Hi guys. I really got stuck when I got to the mainland from Fort Joy. I had been fine up to then but I just couldn't proceed in any direction or with any quest because there always seemed to be an impossible battle blocking me. In order to simply keep playing the game I was forced to switch to Explorer but now the game is boring because there's no challenge.

I don't want to criticise the game unduly but I could use some tips on how to make the game more of a challenge on Explorer. I've decided no resurrection scrolls and no runes. I would drop a party member but I love them all and want to do their quests.

Did anyone else have this problem? What did you do? Did you persevere with Classic or switch to Explorer? I'm sure some people just gave up.

Thanks everyone.
