Got to play this a little more over the weekend. I cleared out Sorpigal, the surrounding areas, and the Den of Thieves. After getting curbstomped by a shadow dragon in one of the random dungeons, I've decided to try tackling the Lighthouse. My characters are currently level 7.
I have a dilemma regarding my Scout. I want to focus on Crossbows, Axes, Dual wield, and Medium Armor. Would I be spreading my points too thin if I also took Fire AND Light to Expert? My Freemage is focused on Air, Dark, and Primordial; I could give her Fire too but I'm also worried about spreading her points too thin as well.
Also, is Magical Focus worth putting points into if I'm not increasing Destiny on my Freemage? I would rather increase spell points and magic strength over critical chance.
One of the most enjoyable yet frustrating part of this game is the idea that with only 4 characters and limited EXP available I'm never going to have enough skill points to do everything I want to with my characters. Enjoyable in that it forces me to plan ahead and really think carefully about placing skill points. Frustrating in that I am overthinking it a bit.
What do you guys think?
