Mage school with a warrior

[Starranger]

Hi, off course the following is depending on your way of playing the game.

As a Warrior I have decided to max out order and chaos and take some items for +Mana. Order and chaos for maximum in Resurrect (you got it definately after the return of the Iquisitor sword to where you got the contract) and sacrifice (for gratis troops, together with resurrect, paladins, inquisitors and time back). If I have enough mana runes I also max. distorsion and take some Transmute.
My way of playing the warrior is everytime to use the rage point as endless mana source (untill turn 20). Use your dragon or the spell Calm rage to transform rage into mana. Together with inquisitors and paladins you can got easy no loss battles. [big difference to Paladin skill resurrect, then I use black Knigths, and only them]. So I try to got ~60 mana points due to items and non magic skill tree things.
Because I only use some of the spells, I never choose alchemy, because I got enough crystals by destroying artefacts, buying and digging (most important thing on hard and impossible I think: digg, digg, digg).

Yeah thats one more thing i missed about this game... The digging thing. I thought treasure searcher was the same skill as robbers have, except it would not only teleport to the chest but also open it. I Just recently picked treasure searcher at pet lvl 27, and I can imagine how much it could've boosted my income if I chose it earlier.
You mention a quest which provide the ressurection spell? Where du I get this quest? I could prolly just search for it, but if you remember it...?
I agree on Alchemy. I never run out of Crystals, since I only use them on spells I need.
Distortion tempted me with the lvl 3 trap. Poisioning is just so tremendously buffed in AP. I guess I'll find a sacrifice spell soon enough, but one point i chaos should be enough to begin with.
I bought the Ancient Amulet mostly for the runes, but i guess it suits any character well due to the easy int and mana

It is the headhunt on Thomas Torkve. You got the quest from Father Maximus, on the bell tower at Scarlet Wind (NE, small island). The place to find him is random: Montero underground or Elona underground. After the figth you got the Sword of the Inquisitor. Bring it to father Maximus. He offers you gold, rehject it and you will got 4 spells. One of them is resurrection.

Thanks.. I got it, and I maxed the Order school. There seems to be some decent spells there. Resurrection will properly not be used much. The lack of intelligence makes it a rather expensive spell. 30 mana to raise 4 demonologists... Pff I just raised 5 red dragons with Time back!
