ToEE is like eating a delicious pie, while some asshole smacks you on the head when you least expect it and pisses all over you. It's a blast to play, but the glitches and crashes will give you headaches and make you wonder if it's worth getting pissed on.
How can something so good cause so much grief?

The crashes are a pain, and why I never finished this one.

What crashes? I never had any problems with that.

Well, in my case it was late-game after doing a bunch of item crafting.
The game would crash on save, and I could never figure out which item was causing the problem...because I crafted and equipped like 20 of them.
It was quite a while ago so I don't remember the details, but it was a crafted item crashing my game, and my backup before that was -15 hours so I ragequit.

Avoid quick save and console and there are no crashes.

But quicksave is my most powerful spell

Use normal saves
I had the same problem as Gregz, though I read C8 forums and avoided qsaves like plague, only used regular ones. Still near the end of the game most of my saves became corrupted and game crashed again.. and again.. and again.. it could also be Teleport spell IMO.

Party suggestions: 2 fighters (example: a barbarian and a monk; a fighter and a paladin) druid &\or cleric, sorcerer &\ or wizard.
Paladins are amazing. Perhaps a paladin, dual wield human fighter, druid, sorcerer and wizard. Wizard could be level 1 rogue and 9 wizard. Needs to be 18 int and 18 dex though.

More than two dedicated arcane or divine spellcasters can be over powered in TOEE, even in the new content up through the 6.0s. If you really want to have more than one, consider doing a ranger or a bard. Even then, I usually multiclass my primary arcane spellcaster, usually rogue/wizard or rogue/sorcerer, with the CHA to be party leader. (I see the poster above recommends the same)
I would envy a barbarian party playthrough--barbarian, druid, ranger, and rogue/sorcerer all of chaotic neutral alignment. Use some exotic weapons, get stuck with that cleaver wielding killjoy, LARP like mad.
Fuck, that's what I'm going to do when I download the new patch.

I mean if you like being able to do use your charisma to hit/attack twice a day and heal a rather small number of hitpoints. In exchange, you get immunity to fear (I can recall a total of one enemy that actually uses it, and excluding random encounters, there is one wailing banshee in the game, and it's at a point you can curbstomp it), detect evil (the only thing you are expected to fight that isn't evil are animals and the construct for the water temple), spells that aren't worth the action, diplomacy, except you can't use the most useful options without falling and uh cha to saves, which means the class does nothing after level 2.
In exchange, you miss out on some cool party members, and you can't even get the full power of the best weapon in the game.
CG Barb/fighter/Ranger (2 at 1, rest of the levels in barb or ranger) that specializes in tripping untill you can full PA with one of the swords is as good as melee gets in ToEE.

Well you don't need to get the best weapons because you have a paladin. Also nobody wants the gay evil monk that betrays you or moat cleric guy. Playing paladin isn't restrictive at all.
So you're saying the drawback of being a paladin is you don't get to take part in the majestic drinking contest and you don't get to use cloud's sword?
Who cares?
Comparing strictly class wise he is OP, imo.
With the prolonged drought of good RPGs, and RPGs in general, I will give TOEE with CO8 mod a playthrough after another replay of Mutants Rising demo. Too bad that there is no "skip Homlet" mod. Or is there?

Co8 NC is effectively a skip Hommlet mod. Ask around, you'll get a dungeon scaled for level 1 characters and you don't have to do Hommlet if you don't feel like it. Won't stop you, if you like Hommlet though.
Also, too lazy to link to where I said it before, but you could always be a man and just do Emridy Meadows without Hommlet quests or the Co8 NC dungeon.

Still, a proper "press a button and wipe Hommlet of the map completely" mod would be Awesome (TM)

Wait, really? Bros, reply fast please, because I'm installing TOEE right now and don't want to infest my game with some anime crap.
