this is my first post but i felt i had to reply, this guy playing through bg2 first time and wants the rockin' party. know this- edwin is the only dedicated mage npc. and therefore the ONLY shot you have at high-level spells in a timely fashion in bg2 w/o playing a dedicated mage yourself.
i thought jaheira was top notch through the first 3/5ths but started really lagging behind my party later, had to leave her at the altar.
Viconia is the only dedicated cleric npc and some of her high-level spells are wicked combat spells, but same deal edwin and viconia MUCH quicker access to high level spells than all the other *dual*-classed npcs.
Dont overlook Keldorn he's the only paladin npc and therefore your only shot at weilding probably the baddest sword in the game HOLY AVENGER +5 i thought Anomen should have qualified TO weild the avengerafter passing knighthood trials, but alas
