Always always always have 2 healers... That way, if level drained, you can undrain them selves... or raise eachother to keep party from having to run back to temple all the time. lol get aerie... Use her for a 2nd cleric and a 2nd mage. I've always liked her teamed up with Viconia. Aerie ain't a great mage though, so if you are one, you should be okay on that front.
lol I never use jah, she stinks up the room! Khalid I keep, jah never. I was ticked off when the killed him off and kept her. Sheesh! I'd rather have a so-so fighter over a bad fighter and a poor druid.... Maybe I'm just crazy though.
