Best one-handed sword is Myrthos, but if you picked Hermosa you have to give it up. When I dual-wielded, I used Laiken's word until the end... along with a weapon from the end of Bellegar's Dungeon of moral choices.
Mage, imo, is more fun. I entered the sigil mine at level 33 and all those level 27 black ring fighters couldn't even hurt me... and I cleared entire rooms with one fireball.
that is due to level differences.. I tried stone (level 28 boss) at level 26, he killed me in 2 hits every time... I managed to eventually beat him but I reloaded before our fight and went away to level... came back at level 31... he couldn't really hurt me anymore since I was too high a level for him...
Mage, warrior, doesn't matter... its your level that counts.
I do not have a superman complex; for I am God, not Superman!
