So, is there one that just lets you buff your characters a bit? Or just raise XP? I know this doesn't have "stats" the same way the Avernum series did. Just the skill tree?
As with most Spiderweb games, I keep running into stuff even early on that I just stand no chance against.
Chose to head to Tainly (sp?) first, and run into a group of soldiers that I cannot hit, who mostly one-shot my party members. Even with a handful of decent armor / weapon / augments (bronze splint with +health, iron rapier with +str, orb thing for mage, etc.)
