50th Solo...whom do I make?

    Meh...I got bored of the Wizardslayer before he could even hit lvl 13.

    I don't think a melee class can hold enough interest for me... :(

    Any other recommendations?

    They remain invisible while singing.
    Due to the mods I have installed many fights have become extremely challenging - like storming the Shadow Thieves stronghold and killing Aran Linvail. Without some of those mods the Jester's song was little more than luxury. Now it has become too valuable not to use as often as possible. I send my invisible Jester in to soften the enemies up and draw attention from my tanks. Quite useful. He could also finish some encounters by singing alone given time... but what a waist of xp that would be.

    @ Faraaz
    Being restricted to melee would bore me silly real quick, too. Same for pure magical fighting. I enjoy Avengers a lot but at some point the constant spellcasting loses its appeal. Thats why I like bards so much. The multitude of their abilities carries me through to the end of ToB.
    But perhaps you just need a little time without playing BG2? ;) At least that helps me to enjoy the game again.

    @Dendri: I've been playing it on and off for ages now...and after I crossed the 20 mark, I've just been keeping track of stuff, is all... :D

    Well...I've just started another character, solo multiclassed Mage/Cleric...I know its very powerful...but they get to be great fun as well... :D

    Hope that goes well...also, an important question...

    What level do Fighters with Grandmastery in a weapon need to have to get 5 attacks?

    I think it's level 13, though not certain.
    And when you say 5 attacks, I assume you mean 4 attacks with main hand (3 normally + 1 from offhand item of Belm or Kundane) + 1 from offhand.
