Too many weapons - Page 3

Yeh, I wanted to try something different. He does very well as a rogue. Vitality 60 helps but had to boost speed (and dex) as fast as possible.

BTW, this party has no deaths and have only had to restart a couple of battles mainly early on to prevent it (mound w/Deathlord, Gregor of course, etc). Compared to some I play conservatively and don't do repetitive training on locks or magic (except the "cast before camping" thing). Too boring. I will stand and shoot arrows to boost skill, though.

One trick for magic building is to have the hybrids cast at least one magic in every battle, even if they are buffed for melee and it looks like wasted effort.

Edit: the * are left over from Wiz 7. I think it means "special". Some of the biggest, meanest, baddest critters (dragons, giants and squid thing) had them.

Some spiders 'paralyze' rather than 'web', and since the *Light Shield* has, IIRC, 90% water resist, that's what's probably saving your Rogue.
