Well I have gotten as far as I ever have in this game (have played it alot in the past but with chronic restart syndrome). I am just about done with level 3 of Dragon's Eye now, have what I think is the strongest party I've ever made. Problem is the most challenging thing has been the pathfinding! My characters, especially the Bard (probably because he's in the 6th slot) keep making the most stupid path decisions, going through traps left and right (have had to raise the Bard twice already in Dragon's Eye). And I find myself doing alot of micromanagement just to keep them from taking crazy routes. I wish this was something someone had mod'ed - something like "sticky" pathfinding where the whole party always sticks together as close as possible as they walk from place to place. Otherwise tho I've had alot of fun and think I will probably go to the end this time. I guess it would be better if I had a small party but still, it just doesn't seem the algorithm should be this bad for 6 guys.
