Hi all,

If you don't like to try out party's or if you,like me before this one, already started the game countless times, to give up after a while because something is missing, this is IT.

This is for those who want to go through the game using 'almost' all items and armor there is...
I don't like reloading or practising skills for hours, so this is a non-cheating party.

If you think this party is a lucky shot, think again...
I had a flight Brussels-New York-San Francisco (16hrs) and back the next week, so about 30 hrs to think about the best possible party.
After writing about 75 pages of statistics, itemtables, calculations, party make-up sheets, this is the party I went for...

Lizardman Fighter (f)
Felpurr Bard (f)
Mook Ranger (f)
Human Gadgeteer (m)
Elf Alchemist (f) -> Bishop level2: alchemy and divinity (+wizardry after level 10)
Faerie Mage (m) -> Bishop level2: wizardry + psionics (+divinity after level 10)
+ RPC's to carry all the stuff and enhance melee

I'm not gonna post spoilers on items or armor that boost attribs or skills, but it helps a lot if you know what's out there...
I'm not going into details... hey, u want to figure out how to use them and build them up yourselfs, it would take all the fun out of the game if you just followed me.

A couple of remarks...
Bard: second melee type! Excellent fighter...
Bishops: like I said, I don't spend hrs practising skills, so I have to concentrate on 2 books
Don't use the sides in your formation if you want all chars to melee... just turn away from the enemies until everybody can attack them (=+45° either direction)

It's up to you to build up the attributes and skills, but if you do a good job, this party destroys everything in a couple of rounds.
I finished the game in 1 week (real-time:30-35 hrs / ingame: 17 days) on Normal mode doing everything but the dungeons.

So, if you already started the game a dozen times, giving up halfway because your party is missing something... try this party!

Satisfaction guaranteed... if this party doesn't do it, I'll come over personally

Good luck

Signed, one sick Psycho
