Council decisions

[e11]

I always get decision anxiety with stuff like this: Choices with consequences that will only become clear far down the line. I just wanted to know if I'm potentially laying landmines that will cripple my game in 20 hours, or if it's all more for flavour.

well, there definitely ARE council choices that are significantly better than others. they do usually show you what your choices will give you in the end, but in general choosing offensive over defensive options are your better choice. marksman over rangers, greatsword over shieldbearers, etc. If you want a detailed guide, this is a good one:

fwiw, I found most of the best council choices were those offered by Seelah, Daeran, and Greybore, with Regil and Wenduag close behind. so make sure you set your party up with those characters (if you have them) before doing any council decisions.
