I pinched the idea of a Giant Sword Party from someone on the VN Boards. All Mook obviously,
Fighter, Lord, Samurai and Ranger.
You are guaranteed four Giant Swords although you won't get the fourth near the end and the other two only after a very tough fight (trying not to spoil it for those new at Wiz8).
Started the Fighter as a Rogue and the other three had a level of their relevant Magic discipline (ie, Divinity, Wizardry, Alchemy)at level 2.
Only got one GS so far, from that dungeon you know where and gave it to the Fighter. The good thing is that you only have to concentrate on Swords, don't have to bother with Dual Class, a secondary weapon etc so, for example, for the Fighter and Lord you only need to put points in Sword, Close Combat and Bow at first.
The Ranger needs Ranged Combat instead of Close Combat for starters and, of course, the Samurai needs Critical Strike.
Tough at the start and I try to put some points into Shield but only up to 20 or so.
Did think of doing the Stealth training but am too lazy to spend hours doing it.
