Another help my party thread

whick3 · 04-04-2004, 01:18 AM

Hello there, i've made a few posts, tried many many different parties, and I can't find a group I'm really happy with, happy enough to beat the game again. I always think that theres a better party I could make, and this bothers me so much that I have to end my game, make a new party with the ideas I have at the time and start over [img]smile.gif[/img] , I've very obsessive compulsive as you can see.

And in Wizardy 8 there really is not a prefect party so to speak. I have this list of traits I want "MY" prefect party to have. I'm going to list them and if you could tell me the best way on how to get there.Like what class to start out, then when to switch classes and so forth. My party must be 4, or a 2 man team, I don't mind training

The List: 100 in stealth, 100 in critical, I always like maxing speed and dex first for the ac, so 100 dex, 100 speed, able to cast portal/summon elemental, I also like using weapons that paralyze,hex, or kill, and then able to wear the best armor, i'm not worried about dishing out tons of damage, I like AC, and resists.

I'm willing to try anything, all advice is welcome

You have high standards. Unfortunately, you need patience to builds those skills. I get many good results with any number in the party, I try smaller numbers for the challenge. You may never be happy because there is no perfect party or strategy. As far as I know. They are all good, because they make you think. Keep trying though!

Only way I can see doing it would be to switch classes at around lv 10 or so, spend a lot of time in monastery to max out the skills you want, then head back out again.

Best bet would be to set everyone up as Monks or Ninjas at that level in order to get the CS and Stealth.

As to the best armor, you probably then would be looking at Lord.

As to summoning elemental, you're back to looking at Ninja or Samurai.

Simply put, you'll be needing a lot of attributes at high levels, not just Spd and Dex.
