I'm going to try something different for a change while I'm out of town. From the following list of PrCs I'd like to hear what the top 5 are from people. The 5 most popular base classes/prcs along with 2-3 I pick will be the prcs I start adding for 1.33 (along with finishing the Forest Master) when I get back from Vegas. This nwn2customcontent.wikidot.com/forum/t-59638/prc-and-base-class-hitlist thread has a lot of short, detailed descriptions and links to some of the full descriptions. The upcoming prc page nwn2customcontent.wikidot.com/prc also has short descriptions for the classes. * Bonded Summoner * Bone Knight * Celestial Mystic * Celestial Paragon * Champion of Corellon Larethian * Champion of Gwynharwyf * Champion of the Silver Flame * Combat Medic * Daggerspell Shaper * Dark Lantern * Deepwarden * Defender of Sealtiel * Dervish * Dirgesinger * Divine Trickster * Dragon Samurai * Divine Emissary * Doomguide * Dragon Lord * Eldritch Spirit (custom Warlock prc) * Elemental Archon * Elemental Warrior * Eye of Lolth * Fist of Raziel * Frost Mage * Gray Guard * Hammer of Moradin * Heartwarder * Knight of the Chalice * Knight Phantom * Marshal (Base Class) * Master of Shrouds * Morninglord of Lathander * Mystic Wanderer * Nature's Warrior * Night Cloak * Runescarred Berserker * Seeker of the Song * Sentinel of Bharrai * Shadowbane Inquisitor * Shadowbane Stalker * Silverstar * Skullclan Hunter * Slayer of Domiel * Songblade (custom Bard prc) * Stormcaster * Swashbuckler (Base Class) * Talontar Blightlord * Thug (Base Class) * Triadic Knight * War Chanter * Warlord of Utterdark * Werewolf (racial prc) |

I take it that you can make base classes? Interesting. If I may so request can we get a summoner base class? You want to know what that is, I can explain it to you in a different thread if you so care.
For my five choices I will go with
1. Bonded Summoner (Will go good if we can get a summoner base class)
2. Eldritch Spirit (We do need a Warlock PRC, seriously, a few warlock PRCs would do fine)
3. Elemental Archer
4. Elemental Warrior
5. Stormcaster
I would say Swashbuckler but that is a base class. It would be nice if we could get base class additions but I understand life is busy and there are much other things to do than Neverwinter Nights 2 debugging, programming, modding, etc.. On a second note another good base class would be an elementalist. You can choose your elemental power such as Ice, Fire, Lightning, Acid, etc...

I am most excited about Nature's Warrior and Elemental Archer. You should make a poll either here or on your website.... maybe you have I haven't looked on yours lately.
Good luck in Vegas! I hope you win infinite free time.

Elemental Archer is coming in 1.32.3 tomorrow night (wednesday at the latest) so I'd change your votes on that one.  Base classes are doable but at the present time a PW player can't choose them for their first character level. You could multiclass into them later though which is why I've avoid them so far. Which base class is a summoner? If it has a spellbook its a no-go unless it's a VERY limited spellbook (like Assassin, Blackguard, etc). |

There is a workaround to this actually. If the player installs the single player version, they can take anything they want for their first level, then play as normal on the PW. |

There is a workaround to this actually. If the player installs the single player version, they can take anything they want for their first level, then play as normal on the PW. This sounds interesting. Ack! The flood gates of chaos, so many choices! There is an advantage to keeping everything in packages according to class. You don't suffer so much from "d**n! It's too late to fit that into my character build but it's perfect for it." [01] Dagger Spell Shaper [02] Nature's Warrior [03] Divine Trickster(Surprised it's not on the list.) Druids have to stop sucking and now's the time. Dagger Spell Shaper cures one of the Druids biggest problems, namely, wildshape is a magic item debuff, plus gives some SA flavor. Nature's Warrior works on the other problem, low AB and lagging AC. Divine Trickster is as close to Epic levels for DSS as it gets and works for all the other divine classes. Got to have these to complete the Druid package with all the other Druid goodies planned for this release so that Druids can finally stop sucking. [04] Champion of Gwynharwyf [05] Runescarred Berserker To cure Barbarians of the dreaded I_AM_A_SUCKY_CLASS_2 disease and to go with the barb feats planned for this release. I would love to have Enlightened Spirit to fix sucky class number three, but, I think it should come with all the planned invocations. My next five choices: [01] Phantom Knight As virtual epic levels for EK, cheap and cheerful. [02] Hammer of Moradin [03] Deep Warden Because Dwarves are cool and they deserve to be cooler and nothing is cooler than Stone Warden, Powerful Grip, Quake, and the rest of it. Then, Dwarves will be complete. [04] Thug [05] Swashbuckler Well, what other two classes complete a theme? |

0 Forest Master 1 Eldritch Spirit 2 Bone Knight 3 Frost Mage 4 Swashbuckler 5 Dervish In that order. I included FM at 0 since its 75% done and should be complete when 1.33 is released  |

Doesn't seem to be a lot of consensus... I wonder if this thread is actually helping. I agree with NTB, Druids and barbarians are pretty terrible. PRCs that help the weakest classes first probably makes the most sense.
To change my elemental archer vote, I would like some other class that makes a useful ranged weapon build. Halfling Slinger?
Pretty much completely off topic, but if you can make a race that is drow female (same as existing except favored class cleric) that would rock. Then we could rebuild the Valsharess.

Halfling slinger isn't on the list. I'm using this as a source, the Winterhaven PW, my page, and the bioware forums to collate a total next week. It's all useful. The problem with a new drow subrace that is cleric favored is that it can't be locked to female or male. Which means you could take either. |

I should make a female drow wizard just for the wrongness of it...
So if I could get 4 votes by posting in each? Hmm... If I was truly determined.
Can I change my vote to "Do the easiest ones first."? I guess I really do want Nature's Warrior though. Can I vote for that 5 times? Why do I ask so many rhetorical questions?
Looking forward to whatever gets picked.

I haven't tallied the results here, or anywhere else. But, the outcome on the vault seems to be much different from my informal observations of how ppl are voting in the forums. So, please visit the vault and vote there in addition to here.
Yeah, that sucks that we don't get all the options on the vault poll. Not sure it should be considered anything more than an exercise in curiosity.
f**king Dragon Lord, who the hell votes for such a class? EEEEEEEEEEEEEe it's a dragon lord, ooooeeeeee........
