EE Keeper to make barb/druid multi

Hello all,

I'm starting a second playthrough of BG-EE, and want to recreate my favorite, old-school, pen and paper DnD character, a barbarian/druid half-orc (the late, great, Tchingin Seteg Torombataar). I have EE Keeper and can make minor changes easily enough, but don't see how to make my barb (now level 4) go multi. Any help?

    I've never tried it, but I'm pretty sure you can't make a single class into a multi in 'Keeper. From what I've read here, the best way is to make a character that's as close as possible, then make the changes. So, maybe start as a half-elf fighter/druid, then use keeper to change to barb and half orc. You'd also have to fiddle with abilities and such, because those changes won't get made automatically.

    I see. What about dual classing? (I know half-orcs aren't supposed to be able to, but I don't really care.) I see a button for dual class, but it didn't seem to change anything when I clicked it and set druid as the other class.

    You might want to check out the upcoming mod Faiths and Powers by @subtledoctor and @Grammarsalad as it might have something close to what you're looking for. "Mod" seems like an understatement, more like an overhaul

    It should be possible to change your Half-Orc into a Barbarian/Druid multi-class character, since the Barbarian is technically a Fighter kit. I have only little experience with EE Keeper, but maybe @Troodon80 can help you out.

    @subtledoctor is correct. It's not going to be doable using Keeper out of the box. You will need a mod to begin with (what mod you pick is entirely up to you). After that, it should be easy to change.

    Thanks for the help. Question: What mod does this for BG1EE? And do I have to restart the game? Or is it possible to do this with my existing barb (who's level 4 and I've become attached to).

    Appreciate the advice!

    The question has been answered, but I can concur on @subtledoctor 's way of doing it. I've done it with a dwarf barbarian/cleric (innate DR+AoF ftw!) which tecnically is done the same way as your halforc barb/druid.

    (misspelled bard/druid first, hehe.. now that would have been a killer multiclass!)

    I will look around on the BG2Tweeks website, but do you know if it works with the Android version of the game?

    Barb/druid is a great and very flavorful multiclass. Many fun nights tearing it up back in my pen and paper days.
