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!
[/QUOTE]I'm not sure about the rest, but that 4/4/4 added up makes 12 levels. Sounds like some favoritism may be going around. You might want to ask about doing some solo adventures to help "catch" up, if your DM will agree. If not, then he definitely has something in for you. In that case, I would recommend finding other gaming friends.
