What's with all the badmouthing of Bishops? I chose to specialize mine, and she's got the second most kills of all my characters (second to my mage....gotta love that fireball spell!!)

I'd have to say the ideal party consists of:

-fighter
-fighter
-bard (these guys kick ass!), and can aid with chests 'til your mage has his/her knock-knock skills down
-ranger
-bishop (specialized in two and later three areas)
-mage

The non-fighter melee guys are way-outclassed by true fighters, and thier magic ability never really pays off
Bards are great in W8, as opposed to the previous Wizardry games


Anyway, that's my take on the ideal party. Of course, I learned this the hard way and am still hauling around a near-useless 18th level samurai. Oh well.........
