I still don't get the xp penalty for crafting things. Sure, I can wait til level 10, but then I get to use what I craft for only a small portion of the game.

I'm trying to figure out if things like Rapiers, bows, etc use dex, while swords and hammers use spears. The manual says nothing about this - only that rogues use dex and fighters use str. Does this mean a fighter's str would apply to his use of rapiers should he choose that route?

One reason I ask ...

I'm leaning towards liking wizards more too, tho in the group I am currently playing I have both a wizard and a sorcerer. I had started with sorcerers after hearing the meme that sorcerers are better for people new to the game - I don't get that.

Any opinions?

Thanks again for the replys all. I'll be putting your suggestions to work. I'm new to this genre of games (single player RPG) coming mainly from MMO's, and completely new to the D&D ruleset.

I bought ToEE near release, installed it, and was turned off immediately by not being ready for the ...

Thanks for the replys. I'll have to keep plugging away at it. I like most aspects of ToEE, especially the more familiar I become with it. In case I need to rebuild, can someone suggest a good template for a cleric?

I must be doing something wrong because all the guides and walkthroughs I've read seem to indicate a cleric (or at least a druid which I have yet to try) is a must. Part of the problem is that I'm not a D&D guy so my expectations of healers are probably skewed by the types you see in MMOs.
