm in Chapter 2 atm and playing good-neutral party. Now Minsc and Boo is my most favourite.

I'm not sure how nany ppl will agree with this, but the archer can beat prety much any single class warrior type in the game, in both melee and ranged fights except for maby the kensai, mainly because of the called shot ability as well as having the same high level ability's as the fighter and also the fact that he can cast priest spells like armor of faith for cumulative effects.
he may not do as much damage as a fighter in melee but he begins with ** in duel wielding, and the damage factor doesnt matter if the archer is immune to physical damage:), my tob archer could completly own every melee character before they get anywhere near melee range with a whirlwind attack, and anyone that might have been able to would have been as good as dead with all the damage they recived;).

Fav class: Paladin
Fav NPC: Minsc and Anomen
