Pillars 1 was more than a bit of a mess. Pillars 2 I love. It has problems on console but I love it despite them. It is a badass fucking pirate RPG sim at the least lol.

Unlike BG3 DOS2 is undeniably better playing as an origin character. They tell you their default classes when you recruit them for first time. Larian games are easy enough that you don't have to min max at all, just do what you like and you'll have a smooth time regardless of difficultly
Guessing you played BG3 and wanted to check out Larian's other stuff? I always had Beast as summoner whenever I used him. He's a battlemage by default so summoner isn't too far off really. Summoner is also REALLY REALLY good, even without the gift pack mod buff. Since summoner stuff only relies on your skill points and not attributes you can basically dump intelligence for constitution/strength/memory if you need it too. Faster movement is basically necessary to me too, I've sunk so many hundreds of hours in that game and missing so many trophies just because it feels so slow without it.
Should try pillars 2, they have user programmable AI for your companions so you don't have to micromanage
