    Don't you want a 'contact other plane' spellcaster in there somewhere? Or even a 'lower resistance'?

    Now, if you're going to be using the Killsword, that fighter/ranger combo might do the trick...

    If the killsword is an non-legit weapon im not going to use it. Humm a spell caster will help out in this. But he will die to often, so i wont go witha mage

    Try a multi fighter/cleric or a cleric/ranger then. In heart of fury mode, they should level up pretty quickly then. Both can fight well and you might need some extra healing power or raise dead power. Plus they can summon help. I'd do the ranger/cleric for their stealth if needed and a greater access to spells.

    [​IMG] How about a female thief/mage elf, who specialises in using daggers, bows and magic?
    Or possibly a fighter/mage who uses two handed weapons? Just a couple of ideas off the top of my head.

    Argh-- Ranger/Cleric or if you want to edit some scrolls in Gnome C/Illusionist...

    Have the Fighter rush any enemies, and keep them occupied while the C/Illus casts almost every spell in the game...

    Half a Cleric to Turn Undead is necessary, or you won't make it to Presio...

    BTW starting new and unhacked in HoF is very very hard to do... Just getting past the Orc Cave is d*mn hard

    Its going to be my ranger and my Thief DCed into a mage

    Ill kept you updated on my new quest
