comprehensive list of all classes and kits (compiling guides for them)

LemernisLemernis Member, Moderator Posts: 4,318
In my ongoing project to create a comprehensive BG1(EE) player resource, I'm about to begin assembling (and perhaps writing) guides for all the classes and kits.

    Any dual class must also be a valid multi-class combination.

    Well, for example a Berserker-Mage is possible as a dual-class option, whereas it is not for multi-class.

    In addition to having the same combo options as a multi, humans can also dual with kits--whereas non-human multis cannot.

    The rules governing this are enough for me to work it out, I think... (myself, I don't like dual-classing, so I'm not very knoweledgable on the subject.)...

    Is the rule for dualing with kits essentially that you can start with any kit and then dual to a (pure) class? You're not allowed to combine kits, I do recall that much.

    Berserker-mage is a legal dual-class because fighter-mage is a legal multi-class. The fact that you're using a fighter kit doesn't matter.

    And if you're going to get technical, gnome multiclasses that involve mages are kit multiclasses, since all gnome mages must be illusionists.

    Thanks!

    So please tell me if I have this right:

    Dual-classing Rules:

    1) Must be human.
    2) All combinations using two classes that are available to non-human mult-classes may be selected, except that dual-classed humans may start with a kit (whereas non-human multi-classes cannot).
    3) Kits may not be combined.
    4) When using a kit, the character must start with a kit and then dual to a pure class.

    Or?

    It's the last one (4) that I'm not entirely sure about.

    gnomes don't have access to triple classes, there will be no fighter Fighter/Illusionist/Clerics or Fighter/Illusionist/Thiefs around. (despite how awesome that would be)

    Lemernis, I don't mean to offend you by saying this, but if you don't know whether #4 is correct or not, then this project is a little too far over your head right now.

    However, in the spirit of being helpful, here's the information you're looking for:

    Barbarian, monk, sorcerer, paladin. In vanilla ToB, the ranger kits Stalker and Archer can't dual class either (though they could in SoA). Also remember that only humans can dual class.

    Valid dual class combinations are the same as valid multi-class combinations.

    You also need 15 in the first class's major attribute(s) and 17 in the second class's major attribute(s). So a fighter can only dual to mage if he has at least 15 STR and 17 INT. The same alignment restrictions that apply if you want to make a class also apply. So a fighter must be true neutral to be able to dual to a druid.

    A fighter may dual class to a cleric, druid, mage or thief. Major attribute is STR.
    A thief may dual class to a fighter, cleric or mage. Major attribute is DEX. To dual to a thief you may not be lawful good.
    A mage may dual class to fighter, cleric or thief. Major attribute is INT.
    A cleric may dual class to fighter, mage, thief or ranger. Major attribute is WIS.
    A druid may dual class to fighter. Major attributes are WIS and CHA. To dual to druid you must have true neutral alignment.
    A ranger may dual class to cleric. Major attributes are STR and DEX. To dual to ranger, you must have any good alignment.

    @Rhyme No offense taken. Actually, I played the game for many years but I'm getting back into it with the release of BG:EE after about a five year hiatus. There are some things about the game that are still a bit hazy in my memory (years ago they would have been secondhand knowledge).

    This is what I have done so far in my project. It's going to take a long time to build it up, and I'll probably have to narrow the focus. It's something that I've always wanted to do with this hobby. If I ever do try to write guides (versus just assembling guides that are out there already), hopefully I'll end up with something a little more thought-provoking than just how to beat the game or create the most uber character.

    Thanks so much for helping out! That saves me a lot of time, although I will still have to go through to test and confirm.

    Apologies that I got a tad lazy asking for answers when I could have just gone in and done some testing. Even so, let me restate that I am hugely, sincerely grateful for any and all assistance here.

    The answer to my own question about rule (4) above is that, yes, the character must start with a kit and dual to a pure class. It can't be done the other way around. And kits may not be combined (legally, that is--with Shadowkeeper that's another story).

    This just in!: the Wild Mage kit may not dual-class, for those who didn't know or, like me, could not remember. ;)

    Okay, I think I have the list accurately compiled--see topic starter. Now to find and link all the guides out there!

    @Lemernis
    Archer/Cleric (dual-class) is not available!
    I think it's because dualling to a Cleric would restrict the Archer from the types of weapons the Devs obviously meant for him to use (the ones he can attain Grand Mastery in).

    Blackguard kit actually has different stat minimums to paladins
    Strength 12
    Constitution 14
    Charisma 14

    Say it isn't so...

    This was going to be my next build.

    Believe it or not, it is available. :) Why anyone would do it is the question. You could choose Sling I guess.
