    I made a Half-Orc warrior thinking to do 4 levels for fighter for the 3 stars in Great swords then switching over to Barbarian, but when I had 4 levels in Fighter and next level I tried to do Barbarian, I can't do it. It isn't highlighted. Something I do wrong?

    My half-orc started with stats of: Strength 20, Dex 18, con 18, int 1, wisdom 16, cha 1. Something not meet a barbarian requirement?

    It's most likely an alignment restriction. Barbarians cannot be a lawful alignment.

    That's rough. I played the same exact character (of the proper alignment of course) and she rocked.

    I suppose you could change that character's alignment using Dale Keeper 2. I haven't used it though, so I'm not 100% sure if that'll work. Plus from what I can see, Dale Keeper 2 is still in it's beta phase. Anyway you can grab it through the link below if you wish to test it out. At your own risk of course.

    I used it DK2 because I accidentally selected the wrong feats for my wizard at the start of the game. My game has been going smoothly without a hitch so far.

    I can't see alignment change as being a problem.

    I had some problems with characters too...
    If you wanna change your character, I just check my recordscreen to see how much XP he has, say 10034 for example
    Then delete the char, creating a lvl 1 char in the party (the new character you want corrected), now use the console and type:
    ctrlaltdelete:setcurrentxp(10034)

    Now you got the character right back where you want it with the corrections made

    Anyway single class fighter *is* fine, okay no rage, but a lot more feat. Same BAB same SAVING same Weap Profiencies, he'll be fine.

    A single class Fighter is just fine, but Barbarian levels are advantageous. More hit points, rage, Uncanny Dodges.. Good stuff, really. That said, I found myself taking more Fighter levels for my Fighter/Barbarian than Barbarian as the character needed the feats.

    Not...
    If you're multiclassing you must level him up multiple times...if you gain 10 levels in one time, you can only put all of them in one class.
    So this isn't for multiclassing.

    But you knew this, sorry :) , otherwise you wouldn't asked the question...
