ItвЂ™s a fairly simple idea but astounding how many people donвЂ™t even consider it. ItвЂ™s what I call вЂњcircle-strafingвЂќ, and essentially itвЂ™s constantly moving around the square grid, striking enemies on the sides and back to avoid damage and also deal more yourself. ItвЂ™s going to become something youвЂ™ll get really familiar. Careful positioning can make for extremely simple fights.ДЎ, 2, 3вЂ¦1, 2, 3вЂ¦ ItвЂ™s like doing the Waltz! Something also worth remembering, is that spells hit all enemies on a tile, and spells such as Ice Spikes, ripple out in a line and travel through multiple tiles. This is where Ice and Air go really well a stun coupled with strong offensive spells with not many resistant enemies makes for them as the best choices to go for in terms of spell schools. If youвЂ™ve played a little into the game, youвЂ™ll find the Poison Resist is helpful to get for level three andВ onward, butВ doesnвЂ™tВ exactly scale as well late game due to the lack of strong offensive abilities. I say Air because it gives all the best lightning spells, and theres also the least resistance to them, and Ice because it eventually gives you Frost Bolt вЂ“ this has a chance to freeze, and as stuns are rare, itвЂ™s definitely worth having and abusing. I highly recommend going the path of Ice and Air. I recommend only skilling in one or two magic trees, otherwise youвЂ™ll be spread too thin to get any really effectiveness out of your spells. Magi are simple, get damage items and skill purely towards getting more energy. Skill points should be spent maxing out throwing or missile weapons, and then the remainder placed where ever you get the best stat benefits from. So all you then need to do it maximise your strength for more damage output.

All thrown or missile weapons/ammunition can be picked up again off slain enemies and better yet, they do not have a hit calculation like melee weapons do. Get some throwing weapons, shurikens or knives, or ranged weapons, like a crossbow. I donвЂ™t recommend this, simply because the other is so much better. One of which is to go the path of melee weapons and skill into Assassination. Being sneaky and spell-slinging, is being smart. Strength isnвЂ™t as important as its purely a damage stat. So in summary, warriors want high Constitution for health and Dexterity for dodge. Keep in mind that nothing except Resist Spells affects magic hence why the Constitution for a high health pool is important. Not getting hit at all is better than reducing the hit damage. Also to further this point, Armour is great but Evasion is also just as important. High Constitution and higher base Dexterity are optimal. They have lower intellect, but who cares? They are warriors. Pretty much all your skill points for them should be put into maxing out Armour first and then Athletics. Give them the perks for defensive bonuses, you know, things like Constitution, which is basically Vitality.

And while it is, I have a few suggestions to make it easier up until that point when you should have things under control. вЂњHang on! ThatвЂ™s the normal party!вЂќ I hear you cry. The simple solution is take one character as a rogue and the other a mage. If this is your first time playing, you are unfamiliar with these style of games or if youвЂ™ve already tried playing and got owned really badly, never fear. Your back role are going to be your main damage dealers. Make them unkillable and you can win by attrition. DonвЂ™t be too overly concerned about their damage output, as they essentially are going to be your meat shields. So the sensible option here, is put two warriors in the front row. This makes it extremely deadly, but the same also holds true for enemies. Important thing to note is that while this holds true for ranged and melee attacks, magic hits everyone in your party at once. Essentially forwards, both sides and behind you. Fairly straightforward principle: enemies can only attack the two characters that they are directly opposite, and only on a cardinal point of the compass. ItвЂ™s a square grid with 2Г—2 units per square. IвЂ™m assuming everyone reading this is going to be familiar with how the combat works. Please donвЂ™t do four mages and then ask what you did wrong. Four Mages never goes badly right?вЂ¦Right? Sword and board = overrated yeah?ДЇirst off, that was sarcasm. Here we go? Keep in mind, as my usual warning, there may be potential minor spoilers as I explain certain things. This week IвЂ™ve managed to drag myself away for fleeting moments to scribble down notes to form a masterfully written coherent article about Grimrock! (I keep wanting to say GrimlockвЂ¦) Hehe, Legend of GrimrockВ abbreviates to LOG.
