So I've recently discovered BG and I'm hooked. In the last few months I've done numerous playthroughs but I had a few questions.
1. I noticed that in most of my playthroughs that i actually finish I end up as some form of fighter and or arcane class. I've attempted other classes but I never actually finish them for some reason. I really like the idea of Charname being being in the thick of the fight dealing crazy damage and having arcane magic to back him up. My current playthroughs are evil Kensai(13)/Mage and good F/M/T. I've finished Blade, F/M, F/I, Sorcerer, and Archer. I was wondering what are some of your favorite non-arcane and/or non-fighter classes and some tips on how to use them without cheese (for example I once had my FMT using mislead for his backstabs just to try it, and while fun it's not something I will ever do again as it trivializes the game).
2. What are some good NPC mods that work with EE? I would like to try new experiences as I replay the game again multiple times but most of the mods that I've found seem to be made for vanilla. And again please no op'ed NPC's![:)]( ":)")
3. Ascension or SCS? I want to make it more difficult, but I would like to try just one of these at first to get my feet wet (not even sure if you could use them at the same time).
Thanks in advance for any and all replies.
Oh yeah these questions are in regards to both BG1 and 2 EE.
