in Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition
Was thinking about

F/M/T Crossbow and Longswords
Ranger/Cleric Sling and dual wielding blunt weapons
Archer Longbow
Dwarven Defender Axe Hammer , later dual wield

What do you think about this party or what would you change?

    Obviously IWD is made for this sort of experimenting. I think melee is a huge part of this game, so the most obvious thing is two warriors (any sort) backed by a cleric and a mage/thief.
    That said, I think my favorite four character team was a Paladin/Undead Hunter and a fighter/cleric for melee. Backed by a Bard and a Fighter/Mage/Thief. That actually started as a three character team (without the Bard), but I found just the three sort of boring.
    And really, I generally find a full six more interesting.

    I find a party of 4 quite hard to balance (I prefer a party of 3 or 5).

    I'd probably go with:

    1) Fighter/druid
    2) Dwarven defender
    3) Mage/thief (or fighter/thief, if you like melee)
    4) Mage/cleric

    I really enjoy having a sorceror in my party, but I can't really justify them a place in a party of 4.
