Ok, I wiped my HD recently and wizardry 8 was the first thing I reinstalled. I wanted to go with a new party formation this time as the last party I had was a little lopsided. My fighter killed everything and didn't leave alot in range for the rest to hit. Anyways, I plan on sticking my lizard fighter out front, dual wielding swords and maces and using a shield on the big guys in the beginning. In the middle I have a ranger, gadgeteer, and ninja shooting everything in sight. In the back is a bard and a bishop casting boosters and the odd damage spell. I figure with decent pickpocketing and working the rangers alchemy up to decent levels I can afford to make crossbows for the ranger and bard. In the last party, I got ironskin, but it hardly advanced since my fighter was using shields. Hopefully with him being the only guy in the front IS will fly up pretty quick. Anyways, I plan on picking up Vi and RFS monk later for Melee support. Lemme know what you think,
