I am about half way through A4 for my first time with a pretty standard 4 character party (2 slith pollarm users, a human mage and a human priest, and my mage is also a (low skilled) archer and (high skilled) lockpicker, and am thinking of starting a second party. I am looking for advice from other A4 fans. Any ideas for another party? I am looking for interesting combinations, especially with archers. Any recomendations? Note I am not planning on trying to solo this game; I save and restart enough as it is. :-) [ Friday, June 16, 2006 09:58: Message edited by: Xenodave ] Posts: 9 | Registered: Friday, May 26 2006 07:00 |

My party: Human Soldier Slith Beserker Nephil Archer Human Sorcerer, w/ low level Priest skills -------------------- Polaris The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents.

quote:Myself, I tend to use four custom characters. A human sword fighter with Natural Mage and enough mage and priest skill to cast War Blessing and Haste is my primary tank. A human priest with enough priest skill to cast Smite, enough mage skill to cast Slow, low skill with polearms, and Natural Mage to wear good armor is my main healer/secondary tank. A human wizard with enough mage skill to cast Icy Rain and enough priest skill to cast Protection, along with Natural Mage again just for the bonuses is my main wizard/second healer. I round this out with a nephil archer with high tool use, Sharpshooter, and Nimble Fingers to get past any traps or locks. Then I just increase their stats based on what I use them for or find lacking. It's not The Best Party, but it suits me just fine, and I usually take 2 positive traits, so Slith characters tend to be cost-prohibitive to me. -------------------- We all have our crushes.

For A4, my favorite party was this: Human priest/sword-wielding-warrior Slith mage/spear-wielding-berserker Nephil mage/archer/rogue Human priest All of these characters had the emphasis on the magic part (i.e.: my warrior could cast RETRIBUTION!!!), and it worked beautifully. Sadly, this was my second time through the game, and I couldn't maintain my interest past Fort Remote. -------------------- Thuryl: "Runescape: for people who are too stupid to save their games."

For A4 I used a custom party: Nephil divine touch elite warrior - used as an archer Slith divine touch elite warrior - pole weapon primarily Human divine touch natural mage - primarily mage/thief Human divine touch pure spirit - primarily priest The spell casters start at 5/5 mage/priest to get all free spells. I want the priest to get up to lightning spray, but it isn't needed at the Eastern Gallery. Posts: 4643 | Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00 |

I tried doing a solo thing, but it sure didn't work out well, so I tried it with two. I then figured I'd need a 3rd guy to carry all my stuff. I ended up with (all custom, and no extra traits, BTW): a figher/priest slith, an archer/melee weapon figher/weak spellcaster nephil (with lockpicking-ness), and a priest/mage human (with high strength). It's going pretty well so far. I make a new character, load 'im with cave/arcane lore, and delete him afterwards whenever I need more of those stats, which is kinda cheaty, but saves me points nonetheless.
