Neverwinter Nights 2 Hints
Character Development Tips
1 of 5: Unless you're a real split-class addict, never give your main character another class to burden him with, and always increase his most important stats when you get to add to stats. If you do decide to try multiclassing, be sure to read about multiclassing and its possible XP penalties in the "Dungeons and Dragons Concepts" section of the manual, under the "Level" heading. (Note that multiclassing into a prestige class carries no penalties, and is always a good thing to do when you can.)
2 of 5: As in the original NWN release, you actually get more XP by having henchmen with you. If fact, the more you have with you, the more XP you get! So always take as many henchmen as you can along with you when you go adventuring. (Hopefully, they won't "fix" this in a patch like they did with NWN.)
3 of 5: Another XP note is that when you're able to level up, waiting to do so until after you do more combats *won't* get you any more XP. The amount of XP you get for a combat kill is based on what level you could be, not what level you actually are.
4 of 5: Also, companions gain XP as you do (even if they're not with you), so they can always level up to your level.
5 of 5: A useful note about skill points is that if you don't use all of your current allotment when you level up, all unused points (up to 5 max) will be saved over and added in to the total the next time you level up. This can be useful if you have one skill point left and the only thing you want to increase would cost two skill points -- just save the point and wait until you level up again.
