    I was thinking of puting together 5 pure fighters with 18 strength, 18 dexterity, 18 constitution, 18 charisma, 5 intelligence, and 5 wisdom. I would play just the 5. What do you guys think.

    [​IMG] I'm thinking trouble agianst a very few monsters which can be easier killed with magic. I always enjoy a party of variation, so I'd also really miss the healing and disarm trap skill. But hey, it's a hack'n'slash game. Why not go for a hack'n'slash party? ;)

    That's VERY risky, no find/disarm traps, no lock-picking, no healing and no magic. It is an interesting idea though, but try to use variation (ie elf, dwarf, human, gnome and half-elf). Personally, I would recommend a sixth character, either a fighter/thief or a mage/cleric, but that's just me :p.

    [​IMG] 5 fighters. The healing will be a draft. So will reloads. Anyway Good luck.

    My best shot at IWD was with a dwarven F/C and a F/M/T and 4 pure fighters. Just hack and slash your way to fortune.

    I soloed a Paladin the first time. (I thought I could meet NPC's) Tough luck. :lol:
    EDIT: I didn't complete that Solo thing. Boy it was annoying without healing. But of course it could be done....

    I think its interesting, but if you can create 6 characters what's the point in creating 5 who are replicas of each other?

    My thoughts exactly, I beat the game with a company of very different characters.
    Dwarf fighter/cleric
    Dwarf fighter
    Elven fighter/thief
    Elven ranger
    Human paladin
    gnome illusionist/cleric

    I have beaten the game in heart of fury mode with different combos of charters. I even bet it with a combo of only 3. I just want to try new thins. I've started the game under 5 fighter game. To check my progress go there in that post.
