So your not a fan of stabbey, choppy, slashy, crushy, pokey, goodness but in truth melee weapons are better than spells, especially towards the end of game. You will see. Spells are good and useful but a great fighter with a good weapon and utilizing his arsenal of special attack talents is a different sort of better. ANd do not laugh at Archers with good bows and the right skills.
statistically in my latest playthrough the wizard and the ROgue are together killing about 1/3 rd of those that get killed the rest have been chopped into bloody quivering sushi like piles of diced flesh by my Knight and his 2handed sword. He killed 5 enemies with one Whirlwind in an encounter and that is not his first time doing that, and when it happens it is just cool and watch that experience bar go!
But it is a combined arms tactical doctrine, I would not want 3 fighters or 3 rogues or 3 wizards, 1 of each and each working with each other together to win.
Best Luck!
Have fun storming the castle!
Wait, did I insinuate somewhere that I don't use fighters, or would be completely reliant on spells? I was just mention that it isn't my usual playstyle, of course a fighter is a necessity, I've had boss fights that I would have never won without Madora, or Scarlet who is a sword and shield knight. Heck I had a boss fight or two where they were the only survivors... Yea, that fight went pretty bad.
Of course a well diverse team is best, I agree and wasn't saying otherwise.
