You're putting a Loincloth on the mage? Did you check out the details? Best give the Loincloth to the ranged rogue. It's awesome on him. For the mage, not so much. I think that's exactly what I'll do. My first rogue was using a dagger and during my first play through I underestimated ranged attacks...

I see. I misinterpreted how you read my post. I'm sorry for my rambling. I'll go ahead then and edit my post.

I never meant to imply that they were not immortal at any particular time. What I meant to say was that, going on a (personal) hunch, maybe the inner sanctum kept them immortal.

I think there are probably 42 ways of losing altogether.

Yes, certainly no offense intended. It was the only piece of equipment I had at the moment. You were my "mage".

I've really enjoyed playing four mages with this game. It's an interesting challenge. Has anyone else finished the game with four pure spellcasters?

By the way, here is an interesting team that I put together before:

All things considered... "Technology/Graphics", "Story", Replayability", "Atmosphere/Environment", "Ease-of-Use" and "Overall Fun". I rated the game an 8.5 out of 10 trying to be completely unbiased. I know it may not seem fair to not dive into ...

First time through, I went with the standard party.

Second time through:

Figher - Human - Light Armor - Sword
Fighter - Minotaur - Evasion - Maces - Hit Points Galore
Rogue - Human - Evasion - Daggers - Assassination
Mage - Human - Wands & Orbs - Spellcraft - Air Magick

Seriously, I could not fathom for the life of me that the developers within the near future would not add the option(s) of allowing less than a four (4) character team. Not to mention, Ironman and Permadeath playing styles. This game is almost "screaming" for these add-ons.

Toorum disguised as a monster would've been amusing. Actually, I would've loved to see that. I wonder if some of the other Goromorgs noticed that he may have appeared a little... "short". Long hood; where would be the Illithids?
