There is really no canonically correct party for either Dungeon Siege 1 or Dungeon Siege 2. Some people play with all mages, some play with all ranged or melee. Lots of us play with mixed parties. I find that it is useful when playing Dungeon Siege 2 that I have two rangers, two melee fighters and one each combat and nature mage. When playing Dungeon Siege 1 I tend to use a mixed party where each member has two primary skills. So with a full party of eight I would have 8 rangers with this mix of secondary skills, 3 Combat Mages, 3 Nature Mages and 2 melee fighters. I tend to lean toward Rangers as I have made custom bows for both DS1 and DS2.

My advise is just go with whatever mix of party members suits your taste. You will find that some maps are better for one party mix whereas another might not.
