Ultimate Icewind Dale 2 party

[krunchyfrogg]

I tried e-mailing the Red Mage on this one (Twinkin' Out), but I don't know if I will get a response.

Thoughts on the ultimate IWD2 party?

Ever go to GameFAQs?

might help a bit.

Seeing how this thread is about IWD2 I hope you won't mind if I stray a little bit off topic. Does anyone know how I can put my own custom character portraits in the "potraits directory?" I don't know what to do.

Also I'm fond of using a party of nothing but specialist wizards plus sorcerers. You can just combo-cast magic missile every big boss. It's fun.

You need to have the portraits the exact right size.

I never got too far in it, but that's mostly because when I first played it, I really had no clue what I was doing. "Priests in plate armor? ABSURD!"

You can imagine how far I got.

Anyhow, I did decently while I did play, but I always used a Fighter, a Barbarian, a Rogue/Ranger, a Pally or a Monk, a Priest, and a Mage or Sorceror. Of course, I never really figured out how to maneuver my Mage into a position to zap with magic without smiting my own boys. However, when I did pull it off, Color Spray plus lots of melee guys created a beautiful beatdown. And if worst came to worst, I could just fling a fireball or something into the melee and the tough guys could just take the hit.

Worked for me. They're pretty darn powerful.
