3. The advantage of Bards and Gadgeteers is that their instruments or gadgets usually cast spells 1 to 3 levels higher than your spell casters can at early levels. Also the Gadgeteer has his Omnigun which at higher levels rocks. Granted Gadgeteers are weak at the beginning although it seems all the best classes for the late game are slow to start.
5. The Arnika road can be one of the most difficult areas in the game. If I were playing Iron Man I would hug the cliffs and either run or hide until I get to Arnika. There are many nooks along the cliff where you can hide and let the monsters pass you by. If you do get into combat give a run orders until the monsters give up.
