What is a good duo?

CHARNAME and one NPC?
How do you solve the small inventory issue?

    The first question has too many good answers. 😜

    Buy a bag for jewels and a bag for scrolls in various shops. 👈

    Fighter/Thief Charname, and Aerie (Cleric/Mage) for npc.. let's you cover every single archetype and utility

    What do you think about a F/M/T plus one or maybe two other party members?
    It doesnt have to be only two members, three would be okay, but CHARNAME should be a powerhouse
    Which two npcs would be worthwile?

    What do you think about F/M/T, Anomen , Mazzy?
    And would you add some arcane caster to them?

    Anomen and Mazzy are solid companions, but Mazzy don't really offer anything your FMT doesn't do already.

    If you wanna keep party size small then try to avoid redundancy.

    F/T + Aerie has zero redundancy.. and M/T + Anomen has zero redundancy, yet both options cover all 4 archetypes.

    imo if you've done enough runs (and have most of the traps remembered or don't mind doing a few reloads) you don't really need a thief.

    I've done a couple of runs with cleric->mage + Dorn (I was dating him, put anyone with fighter HLA here) and it went surprisingly well even on higher difficulties and SCS, given that I already know the general location of lethal traps and important locks.

    My ideal duo would be multiclass fighter/cleric + sorcerer, but we don't have a sorcerer companion. Edwin or Neera could do and if you prefer to be able to deal with locks maybe go with Nalia (and maybe swap Imoen in.) Sorcerer charname + Anomen could work too but I prefer to have some solid melee dmg like great whirlwind.

    If you're doing F/M/T charname... it pretty much stands on its own, you can already solo the game anyway and I say use the companion slot to do everyone's quest.

    Inventory isn't really a thing, just pick your favorite chest in WK and dump all the golem pages and whatsoever there, then pick a favorite barrel in Athkatla and dump all the portal gems and whatsoever in it.
