    I'm over soloing BG1 so i dedcided to take a party that is a bit different (for me)

    I will be a CG wild mage(never been this before so i will need advice.

    then:aerie
    Minsc
    Mazzy
    Haerdalis

    I plan to take sarevok in ToB.

    My problems/questions are:

    1)is aerie all the cleric i need?

    2)do i create another char myself for the 6th spot? (if so how do i do this? i'm quite keen on the idea. a cleric thief or assasain)

    3)do i kick out mazzy for sarevok(seems like the natural choice)

    pls give me any advice you can.
    shot.

    If your planning on romancing Aerie keep Haer'Dakus out of the party. Aerie is a decent cleric, tends to be more of an offence one in my opinon, because of the C/M thing, I'd stick to Aerie, Mince, Mazzy, and you in the beginning, Maby Jahira instead of Aerie. Druids come in handy plus she has that nice Harpers thing. Make a quick thief for a 5th person. Grab Imy and kick on the one you made, grab Sar, and go kick some god spawn ass in ToB.

    TO create an extra character, start a multiplayer game and create two characters and assign them to yourself by clicking the ticks next to their names. Then, when you save, you can move the save from the multiplayer saves to the single player saves folder.

    Aerie's a decent enough cleric, I managed to finish with her the first time I ran through, plus you get a romance which is a bonus.

    You can kick out Mazzy for Sarevok if you wish, but I'd kick out HaerDalis, mainly because he aggravates me, and he'll mess up your aerie romance if you take it.

    If you do create a 6th character, I'd go with your cleric/thief, because you need a thief, and anotehr divine spell caster is ALWAYS useful. I useually have 4 casters in my party, but I'm a magic heavy user.

    How about this: bouncing HD, and creating a cleric assasain, and undead hunter and my wild mage. and then romancing aerie and take mazzy and minsc along for the ride. i'm over jahiera. i'll get rid of the weaker of mazzy and minsc for sarevok. foresee any problems?

    Edit: i need some help with char setup. i haven't created most of these chars before. i need help with the Mage and cleric/thief combo. races and stats. sorry for the large amount of Q's.
