    [​IMG] I rolled my kensai with 18int
    I wan't him to multi into a mage
    so he can use the black blade of disaster
    and kai and various shielding spells.
    I'm thinking that he could be a slaughter machine with his l33t fighting skills backed up by magery and with 18 init he's a killer mage I let down in his strength(13) but that can be made up with the girdle of frost giant strength so I'm thinking black blade of disaster+kai+str bonus+ boots of etherealness+other nasty stuff will make him a killing machine.
    send yer notes goats :)

    Slappy drops his head and mutters something about 'here we go again'.

    May I assume that you haven't dualed to mage yet? Because it shouldn't be possible with str 13, but good luck anyway :)

    Yes, but you still need str 15. 13 is not enough, hence my question.

    why should I get my ass kicked?
    configuring a party for optimum efficiency is key.
    I'm currently a kensai
    with:
    13 str
    17 dex
    17 con
    11 wis
    18 int
    3 cha

    I cannot multi into mage?
    I have 18 int
    please tell me the multi classing rules

    From the AD&D Rules FAQ you can download from Sorcerer's Place: http://www.sorcerers.net/Games/BG2/index.php

    You need at least 15 in the Prime Stats of your current class (i.e. 15 STR for a Fighter) and at least 17 in the Prime Stats of your desired class (i.e. 17 INT for a Mage).

    And one other thing... You're dual-classing not multi-classing.

    thank you
    I'll reroll then
    :)
    I've already gotten to the end of BG so I don't think I'm cheating
    I've dealt with all the fuckers with time stop
    that spell sucks(for me) and so did
    I really do think it's a gay spell
    I only think it's ok for bosses because they
    well need an unfair advantage to be a challenge
    but I wouldn't use it against them I'd feel cheap

    well i don't see why you all have to have a really big argument about kensai, i never was one, i will probably be one in my next game, but i just don't get why you have to have huge power gaming arguments every time this is brought up. Oh by the way assasins rule....

    [​IMG] TheHolyGit kensai/mages or kensai/thieves could kill an assasin 7 times before he hit the ground. So there.

    Assassins are funnier and better than Kensai/Mages. In my oppinion.
    I´ve played both, and I must say that the Assassin kicked more ass than my Kensai/Mage.
    And there ya go.
