Need Help BAD

Okay, so I get this game CE, and start playing. I immediately swith to hard and frequent mobs as I always play games on the hardest difficulty for fun. A few minutes cures me of that and I switch to infrequent mobs, as another mob shows up before you can kill teh first. But I level up a bit at the shacks and make it through the sewers into the first town. Hooray! I am playing a magic user.

OMG I go into the tomb and ... Seriously. Everything in thsi game makes you cough. The guy whop made it wnet cough happy. Well I plug through it anyways and get to the beast having to reload several times along the way. I am using the Fire WAnd you get for a quest to take somewhere. BEst weapon I have seen so far. Unfortunately it takes like 5 hits to kill stuff with it. I obviously can't spam spells at this point. Anyhow, I get cheap and lure the beast back to teh ladder and shoot him.

Okay, on ward!

I make it to the gates and I'm like you gotta be kidding me another quest. So i head out to the lake..........dundundun......20 Mushmen. WTF?!?

How do you kill 20 mushmen? Fireball igjures maybe 2. I have eight fireballs. Umm. COugh. Cough. Cough. The stupipd elves won't help me. How do you play this game? I mean it is very fun, I read the reviews and was like what are these guys smokin. It is very good. It's just seems unreasonably hard. I'm not sure it would be any easier for a fighter. How does a fighter take down 20 mushmen? Jeez, I could see 10 maybe and that would be hard, but twenty? Is the only way to play this game to break the economy early to get infinite fireball?

Should i do other quests before going to the elf city to level up?

How high should my arcane magic skill be? I have been pumping INT and doing the minimum AM because I wanted to get some other classes and their extra learning bonuses before pumping AR, but now I am thinking I should have been pumpin AM. Any help on building a mage type character would be much appreciated. Any help on getting past twenty mushmen would be greatly appreciated.

Load up on as many Blast Nova scrolls as you can afford.

get in the lake and use your bow, or just run away. Nothing wrong with living to fight another day.

Wait untill your fight with demon on the island in the lake, your really going to be pissed off.
