Maybe they need a few level ups to really get going.
Go on game master mode and look at the skill and items you can get with level. None of their stuff are interesting and since they only scale with stat, you either deal some damage and die before you get to act or just deal no damage act anyway.
The only time you will deal damage with magic is that you go necromancy because it deals physical damage.
interesting to people on here really think that warrior is stronger than rogue now?
Warfare was always stronger than rogue when it comes to brute forcing on Beta especially before the executioner nerfs.
And even with the recent nerfs, Warfare is still ridiculous simply because it has all the AoE knockdown CC you need to abuse the game poor armor system even on tactician, something rogue can't do. You can easily keep an entire group of enemy down for 4 turns straight if you have multiple warfare as you beat their bloated health down to 0.
