Topic	Where to spend my next proficiency points as a Fighter/Mage in Baldurs Gate II?
Esrac 11/03/19 2:00:32 PM #5:	If you're dual wielding and already have points in Scimitar, then your best choices will largely depend on your party. There are so many good magical weapons in BG2 that you'll want to spread them around your party. Here are some good options for different weapon types: Flail Flail of Ages Defender of Easthaven Icestar Axe Frostreaver Stonefire Azuredge Axe of the Unyielding Bastard Sword Jhor the Bleeder Foebane Scimitar Belm Spectral Brand Usuno's Blade Long Sword Daystar Flame Tongue Blackrazor Adjatha the Drinker Angurvadal The Equalizer Club Gnasher Blackblood Mace Mace of Disruption Storm Star Warhammer Crom Faeyr Dwarven Thrower Katana Celestial Fury Dak'kon's Zerth Blade Some are, obviously, better than others and some work better in your offhand than mainhand. For example, Belm works best in your offhand, because it gives your mainhand weapon +1 attack per round. So, you can put a stronger weapon in your main hand, like Flail of Ages or Celestial Fury, and give it an extra swing. Crom Faeyr is a similar case, for the 25 Strength. Defender of Easthaven too, because it gives you +1 AC and 20% resistance to slashing, blunt, and piercing damage. You, as a Fighter/Mage may be interested in Dak'kon's Zerth Blade, because it gives you +1 AC and +1 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th level mage spells. So, that could be an extra Chromatic Orb, Melf's Acid Arrow, Slow, and Greater Malison. Weapons like Foebane, Celestial Fury, Flail of Ages, etc are more geared toward main hand. <cite>Esrac posted [p:929610738] in Where to s...
