@KensaiRyu - no offence man but you just summoned skeleton *warriors*. Sure its a spell but face it, the mage needs fighters to do the killing for him. There's nothing wrong with that. The fighters *need* mages to defeat spell protections.

@Manveru - never played a monk but they sound like one-man armies at high level.

@Nighthawk - yeah, that's kinda what I'm saying. Not that I want to whirl through the game in record time but fighters are far more efficient at this killing business. I don't have the inclination for this "preparation", "resting" and "casting time" Image

I'm a blockhead. Show me the enemy and I'll tear into 'em.

Oh yeah, and mages smell.

i agree with grunt boy, when playing as an evil half-orc barbarian (man he was sooo tough) i was looking forward to getting edwin as i had not had him b4 as i was good, however i hardly used him, after the underdark i am sure he barely fired off one spell, me and korgan (both with boots of speed) simply waded in and chopped up everything into little tiny pieces, i simply used edwin to remove wizards protections in order to slice up mages.

i had a truly brilliant Sorcerer but i found that i would sacrifice killing some opponents just so i could let off spells that crash my computer, my people would get pummeled and the spell would be crap.... only useful in certain situations, sort of like Contraception.... Image
