My watcher is a pure class cipher that uses Frostseeker. My party order has them in the 4th slot and they also stand in the back line on the map. I do not use stealth to start fights as the ranged characters attack before melee characters which means they get all the attention. This might be your problem. Even in scripted events like the dragon with the xaurips the aggro is spread pretty evenly around my party. Then again my watcher always charms as my first action so I tend to turn the tide of battle quickly so I may not be a good example. Are you starting the scripted events and just letting your party do whatever they want, or are you pausing the game and giving out specific commands to each member?

This is for the original poster. While this build works great once it is leveled up and geared; how does it work starting off on a solo run? You will not be putting out all the crazy fire damage. Can it still survive long enough to finish encounters?

If you haven't already picked the class for Tekehu then make him a druid/chanter. He some good healing and damage that way and for my play through was adequately tanky with my gear selection.

I've restarted so many times and deleted so many games that I have literally lost count. On my current play (none of which have gone past level 10) I am having the most fun with a single class and having most of the NPCs go single class as well. The multiclass options are great, but I'm really liking having my abiliies quicker and hopefully I'll get to end game this time and use those PL 8/9 abilities. Maybe the multiclass options are just giving us altaholics too many choices.
