2E -> 3.5E character conversions
I'm having a little trouble with converting fighter/cleric/magic-users to 3.5. Cleric/Magic-users become mystic theurges, but any ideas on how to make a viable character that fights well and uses arcane and divine magic? Bard, I guess, but it has totally different flavor and a whole suite of abilities that don't match.

Maybe straight cleric with the magic or spell domains?

Maybe an Eldritch Knight/Mystic Theurge combo of some sort?

Cleric/Wizard/Mystic Theurge. Cast Divine Power/Righteous Might.

Re: 2E -> 3.5E character conversions
As above, drawing upon Cleric's improved combat capabilities to cover the Fighter-part by just being a particularly militant Cleric is a good idea. And a Cleric with spontaneous Spell-domain really has a great access to Wizard-stuff (maybe take Magic-domain too to use Wizard-items).
Alternatively, you could try a Fochlucan Lyrist [CAdv]. Better have Fractional BABs for that tho. And it's designed for Druid/Bard/Rogue. But with some work, you could bend it into Cleric/Wizard/Fighter (it has full BAB).Last edited by Eldariel; 2010-01-07 at 01:14 PM.

Re: 2E -> 3.5E character conversions
It's nearly impossible to transfer multiclassed characters from 2E to 3E. The closest combination is probably a gestalt cleric/wizard.

Re: 2E -> 3.5E character conversions
As a general rule, Cleric and Rogue can cover any archetype.
I'd support Kylarra's suggestion.
In this case, I'd also recommend putting your first level into Barbarian, Fighter, Monk, Paladin or Ranger (which depends on the character) for the proficiencies and basic combat abilities for low-level play.
