Hello Mortification & Snoekie,
I just started (I'm still futzing around Valeia) so take my words with a grain of salt ... This is what I did: I created a whatever party, and played around Valeia until I got the hang of the game (of course I did not read the manual!); I read a lot of the messages in the forum, and following some of the links given (this is the discovery part I really enjoy). Then I restarted (and not knowing how, see above, I ended up deleting the WW directory and re-installing ... twice)and created the following party, based on what I read. They all have stats between 70-80, and are able to change roles from the beginning: One lizzord barbarian; two Whiskhas paladins; one elf warlock and one oomphaz warlock. The final member is either another Lizzord barbarian or another elf warlock - I have both, and can't decide! The reason for the many warlocks is that in all RPG games I have played I go for bow/arrow, but in this game this is not a very good option - and wizzzards (sic) have lovely long distance spells...
What do you think? Mind you, I agree with others who say one should not spend too much time on the initial party, the objective is to have fun ... but for me this IS part of the fun!
