What ya'll think of this party? Note: This party will get every class Wiz 8 have offered. And I want to make every char have the reason why they decide to turn into new class. Hope this party will be sucess in Wiz 8. Also, I have to think of race for every class umm.. any suggestion? Maybe I will write some story with this party hehe I like to have fun with game and invent some of cool, funny story.

Sounds good! :D I like your party [img]smile.gif[/img]

it's nice to see someone who likes to give a background to their chars. i do the same, but usually it's all in my head as i go.

i have a question tho, about your Fighter going to a Mage. i don't think they share the same stats, so i an wondering if it can be done?

check out Scronan's info on the basic stats for each type. you might want to double check now on the stat requirements, rather than be disappointed later. of course, i could be misunderstanding how the class changes work, but that wouldn't surprise me! LOL.

:eek: :eek:

I wonder if Slip will be interested in hosting stories from Wizardry 8 like he did from Wizards and Warriors? If not, I may be persuaded to put up a "Wizardry 8 Story Archive" on my domain. :D

Cheers,

Class-switch dont work like wiz 7.. When you switch class.. you wont go back to level 1 and you wont reset the stats to class' requirement like in previous wizardry but you will keep old stats and continue increase stats and level up for example.. level 7 warrior then change class you will class change only when you level up so Level 7 warrior + Level 1 mage = Level 8.. however.. stats does matter but I will put points into stats that requirement to be mage before I switch to other class. So for that reason. I might pick Human since it have average stats points. Hope this clear up some. I will also import my party from wiz 7 hehe I wanna to have Vi in my party. :D But most likely I will start new party 1st then import my party from wiz 7 later.

okay. i guess the demo is misleading then?

from playing the demo i got the impression that, at each level up, a person could only change to a few other classes. and with the limit of 3 points max/per stat/per level-up, it would take 17 Levels to go from a start of "0" to "50" (which is a minimum for most classes).

case in point: the fighter, a lizardman, couldn't change classes to anything else at all, ever.

and the other classes were only given a few other classes to choose from.

but i rarely play humans, so my games tend to be restricted that way. and with this being my first exposure to wizardry, i guess i don't know the ins and outs.

either way, you should definitely write about your experiences. i know i like reading stories about games that i like.
