    I know there are a LOT of post about this...but my problem is a little different as my party is almost entirely created by me.
    The party is:
    ---Andor,me, Priest of Lathander
    ---Cerberus, Morituri
    ---Jaheira
    ---Hayassa, Bounty Hunter
    ---Elthos, Necromancer
    ---The sixth place is being reserved to my incoming sister, Imoen.
    I'm at level 20 and my Necromancer is at level 15 (or 16 or 17..can't remember now). And I was thinking about dual-classing both. Do you think is a good idea doing it at this point as I'm going to the Brynnlaw now??? My cleric would duak-class to Fighter and my Necromancer to Cleric or Thief. What do you say...
    Oh..by the way..I'm using the XP cap remover, so forget about the limits of SoA.

    The necromancer should have been a theif or fighter to start off with and the cleric should have been a fighter or theif to start off with. Because both theives and fighters are front loaded, and mages and clerics are back loaded. This means that the power of a fighter and theif improve greatly to begin with but slow down, and mages and clerics start off improving slowly but their power improves greatly when they gain access to their high level spells.

    You may have the level cap removed, but how on earth do you expect to get your primary class back? If you're a level 20 cleric you need to get to level 21 in your second class. Not only will the wait be tedious, but I don't think that there are enough XP available in SoA for you to level up sufficiently.

    BTW, if you're just about to go to Brynnlaw, how on earth have you managed to get a level 20 cleric (requiring 2,700,000 XP)?

    And what class is Cerberus, Morituri?

    Well first of all my cleric isn't at level 20. He's at level 18 (not at 20 as I terribly said in my first post and i'm sorry for that)... and I'm playing with a lot of MODS wich gives a few new quests AND the Multistronghold MOD from EASE wich really gave a nice amount of EXP. I hadn't changed any of my NPC's (as they are created by me and I want them very "near me" all the time so I oftenly put NPC's with subquest in my sixth slot of NPC so there was need to take off any of them from my party and after finishing their subquests I took them off). The EXP from the Liches, all of them, Kangaxx, The Guardians from the MOD, the ones guarding the pieces of his body, an every another quest (Dragons, hard enemies I don't remember now and etc.) that didn't need NPC's other than my creations weren't put in my party so the XP would come all to my party without losses. And this go on...

    Cerberus is the name of my NPC.The Kit Morituri can be found on the Subrace MOD and it can be downloaded here in SP. It can even be downloaded without the Subrace MOD. Just suit yourself as it is a really wonderful Kit. The problem is that it can be a little (a lot) overpowered in the end. But it really deserves a try!
