- Elminster has only one fighter level. That awful powerbuilder. He also got to do it with a hot God chick named Mystra....bastard.

No, Elminster does not have bard levels, but he does have Cleric levels with the Earth and Time Domains. (And while being cleric of Mystra to boot.)

Well, I know I'am a little out of place here but I couldn't find a topic to direct my questions to. Shortly, I've played almost every dnd based Pc Rpg there is, but I don't get the thing about multiclassing, except the fact that you have to multiclass according to the new dnd rules to be able to choose a prestige class. That's prolly because I've never played actual dnd before and it's kindda tricky to choose between the mountain of classes and skills to get the desired character. Anyways, it's obvious i'm a nab and I don't wanna screw up by leveling a character and starting all over again because my build was insufficient. I'd like to ask for some advise on the matter from you guys.. I used to play nwn as a ranger with a couple levels of wizard to be able to take the AA class, but obviously this build is garbage from what I see up here. So maybe you could point me a ranged build I could follow and wouldn't be out of the rules? My sincerest appologies for being a total noob and quite off-topic, any help welcome

The build it self is "rubbish" for one reason. Its the ranged part. Ranged combat in NWN2 got a serious blow when most things you fight have large amounts of HP, they are fast, or their DR is higher than you can dish out with an arrow. They have since then tried to counter this problem by making weapon enchantments work the same on bows. The only issue with this is it doesnt come into effect until SoZ is implemented. HOWEVER that being said, I do have SoZ installed on my machine, and I made a bow with the enchantments SoZ makes available. Im just waiting on those items to be in the DM client so I can see if it works or not in the server prior to SoZ being implemented.
If it works, you can go back to your AA build and be a happy person, if it doesnt.. you may want to look at becoming a melee or magic build.

here are is a list of ranged builds from the nwn2 wiki: nwn2.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Ranged_Character_buildsjust keep in mind 3 things: 1). NO RDD! 2). At least 3 levels in each class pre-20th level! 3). Fun is more important than being able to murder everything instantly!
