LOL! Wouldn't that movie have been better if Willey just decided at the last minute to take the kid with him?

Thanks for the help The_Dude :)

wow I didn't mean to make you dizzy with a serious question :D
I think it is good to discuss this both for the discussion and the fact that if this becomes more spam good old Bucky will kick this treat down to the speak your mind section what he is in his good right to do. ;)

What makes the mage(sorc.) and thief constalation so interresting is that non of these two can tank (that good) you have to do a bit more thinking and I you do it right it really pays off.

your welcome Garcia :D

btw that is a good point if we get to much spam we will be kicked to SYM and then we aren't the biggest topic of the board anymore :( :D

so for something serieus............
anyone a idea, or just give your idea's about a Mage Thief party and what would u pick then a sorc or a specialist mage.
a normal thief or one of his kits??

Or does some one knows another great combo with either a thief or Mage?

What i think is a great party a Assassin/Mage and a Bezerker/Cleric u got al u need to go through the game easily i think.

A sorc. and an assassin would be my pick. the sorc. would have to have the knock spell and so that the assassin won't have to spend his few skill points in lock picking. that will leave him more points to hide in shadow and move silently.
with only two party members you will be at high levels quickly for that nice X7 backstab and poison.
The tactic at not so familiar places will have to be to move with caution since if they will be surrounded the won't stand that big a chance.

@Dude: i think sorcerer and assassin is the coolest. You described well the advantages of this party.
If i had to pick a specialist mage, i'd take a necromancer, a class i like very much. The Abjurer would be cool too with his defencives spells to protect the assassin....and himself.... :p

As you can see, the instruments played are not so usual....we don't like classifications, but we in are in that area of music called "apocalictic folk". MP3 are not available now....but soon they'll be.
Usually poeple don't know us much, but after seeing our live shows, the crowd is really happy.......

Am I the only one terrified at how the Anomen topic has grown? :eek: :eek: :eek: Image At this rate they're going to overtake us in 53.84 hours! MORE SPAM!!!

Seriously, I'd love to discuss some non spam (or Hell Orca :D ) related topics but as of now there's not much new stuff to debate. :(
Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

i too was a bit distressed by the anomen topic, so i took a gander but found it as random as our topic to figure out what they weer actuakky talkign about. what is the point of their topic now? and more importantly, how can we, the shadow mages take them out?


or if all else fails, i will temporarily step aside to allow the hell orca to do his dirty work on them
