nydlari offered up some good advice with the shield. i preferred letting my girl use a sword or a mace in one hand and the shield in the other.
i also don't level her up each level up. instead, i get my first level, then hold off for 3. level up another level, hold off another 3. i feel that i need to do that to properly get my skills working. that way, where i would be level 9, i am actually still level 3, but with all the skills escalating rather nicely.
since i don't beleive that i can be a powerhouse of one, i go for speed. so i have begun pumping those at each level up, by one point each. (with already a fairly high starting int/pie ... rawulf is a good choice for that!) but either way, it's extremely slow going. nothing at all like playing a group of 6 or 8. the only thing i miss, beleive it or not, is the interaction. and of course, having 5 other mates to take the hits for me. LOL!
good luck. and go slow! just when you think you got it down, be the most cautious! because there's someone around the next corner waiting to set you straight on that score. [img]smile.gif[/img]
