Ok. I'm Going All Chanters Again.

Story party members are useless in the early game.  

 

They can't even kill boars.  

 

Now I remember that most classes are utter shi- early on in this game.

Well.. chanters start to shine from lvl-9 onward.

 

As for early game: it's time for paladins, fighters, rangers and ciphers to shine.

Anything is fine in the early game as long as you put them in heavy plate armor.  That's what I learned.  

 

However, the Anvil Monk works really well.

well its seems like you want to kill your enemy with 1hit in early game weach is immposible, and if you want an op classe who can do a good damage at the early game you can chose monk or mage they are a little op at the early but you should know that to be more powerfull you need to leveling and searching for items who work good with your classes you can visite this site to know what armor and weapon etc........ you want https://pillarsofeternity.gamepedia.com/Item.

if you want to not die at the early game you can take eder and aloth and late game you can play summoner it really helpfull and viable build.

I've seen people play all chanter parties. But is looks utterly boring.
