12-11-2000, 04:32 AM

Who is more usefull a thief or a druid personally myself i think both are very good but who is essential?Lat the debate begin.

How can you compare a thief and a druid? It's like comparing a fighter and a mage, they're completely different.

What do you mean more essensial?

in a party of 6 in which there is a cleric already but no thief
then i would say a thief

or in a party that hasn't got a priest but does have a thief
I would say a Avenger

or in a party without a thief nor a priest
Then i would say Your party SuX

Or if you have a party wich has both i would say take on another mage

Mages Rock

Yeah you got a good point there a lot of people usualllt either have a thief or a druid but i actually find the thief more useful.

1.opening locks is essential
2.stealth and backstab can be very usefull for killing mages.
3.pick pockets is great because there are loads of good items on rich people and stealing from shops is just so usefull.
4.Setting traps on the ground is fairly shit except for the parts of the game where your in a narrow passage.
5.Detect illusions is the worst ability ever.
6.Climb walls they didnt even put that in the game but its in the manual.(might have been good).

Druids have some neat features if.But not as essential as the thief if you dont agree just reply to this.

1.Shapeshifting,only really good for the avenger.
2.Insect plague is very usefull for distrupting spellcasting.
and thats it except for some ok priest spells.
the thief is better

But bardo wjhat i wanna know is if you have anothe priest in your group

12-11-2000, 05:10 AM

No i dont have another priest in my group.I dont think clerics are as offensive as druids so thats why.

12-11-2000, 05:29 AM

Then you party suX
specific cleric spells-> Resurrection, raise dead, cure critical wounds, heal, restoration, Flame strike, bolt of glory, rightsueos magic, aerial servant anfd ofcourse finger of death

How does my party suck im just stating that i prefer druids to clerics
ok and i couldnt be arsed making a ranger cleric to get all the priest spells.In my view clerics are weak thiefs are needed in every party so are mages and fighters.Who do you have in your party kael
