What type of style are you?

Jarvis

Just wanted to see what people do I go for the Fists of fury

CaptRory

All the cool kids are going Spell Caster.

CoM_Solaufein

Two weapons. Even my fighter/mage will use weapons more than spell casting.

Malicron

I just love playing a mage in the Infinity Engine.

LadyEibhilinRhett

well i guess it counts as a spellcaster, but bard. I am a bard. Always bard. Bardy bard bard.

Kaltzor

While I like swords, mages can be slightly better.

sarevok57

im lazy and I like bashing baddies over the head with an over compensating weapon of mass destruction, hoi hoi hoi he ha

KidCarnival

Ranged, unless I'm backstabbing with a quarterstaff.

Lord_Tansheron

Where's the two weapons + spells option!

Clearly the superior choice.

APR > all, yo.

ajwz

I either play fighter mage or mage fighter.

Lets see, should I go with a pointy piece of metal or a spell that can melt off someone's face? Decisions decisions.

CoM_Solaufein

I do like spells that deal with fire.


Mmmm fire....

EntropyXII

I have tried dual-wielding. I have come to the conclusion - I cannot dual-wield.

DaggerXIV

There's nothing better than a two handed weapon to fix anything.
But dual wielding is good too, especially for rogue and rangers.

the_spyder

Most of my characters are Casters of some description. I just love manipulating the primordial essence of the universe. And I love manipulating reality on an epic scale.

Yeah, I was voted "most likely to want to rule the world" by my college buddies. So sue me.

Southpaw

hear, hear!

Senash

Hear my FIREBALL roar!!!

Mornmagor

Two handed and necromancy.

Always with plate.

Always

Montresor_SP

Cast spells from the background and let somebody else take the punishment!

Mordeus

I always go for a ranged character as my main, while preferring my companions to be more complex in their tactics.

atcDave

I've played every style for my main character, except single handed. But I definitely go for dual wielding as my favorite.

Xar105

i like play with two weapons, and make a hero like GANNICUS !!!

Khyron

I more often than not go sword 'n board or two-handed weapons.

But I do prefer a singlehanded weaponstyle.. More out of realism, for backstabb and easy swap to ranged weapon (quick slots).

if we could have sword/shield + bow or two weapons + bow, that would change how i approach the game ENTIRELY. (I -hate- having to go into inventory to swap weapons around.. haaaaate)

Kenji

I believe two weapons should be Dual wield.

But then my thieves never dual wield, they always go short sword and buckler; you only need one precise attack for a backstab, after all.

Not only that, only single-handed weapon and sword and shield have the thrust animation, dual wield looks tedious and unfitting in comparison.

OneAngryMushroom

Who says you can't use a shield as a weapon. Let's see you stand up after getting whacked with a 12 pound chunk of wood

franco

For years I always identified most with strong warriors. But after awhile it started to feel a bit one dimensional, and I began to appreciate the art of wielding magic instead. Little by little it seems I've started to prefer being the quarterback directing traffic and letting the young bucks sweat it out on the front line.

Anaximander

Mostly two-weapon fighting! We are dual weilding flails, axes, long swords, scimitars hmmn hmmn ... I like to throw in a wizard slayer thief using two handed weapon style using Carsomyr now too heh ...

smeagolheart

two weapons are better than one

Drayen

My last bg2 clear was kinda surprising... korgan with a 1h + shield had more kills than sarevok with his 2hander and bigger reach and deathbringer assault... can't undestimate how much you can stay toe-to-toe with an enemy just for having a shield on!

But if it's not sword and shield, its two weapon style baby :O
