Time to head to the Rapax Rift, courtyard and then to the castle. A lot of fighting ahead. You will get to meet Ferro in the castle and buy some cool gear. You can get to the rift thru mountain wilderness or can beam to it thru Trang teleporter in Martin's Bluff. Get that freeze all spell workin good. Found it invaluable in their.

You've got virtually the exact group I'm in the process of creating for my 2nd trip out. Why do you want to change your bard? I finished the first game with an engineer so I wanted to try a bard this time. I see you have some of the problems I anticipate, only two strong frontliners. I was thinkin with R2D2 I could have a third and keep the bard in the back after that. Are you losing effectiveness with the bard? Judging from your attributes, you've got some work cut out to change it into a close combatant. Your dexterity is up for the samuri but you'll need to add to senses for critical strike. Good luck.
