I've just reached the red mines (2nd area). Here is my party's stats:
L4 Half-Orc Barbarian: 18 END, 68 HP
L3 Human Paladin: 14 END, 27 HP
L3 Human Archer: 16 END, 27 HP
L5 Dwarf Robber: 20 END, 65 HP
L4 Gnome Cleric: 17 END, 28 HP
L3 Elf Sorcerer: 15 END, 12 HP
How badly did I mess up by not rerolling so that the sorcerer has 20 END (or whatever elf max is)? What about the others? I made sure their primary stat is 20, but as you can see for the rest I felt rolling 14+ was acceptable (I was focused on accuracy.
The above is my primary question, but I have a couple of other questions since there's so little info about this game:
b) I didn't realize the robber had Luck as prime statistic (the GameFAQs walkthrough didn't mention it, I later saw it in the official manual). I left it at 17. Is that another grave mistake?
c) In Vertigo (starting city), merely opening doors would randomly knock out a character. What's the deal with that? Is this some nonsense about hidden traps? In normal city passages?
d) Is there anywhere that provides a comprehensive summary of the story before MM4? I read Wikipedia and the fandom wiki, so I have some clue what's going on, but they were just 1 paragraph.
