The main damage dealers are then the three other characters (swordsman, unarmed and minoutaur throwing rogue). A keeper setup. :) Man, that rogue must have had a huge strength score in order to throw Minotaurs. Yeah, you wouldn't believe! ;) (on a serious note the minotaur ended up with STR 30 with...

I went and maxed out Spellcraft (50 points) for double casting speed and (much) less energy drain for cast spells. 13 points in Ice magic for Ice bolts. The mage's main task is to blast enemies with Ice bolts (he cast them fast and throw alot of them with his Spellcraft 50). The point of the Ice bol...

Here's my party!

I'm sorry, English is not my native language, so I may just have read it wrong, but how the phrase "you're stuck with a Cudgel until the very end of level 3" can be interpreted otherwise? I think his objection is that the cudgel is a crappy weapon compared to say the dagger or the machete...

Oh, lol. That train of thought makes sense. It's however incorrect. The "dump stat" term originates from pre-point buy systems. Games like D&D originally required you to roll 6 stats and then assign them to 6 ability scores (other systems might use more or less than 6 stats). You dump...

I thought "dump stat" meant a stat where you dumped all available points? As you did: dump all points into strength: strength is the "dump stat"?

- Willpower seems like a pretty useless stat if you aren't a mage. I'm not sure how to make the stat more valuable to rogues and fighters, though. Energy is required to make special attacks like Rampage, Flurry of Slashes or Kick. Defeating a monster without special attacks takes much longer. Energ...

I just descended and finished the game, but only after treadmilling everyone to level 22. Even then, that last battle was tough! Very sneaky level design, devs, very sneaky ;) I can't imagine the time you must have spent. I feeling like I'm wasting my life just by going up to level 14 by treadmilli...

Except there aren't really any great throwing weapons. Throwing axes cap out at 15 attack and you don't find those until level 9~ish while the crossbow you find at the end of level 3 and has 20 attack. Not to mention you can't enchant rocks and ninja stars with elemental properties. Which brings me...
