I'm playing a melee staff Glass Cannon Inquisitor with Necro and Man At Arms. It's weird. I probably should have added aerothurge for some close-range CC too..<snip>Glass Cannon also makes things really dangerous, but it's tons of fun too
Yes it is fun. I'm trying a solo run now based on this (sort of) recommendation.
You are correct - you need aerothrurge as well as necro and warfare. You also may need pyro (explode people around you) which means you spread yourself thin. I think that you need immunities from items as well. I'm only writing this to let the merchants stock up again on the off chance...
It is the most fun I've had on DOS 2 for months though. I normally stop at level 5 as I can't be bothered after that and try another set-up. Now I'm on level 4, I've got my plus 3 elixir, collar off and ready to go. Perhaps I'll finish it..
It would however be nice if you got bonuses earlier as a lone wolf. I can't afford Pet Pal so I'll be very short on XP and most likely not be on level 7 let alone 8 before the last fight.
