Description
Been playing CRPGs since Tunnels of Doom on my TI99-4a. Prefer turn-based combat and playing casters because who doesn't like magic?

Rangers get screwed by Material component changes
I created a High Elf Rogue to test Shadowcaster. A few things: 1) Picked "Dancing Lights" as my racial cantrip. Couldn't cast it because it requires a component pouch or focus, neither of which I started off with. Of course, I didn't realize this until I was in the cave under Caer Lem and could have used the spell. 2) Chose Shadowcaster at 3rd and as I suspected, I was not able to cast spells...

Rangers get screwed by Material component changes
Didn't try borrowing a Paladin's amulet. As it is, I found a plain wand in a chest and slotting that enabled me to cast spells with my Ranger when I re-enabled the settings. And I know it's easy to rectify -- the problem is that when you discover that you can't cast spells, you may be in the middle of a dungeon and won't be able to fix things for a while (unless you get...

Linearality after meeting woman in monastery is damn annoying.
Just to add my 2 cents to this... I also found this annoying. I had picked up Agni's bones and figured "I'll stop off at the next quest point on my way back to Caer Cyflen since it's on the way". Only to find that "sorry, you can no longer return Agni's Bones now". Um.. what??? Given how K's quest ends, I can see why she would feel compelled to see it through with as...

Wich is your favorite party?
I've tried a lot of variations (even did 4 clerics once, right now I'm doing 1 Ranger + 3 Paladins). When the game releases in it's final form and I do my first complete playthrough, I'll probably use: Sylvan Elf Lowlife Ranger (high DEX for dual wield and lockpicking/stealth/traps) Human Spy Fighter (Spellblade). The "your weapon is always considered to be a magic weapon for purposes of what it can hit" is actually pretty nice. ...
