Hi,
I'm a beginner to Pillars of Eternity, although I've played lots of dnd-based games in the past (Icewind Dale 2, all of NWN games), so I'm not entirely inexperienced. Playing on normal difficulty, some time into the game, I'm totally enjoying it. Currently I'm on level 5 with my main character and 4 with most adventurers.
I'm doing a custom party without any premade companions, i.e. main character and adventurers. I have five-man party and I'm going to add the final team member, but I have no idea which class to choose.
So far my party is:
Druid (main) - nuker - built with high Intelligence, Might and a bit extra Resolve, with her Wildshape she is fairly effective on front line in trash fights, in bigger fights she mostly casts.
Fighter - tank - 100% tank with maxed Constitution and Resolve, works wonders as a tank, but lacks any offense whatsoever.
Rogue - the opposite of the fighter, pure dps. The Rogue has balanced Might/Dexterity/Perception and prefers melee. Excels in eliminating key enemy targets (such as magicians) quickly, but can't take a punch.
Priest - healer - balanced Might/Dexterity/Intelligence - currently feels like the weakest team member because of limited amount of healing spells available - I've lost one fight (the one from bounty hunter against xiatls in Valenwood), simply because the Priest ran out of healing spells and couldn't keep the Fighter up any longer.
Cipher - nuker/crowd control - Might/Dexterity/Intelligence (maxed) based, I'm very happy with this one - the class is extremely fun to play
The point now is that I have no idea which class to add as the sixth team member. On one hand something tough would be useful, as now it feels like the Fighter is the only one able to take a beating, on the other hand it feels like a bit more dps also couldn't hurt. I'm thinking either a Paladin or a Monk, but I'm far from certain (I didn't read any spoilers, so I have no idea what's in store for future fights) and that's why I'd like to ask here for help.
Thanks in advance
