Davros -

Disagree all ya like!

But SOME if not a large percentage of the people (judging by the multiple long board discussions regarding death by Mantraps) playing this game are new to the Wizardry series and/or role-playing and TYPICALLY compose a starting party of 3 fighters, 1 thief, 1 priest and 1 wizard. I am NOT new to the Wizardry series OR role-playing games and that was my starting party line-up, too. I did not KNOW (until I found this board) about concentrating on maxing out (asap) stone AND sun spells.....I chose to spread my early spell points around....getting ALL the spells for each level as I went! I didn't even have that WONderful teleport spell until I reached Brimloch Roon. My party was wearing out the soles of their leather or suede boots hiking the Eastern backtrails and swamplands of the Gael Serran. While the rest you sharp-witted, clever players were creating portals, calling home, and teleporting to and fro.......ah, well..........
Thank the stars for this very helpful and friendly Board and for Rick's maps and hints....I take them with me everywhere.....
