Interesting. Seems to me I've missed one of the greatest spells in all of my earlier games : Chameleon.
From your post I believe that I played it like you in my earlier games . But I often had to run away because I was heavy damaged . Even now I do not use Chameleon. I found some Tinctures of Shadows and used it in the plains but when
the monsters came close they always detected me. I never thought that you can sneak with Chameleon up into the hall and make it to the stairs unseen.
I must think about it ( not with my current party ) but maybe I try another one later .
You know from my posts that I like Canned Elementals. But don't believe I only
fight with them. There are four special combats in W8 I like to use them .
1st: Sorceress Queen , 2nd : Nessie , 3rd : Keeper of the Crypt , and 4th : Souleater. And I found out that it is helpful to use them early in the game ( f.e. Battering Hogar in Northern Wildernes ) .
P.S:
I sounds crazy but I'm happy to hear that I missed a good strategy for this long time because there is something new now for me to try.
