For a beginners look at strategy and class/race/attribute selection you might want to check out my post here:

btw, I'm the one that mentioned the spells in duplicate that Sultan is refering to...and the specifics are in the post mentioned above.

tactically you have a problem (assuming your developing a ranger and gadgeteer as ranged attackers more than as a melee'ers). Your problem is that you don't have a proper meatshield character. You have either a samurai or a monk as a meatshield and as your monk develops Stealth skill opponents will naturally "focus" on you samuari as your meatshield. Samurai are generally not too good for meatshield duty (and are tough to develop this way). You'll also need to pack LOTS of stamina potions for your gadgeteer.

Try to develop your Bishop for ALL major and minor classes of magic. If possible do not select any divinity spells - instead purchase them in Arnika.
