> Hello: What is the lowest experience level that you have been at for each dungeon level? One of the reasons that I ask is that I'm trying to figure out what would be a good dungeon level to have them use to build up their stats. Their experience level needs to go up. They are only around experience levels 14, 15, and 16. My Knight seems to be fast when fighting but slow when invoking things. I think I have him wearing boots of speed. I decided to move them back to Kaliti. Lyesis was great for exploring level 7 but lousy for using other levels. Thank you.

Hmmm. . . . Other than level 1, where we all start at 0, I haven't kept track of that. I think I had a party at levels 12 and 13 when they were based out of Lyesis, but this is kind of a deceptive stat at times -- If I change a Knight over to an Assassin, for example, he or she will still have the hit points. I currently have an assassin who started off as a Sorceror and who still has spell points.

There have been a couple of players who have finished the game with Level 0 characters.

There are places on a lot of the levels where you'll find a big bunch of monsters. If you go to one of those you should level up quickly. Once you get down to the lower levels, you will be levelling up pretty much every time you step out the door.

Are you invoking things during combat? That might be why your knight is slow. You try invoking something while there's an armada of Wyverns heading for you. I assume you have spellcasters; maybe they should have the invokable item.

I think I normally went with Boots of Maneuvering for Knights. Their speed will increase naturally, and will be helped by finding the two items of extra-specialness that are specifically marked as being for Knights.

My first party didn't mind Lyesis too much. They stayed and levelled up a bit. The next town you'll find will be conveniently located, but will have other problems. That's all I'm saying.
