Perin keeps dying. Storms hits me with her WPA (widdle pink axe) or Jan tries to help me by summoning monsters and fire-balling me.
They ask Perin to scout ahead, and when he's RIGHT NEXT to the enemy, Storm casts a defensive spell and alerts them, when I'm RIGHT NEXT to them.
And, Perin is the "official" Storm Party Trap finder.
No, Archers don't get a Find Traps ability, or spell (spell available later). They just send Perin away, into the trap, and watch eagerly.
Perin is taking his healing herbs now.
and, let's not forget Storms CloudKill spell.
