I tried the hobbit bard, but what do you do for healing in the start of the game? Even with the potions of light heal I pick up I run out of hps fast.. and levels come quick when you're both solo and in the beginning of the game, so I'm level 5 pretty quick for the dual-classing to rogue.. how do you survive the seeker onslaught at that level? There's no way I could set combat to continuous and just leave, I'd get butchered in a matter of rounds [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Another thing that's bugging me is the weight, a solo char can hardly carry anything, and you still need to carry loot to get money right? If you're not an alchemist, but the hobbit bard doesn't have alchemy skills.. as I'm typing this I remember that he's got the pickpocket skill, but is that lucrative at all?

I have a feeling I'll be editing this post 20 or so times, I had a heap of questions when I started and they're all gone now

EDIT no 1: Ah yes, an addition to the stealth question.. won't the critters run off when you're at about skill level 60-70? They always did that for me when I tried doing a solo faerie ninja (with a sidekick healing priest since, as I said, I'd get slaughtered otherwise).

EDIT no 2: Oh, and there's no difficulty setting bug is there? I played Normal in my first two games, but when I thought they made it too hard for me on occassion I switched to Novice in my third, and I swear it actually became harder!
