Hey guys,
Picked up the game a couple days ago and it's been a lot of fun thus far. Currently have a level 14 mage at the Abbey and I'm getting discouraged with this class <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/disagree.gif" alt="" /> Keep having to pass up all these nice weapons and/or armor with my strength only at around 35, etc...
The steel skeletons are troublesome - I end up having to waste a lot of mana on casting spikes to take out one or two of them. So, being someone who hates having to "sleep" every 3 minutes to get mana back up, I was thinking of starting over as a warrior.
Does the game continue to be this slow going for wizards or do the more powerful spells such as Hail lessen this to any extent? I hate to give up all these nice 100dmg halberds/axes and, in turn, have a hard time killing off the next guy with spells.
