Dear Scronan,

Mages aren't that powerful???? You're kidding! If not for Liselle, my elven mage, my party would have been toast multiple times. It takes a few casts, but she takes those monsters down. And thank heavens for my Priest's "silence" spell against some of those monsters. I guess it depends which spells you take.

And, yes, I've got Powercast for Liselle, and Iron Will (?) for Wulfgar, my Priest...hopefully those will start kicking in as well. Oh, and Narrh (my Felpurr Bard) got Reflextion, and his AC is skyrocketing...it's at 16 now.

I dunno about the Samurai and Ranger...unless something happens quickly, they're not going to be very effective spellcasters at all. It's certainly not like in the other Wizardries where they became great spellcasters early on. I'm beginning to think this game is one in which the basic roles are far superior to the elite roles: quite possibly, the best group would be one where you had two fighters, a priest, a bard, and two mages...and just stuck with that all the way through. I could be mistaken, though.

Cheers,
