About that thread > If you mean mage dueler only I don't think there is something to say anymore . Most current build are 38 sorc 1 pal 1 monk and 39 wiz  1 monk .

You can be somewhere original but it would be difficult .

If you mean trying to do some ... allround like mage you can do something with that thread . Giving some advice to people that want and etc but mage dueler only is .... easy to create ( yknow what I mean ) .

Best class for dueling when it comes to mages it's the wizard. The sorceror is weaker because he needs intelligence for his skills, whereas the wizard doesn't need any cha at all.

A bit difficult to get good AC with that because you won't get any shield . But that can work vs archer ( difficult to build though ) .

Mage/hider is about the worse to duel. 90ac/700-800hp/30+str/50+ab/80+spellmantles/26caster/uncanny/120+concentrate/combatcasting/epicspells

If used right, there isn't much that beats it. Thing that do beat it is a ranged 50+sr monk with 80ac, with uncanny or 110+spot.

This isn't exact a good build to do mage duels with either, it wins but hiding to avoid spells isn't something common for mage duels. You always can melee a pure mage vs mage with 50 ab, deals 80+ damage anyway. But I don't think you'll get much mages duels if you do that :P

If you want to make a living fortress you best make a 88+ac sr monk/2sd/1wiz with 120hide or so, can resist spells, has high ac/dam, and can use hips too. Bit more wizard allows dispels as extra, pretty good against buffers.

Those builds are about the strongest, but "best", I don't think that does exist in nwn, just like there isn't a "best" player.

Mages usually use shields for ac, which means you can't use deflect arrows.

Agree. To use deflect arrows and still having good ac you need enough wisdom. It's way cheaper to get stilled spells and useing heavy armor/shield and spare statpoints for constitution so you can get high hp/concentrate. Things a mage needs.

It's, you lose the duel before you started. Well that's boring yes.

Best duels are still againts poeple with a build that can make a close fight to you.

well mage hiders don't really work now do they? I mean since you can't cast and hide within one round.

Well, you mantle and when the other want to dispel you hide and dispel your opponent. If you move a bit on top of it you can be pretty nasty with that, and win a load of time.

All I can say, it works. Any mage I dueled was way easyer with that hider than with a normal mage. Mages it beats include (but isn't limited to :P) talon, maxou, kristie. Maybe I never beat them with a normal one.

Still a hider/monk that's well made is immortal to that mage.

Your only immortal when you have a range wep. Every mage hates to see a sling or darts or a bow etc. Becuase the shilds are useless and you really don't need to go multi-class with sorc or wizards.
I can make a really good lvl40 wizard. I don't need ab or "high" ac
anykind of mage is ment to focase on Spells and nothing more.
