A little question to Captain Haegan.

Cernd used the physical mirror spell and Haegan attacked him with the right group management.
The throwing axes weren't reflected immediately, but after a short time Haegan received the cumulative damage
for several axes and died instantly. I like it, but is it the intended behavior of the spell?

By the way, i cant beat TorGal. Damn. I never get him below badly injured. It takes too long and my buffs fade away. Then the usually stuff happens.
Storm of Vengeance, Hold Spell, Greater Commands and Strength Drain. Hmm, I need different tactics.

You cannot be very picky early game since not all NPCs are available just yet. I have a similar party setup but I haven't even started the game properly yet.


I think you'll want to aim for the following type of party throughout the game.
a ) 2-3 melee warriors
b ) 1-2 divine healers/protectors
c ) 1-2 mages (who carry anti-spellprotection and anti-combatprotection)
d ) 1 good dispeller

Some NPCs fit more than one of the abovementioned categories.
Anomen can go melee and cast some fast protection spells on himself and the group (low casting time to prevent interruption).
Keldorn will be a good melee warrior but he is also a great dispeller of illusions.
Haer'Dalis can be a good dispeller due to his swift and easy leveling, but he's also a good melee fighter or a spellcaster.
Etcetera...

I think IA v5 is about picking your fights at the right time. Do some simple tasks first and follow up with the tougher ones.
