    [​IMG] I'm playing the NWN OC (maybe I'll finish it someday :p ) and I'm planning to make a cleric/fighter/blackie, but I'm not sure when to take fighter levels, or should I even take them at all. Also any tips on feats would be useful. Thanks for the input.

    Stats:
    You'll be hard pressed for stats in any case. Pretty much the only one's you can leave at average, or even below average is int and dex. Strenght, constitution, wisdom and charisma are all important, unless you're not planning to take many levels of cleric. Lvl2 cleric spells should help you quite a bit though, he has all stat buffs except dexterity which you dont need anyway. Oh, i belive blackie already has bull's strenght an an ability, so you wont have to memorise that.

    Feats:
    Power attack and cleave obviously, since you want to be one really evil guy. Perhaps Lightning Reflexes, since reflex will be your lowest saving throw. Or not, if you intend to wear boots of reflexes +x which lie aplenty around. Weapon Focus and Specialisation on your selected weapon (with fighter lvl4 at least). Improved critical for the same weapon later. Other feats are up to you, since your char doesnt need any other one's really badly.

    Skills:
    Discipline&Heal? There wont be many points for them anyway. Although, on the other hand Heal skill certainly doesnt seem right for such a vile bastard ;)

    Oh, btw, fighter levels always come handy, if for nothing else than weapon specialization. On the other hand cleric of 4 levels higher is certainly more powerful. BAB difference isnt that big, while the spells make up for the combat feats. You just have to decide whether you want a more magicaly adept divine calling evil guy, or a masacrating madman with some little divine help.
    :)

    I'm pretty sure that a character requires a certain number of ranks in Hide and Move Silently before becoming a Blackguard, thus your limited skill points would have to go there since they are cross-class for both Cleric and Fighter.

    You could take levels of Ranger instead of Fighter...same BAB, and the the skills you need for Blackie are Class Skills.
