Can someone point me to a chart of how often various classes gain
proficiencies? I'm trying to decide whether to dual class my fighter into
a thief at 5th level, for a 5/8, or at 6th level, for a 6/7, and the point
where I can get high mastery for bows will probably be the deciding point.
Also, in case anyone wants to throw out their two cents on party
structures, how does a good-aligned party sound of...

Ren Ravenslock (Fighter/Thief, dual classed human, chaotic good)
Minsc (Ranger)
Dynaheir (Invoker)
Kivan (Ranger)
Branwen (Cleric)
Ajantis (Paladin)

It's a little light on healing, but my high proficiency on bows, along
with Kivan's bow, a +1 sling on Branwen, and a +1 sling and spells from
Dynaheir, should give this party a solid long-range punch.

RCV: From PnP, but I think it applies to BG too... :)

Warrior: 1 every 3d lvls [3d, 6th, 9th, etc]
Wizard: 1 every 6 lvls [6th, 12th, 18th, etc]
Priest: 1 every 4 lvls [4th, 8th, 12th, etc]
Rogue: 1 every 4 lvls [as above]

Multi class get them based on their most favorable class, ftr/MU uses
the fighter column, Cl/MU the Cleric column, etc.

The manual is (as far as I can see) completely useless here, stating:

"As a character reaches higher experience levels, he also earns additional
weapon proficiency points that can be assigned. The rate at which
proficiencies are gained depends on the character's class. Warriors...gain
weapon proficiencies quickly. Wizards...gain additional weapon proficiencies
slowly."

Helpful eh?

Group/Initial/gains 1 every X levels
Warrior/4/3
Wizard/1/6
Priest/2/4
Rouge/2/4
