Maybe i'm too used to think in terms of D&D/Pathfinder where slightly posive con is essential for low lvl wizards, and a con malus is death.

Control wizard seems like a good choice, but they really go down very fast to archers and other wizard, since their endurance is so very low to begin with & 3 con lowers it even further. Also, my first companion (that doesn't die) is a wizard. Nice to see someone with a Dark Sun avatar btw., good times...

Greetings, after playing until Deficance Bay with a more balanced character, i'd like restart the game with a character that's focused on dexterity and the mental attributes, dumping the first two (-> great dialogue choices). So its about Might & Con = 3, the rest 18+. What class would you suggest for this attribute array ?

I actually love those soultouch characters, i even have a log of of read/unread NPCs. Its kinda like a free short story collection that comes with the game. Sometimes i want to advance the plot/quests and skip them (and the books), sometimes i'm in no hurry and get back to immerse myself in the world.

I had no more camping supplies, so i had to cheat a bit unfortunately (giving myself two free rests via console) but i finally made it to the master staircase.

I also had problems with this guy, especially the two archmages are really hard. After some trial and error, i removed them from the fight with an alpha strike: give everyone the slowest, heaviest, hardest hitting ranged weapon you can find in their secondary slot (the ones that take ages to reload). Immediately after the fight starts, hit pause, have 3 chars fire at archmage1, the other 3 at archmage2. If all goes well, this kills both archmages. Immediately switch all characters to their normal weapons and resume the fight normally (i had my spellcasters target the priest next, after that the worst is over). Still a hard fitght after that, but no longer impossible.

The dungeon below the Stronghold is quite hard. So i basically had my fingers glued to the quicksave button. Anyway, i went down some sacrificial pit, and had a really hard fight vs. a huge drake, got killed 3 times and made it on the forth (hard difficulty, lvl 5). However, my happiness lasted only for a short time when i noticed i couldn't get back! And due to the saves before/after the drake fight, i cannot reload. Without rest, its impossible to get back (the sacrificial pit kinda bypassed 2 unexplored levels, and i cannot climb back up). Anyway, is there some console command to teleport my party back up? All recent saves are drake saves...

Forget about getting the class talent, the +10 Accuracy you gain from Weapon Focus is really gold. Its great for 1H fighter (more crits, fewer grazes), but i think it is essential for sword and board, since the game's to-hit chance seems to be balanced for normal Acc or better. Sword and Board really starts to shine later imo, when shields have less acc-loss and you also have the Sword and Shield talent for even more deflection. But Weapon Focus first!
