We didnt really get any oppritunity to make tactical attacks - just run or fight.

it still drives me mad when i think that i have 4965 exp while the second most weak party member has over 15000 and as much as i know, our druid is level 7 because she hasnt died even once(lucky bastard! I died about.. 4 times!)..

What good would my weak lvl 3 Mage do? Even the F/M/T is 4/4/4 and therefore stronger in magery than my char is!
