Just looked it up on the Wiki. Looks like shield + fencing weapon could be the best choice for a mage, as there are also excellent fencing weapons for the main char...so forget what I said!
My party members were all marxists.
Does it matter much if I DO keep using staff on my mage? I don't really like the idea of using shield+fencing weapons just for power gaming. So if it doesn't gimp my character, I'll keep using staffs.
Also should I take roundhouse attack for Rhulana? Is it worth the experience cost?
but in the world of Drakensang, spellcasters are not usually like that, they normally use shields and armor (non-metal)
