Playing a Mage/Rogue Is much more fun
Posted: Sat Sep 01, 2012 4:17 amI decided to get rid of my fighter that I was using as it required much less strategy using melee and was boring. I think that with games like this and eschalon book 1, 2 series, its much more strategic and fun to use a mage or archer build.
My mage that I'm using although he is a spell caster, his skills and attributes are very much like a rogue or bard type character. I give 1 to dex, 1 to endurance, 1 to intelligence and 2 to personality. Im making him more of a bard as his high personality will make him very much an agent that uses personality for defense and offense. Whats more, personality is tied with some mage defenses and certain spells although I will only use environmental magic and attack magic.
Its much more fun with games like the quest and other games where you get 1 action/movement to use ranged weapons/spells as you actually have to time your moves and use terrain as an advantage. Melee while in other games is fun, in the quest this is boss.
