Thanks for the tips. The one about the fire spell and fire sword might be a bit more than I'd hoped for going beyond my questions - I'd been working on the puzzle I'm pretty sure that refers to. I'd tried several things very close to that, such as firing elemental arrows including fire arrows at th...

How about spoiler tags?

There are a few small things not clear in the game. I'm on the end of level 9. Party: Minotaur warrior swords, lizard rogue daggers, human air mage and insect ice mage. I haven't found a use for the bracelet with +20% health regen and +20% food used, over the 20% increase attack 20% slower cooldown ...

The following spoiler is just a game mechanic, not really spoiling the puzzle but fixed it for me.

Whew, I try not to get help with the game, but was pretty stuck on this - the mention of being encumbered made the difference! I forgot all my chars were barely able to move.

With that, I got it in about 4 tries.

My rogue has a 12/20 dagger and a 7/20 dagger with +5 accuracy, I don't know how to weigh the damage and accuracy bonuses but guess the 12/20 is better? Not an issue now though, he keeps the +5 accuracy in the range slot so he gets the bonus, but could be an issue if he has to pick between weapons ...

Thanks a lot for the great posts. A lot of good information in them, way more than I expected. Unfortunately, they still leave me with some questions and choices. It sounds like I should also not be too pleased I didn't understand some things about the game it doesn't make clear, like having some bo...

OK, thanks. So even if I feel like air magic bonuses stop being very useful at 27 or 32, it can be worth going to 50 or more instead of switching to another school or even the neutral energy one.

So, with only one Minotaur, zero in athletics, 16 in armor and the rest in swords (though I have now found an axe and mace by level 4/5)... why does one or more minotaurs matter on athletics? I won't need the HP and defense from athletics that much? On my rogue, I do have two mages in the back, air ...

Earlier I looked for threads on this and didn't see any, surprisingly. A couple basic topics: I have a minotaur warrior frontline - what are good guidelines between armor, athletics, and weapon? (likely sword). (While I'm at it, is higher faster or slower for weapon speed?) I have a lizard rogue fro...
