Game the easiest by abusing Mechanics? Mage. Int reduces Cooldown ( i assume Warrior Cooldowns too ). -> Invisibility has 1 Round Cooldown. with Lonewolf + Class Cannon + 7 Speed ( 5 + 2 Equipment ) -> 18 Ap per Round - 6 Ap for Invisibility I can cast 2 Spells and cast Invisibility. Enemies cant do anything against it -> win.
But same can be achieved by Rogue: Invisibility ( long CD ) -> go into Stealth somewhere where Enemies cant see you. Wait for Invisibility to be Ready again -> go in -> Invisibility and repeat.
Right. That is one of the issues programming down to the last minute. There are balance issues. I'll go back to using the phrase you can build your character to how easy you want to make the game. (Unless Chap 2-4 gets a lot harder)
Which does not matter much since the game is non-competitive. I have no problem with Larian adjusting skills but this is just one big hyperbole. Look at BG2, mages were by far the most powerful class there too in the game, yet the game was soloed by a Beastmaster, the weakest class in an unmodded BG 2 game. Clerics and Rogues were still plenty poweful and in their own right more powerful than mages. Only backstab was capable of getting 1k crits in that game just to mention one example.
