I've been playing IWD for the 1st time and am up to Dorn's Deep. I have a Mage in my party but up untill now, 95% of the time he uses a sling. I rarely have him cast spells. I have two fighters and clerics and one fighter/thief. My mage, to me, is liability. I understand that there are various types of party character configurations, but I don't see any significant reason to have a mage in a party. Perhaps I'm overlooking something vauleable in a mage and if so please inform me.
Thank you for your time
