My survivor used dagger for 10 levels or so, but it quickly became an issue of: do I use dagger and shield for fun, or stand back not taking any damage and deal out more damage with a bow? I then used bow for the next 10 levels until I found a bastard sword that can hit for almost 100 damage. Now 2 to 3 sword-hits kills just about anything, and I can click Restore skill to heal when needed. I dont even need potions really except when I dont feel like resting.
I think your selection of skills is interesting, but what Ive seen of these game so far, its more about killing stuff then eating meat to heal-up, rather than trading and needing to evade traps. Need to be able to deal out damage, and then either avoid taking damage, or be good at soaking it up. Kinda simple when put into those terms, but when thats done we can focus on the story and exploration I guess. heh. Too bad the combat seems a bit too easy, but so was Diablo until the "Nightmare levels", so Im not surprised. I guess thats what DD needs. A much more difficult setting, without the "elite orcs" and such becoming unkillable.
