My mistake. I know that my fighters have ~80% resistance bonus in all realms with magic sceen on. But i forgot the fact that they have equipement with resistance bonus. When taking this into accont, its only 35%+, or 5% per level.

In my experience, magic screen is enough for most battles, except mountain wildernesse, Rapax areas, and the temple fight. But since i want to have mage spells available for to missile shield, i also have elemental shield. And since i want priest spells (or an instrument) for magic screen, i also have soul shield available. So i use them when i think i need the additional protection.

A word to the battle with deathstings: I used up ~12 ressurrection powders in both battles. I was unable to run away, and my group of 4 hybrids wasn't able to kill them in time. I assume somewhere in your long post is the hint to buy as many of these powders as possible early in the game.
