Yeah, one Wavemaster is usually a given. If you happen to find yourself up again three Physical Tol monsters, it's handy to have a character who can wipe them out, one two three.

well i usually go with blackrose, elk or mistral/wiseman and sanjuro. i really like the heavy blade type. they're so strong (its cool to see BR kill a monster with one slash). tho8ugh now since im so strong in mutation i take 2 sword types with me and leave the wavemasters behind

Well, since Bear locked (http://dothack.info/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1456) that thread I'll explain here: Each game holds full game info for each volume. So, you can get Balmung in vol. 1 w/Gameshark because his information is there. BUT, because Balmung is a story character, and AFAIK you can't call him into your party: you need the story trigger that flags his PC as well as his member address.

Right. That's rather useful. But I can't wait for OUTBREAK!!! Ah well, I guess every good thing doesn't come instantly... But what??![spoiler]Is Mia really AI? Damn... And Mistral? What happens to her? I hear that she gets pregnant or something. Oh yeah, what's up with Mia and Elk eh? What confuses me the most is... Is Elk a male or female??! I'm terribly confused [/spoiler]
[spoiler]Mia is an AI, Mistral does get pregnant, and leaves to protect her baby, ... Mia and Elk have a very close relationship, and Elk has a major crush on Mia... And Elk is a guy in real life...[/spoiler]
