My point of view was paladins are fighter/clerics as are rangers who are the druids' equivalent,
but when rangers got down from d10 hd to d8 Paladins didn't. This was what i was refering to.
I must admit that rangers can still be one heck of a class if you know how to use them even with the 3.5 changes

Paladins already have major restrictions and are tough to role play correctly. I stop letting my players have paladins for a while 'cause they always ended up as fighters. I also spent too much time preparing 'atonement' quests for players who don't know how to play paladins and keep screwing it up.

I have a question about the warlock class (I ussually always simply play as a sorcerer): you can only be a warlock if you are at least either chaotic or evil or something. As I play, I always shift to Lawful and Good. Will that indeed cause me to suffer penalties someway if that happens with a warlock character?

IIRC; warlocks can be anything non-lawfull. if you shift so far as to become lawfull then you wouldn't be able to advance as a warlock.

It's actually the same for Bards and Barbarians.

As far as I remember from, NWN or BGII, becoming a multiclass character precludes you to obtain higher levels in the class you started out with, is that still the case? What would be a disadvantage to become a lvl2 of everything (as a matter of speaking?)

alright, me try to explain in just a few lines.
1) CL/ECL (character level/Effective character level) is different from class level. thus a ftr5/rog5 is CL 10 although his max class level is 5th. Base attack, saving throws, HD, and skill will stack together. spell levels and effective caster levels will not.
2) Wiz/Sor, Clerics/druids, warlocks don't multiclass well. a ftr5/wiz5 is CL 10 but casts spells like a 5th level wizard.
3) most races have a favored class. all other classes obtained must be within a couple levels of the favored class or you gain an XP penalty.
an elf wiz5/thief5/fighter 2 is gonna have a penalty until he gets his fighter class up to lvl 4.
for humans and half-elves; thier favorite class is the class they have the most levels in.
(exception, prestige classes do not count against your favored class).

back to your question. a bard2/barb2/druid2/clr2/ftr2/rng2/pal2/thf2/monk2/wiz2/sor2 (technically impossible with alignment restrictions) is gonna be a really weak 22th level character, especially when it comes to magic. the char will be a reasonably good warrior, but not as good a non-multiclassed fighter. you will end up with an epic level char that can cast a small bunch of 1st level spells.

Thanks llc. If I ever create a character again I'll probably simply go for a fighter. I alwaysd find it hard to select the right spells for instance and typically choose to bash enemies with a flaming mace anyway . Probably better for me to have a sorcerer/wizard as companion and let them decide what is best to cast.

I played a dual-wielding drow fighter I think.

OK, so I finished the game. Has been fun although I disliked a certain something of the end. I played a good lawful charachter because, well, that's just who I am. I am wondering about the end if one plays an evil charachter. Does anyone have a saved game near the end with an evil character I could use? Don;t feel like playing the game again and I simply know I can not play an evil character all the way.

I think I do, I'll check when I get home from school.

[Mehen]

I'll check friday, my brothers PSU failed so my computer is on loan till then

[Umfriend]

Kewl! Thx.

[Mehen]

got my computer back (actually yesterday, but yesterday twas drinkin...) looking through my characters to find the evil one

[Mehen]

seem to have lost all my save games, mustve been last time I formatted, funny because I thought I had em backed up...

I'll let you know if I find em.

I'm pretty sure it must be possible to simply lvl-up and get near to the end scene via the console but I have no clue how to do that.
