How can you play with 4 wizards ? There is Gale and yourself. Where do the the other 2 come from ?
And how do these wizards recover spells and survive without long rests. I assume you start from level 1, right ?
I think you have to start a multiplayer game, then open 3 more instances of it on your computer to make the rest of the custom party, then save the game and relaunch with only the first character's profile. Haven't tried it so I could be wrong.
Wizards get cantrips which are cast at will. There are also plenty of scrolls to use. A long rest would not be needed with careful gameplay, just save all your spell slots and scrolls for the "oh crap" moments. If you prefer not to be careful, anyone can use cleric spell scrolls and food and potions are plentiful for healing.
