A4 - Character Building (Duo, normal difficulty)

[Emlurk]

I've just had my first proper run-in with Avernum 4 the last couple of days. I beleive I've done most of the stuff there is do in the demo section, and ordered the full game. Now while I'm waiting I'm wondering how to best utilize my unspent skill points.

 

These are my characters so far:

(The fighter now has 20 sp, not 18, as he just drank a knowledge brew.)

Obviously I regret getting tool use on my fighter but I'm not gonna start over just because of that.

 

So where oh where do I invest?

The obvious choices seem to be +1 Meele for fighter which would enable Quick Strike. And +1 Mage Spells for the mage to access Magery. Then what?

Scroll down the list a bit and eventually Synergy will talk about his A4 singleton's progress.

It should help.

 

Edit -It is past her posts on how it is impossible

Synergy is male.

There is plenty of advice on character building. Also Synergy has a long discussion at the link near the bottom of here. This has links to most of what you will need.

You should have combined mage skills with tool use since this will allow you to unlock higher difficulty doors.

Priest spells tend to be more useful at higher levels except for the mage's strong daze spell.
