I finally beat the game (with the good ending)! The ending parts were easy (colony zod was a joke) with blasters and day of the gods/Hour of power/day of protection
I was wondering what kind of team I should do for my next playthrough
my last party was the default KTCS party but I want a bit more of a challenge this time.
I would have posted my certificate but I don't know how.[/img]
I Beat MMVII!
Congrats.
Generally, the game gets harder the less spellcasters you use. For example, MMVI is super easy if one uses an all spellcasting party (e.g. 3 sorcerers, 1 druid). It's fully possible to beat MMVI, complete every quest, and kill every monster within five game months. MMVII is much the same; indeed, my current party is 2 sorcerers, 1 cleric, 1 druid, and they aren't having much difficulty.
Therefore, if you want more challenge, employ less spellcasters, or...
go for the party of one knight: the ultimate challenge.
As an editorial note, one thing I dislike about MMVI-VII is that:
(a) Magic literally is more effective than might. See Tennessee Ernie Ford's MM site's statistics pages.
(b) While the game is more challenging with less magic, the player's score is penalized because in-game time increases. Between beaconing and town portalling, the player minimizes the game-time it takes to travel between places, and can teleport to places of healing and back while the might party has to stop and rest.
(c) Magic parties cut down on the realtime it takes for players to go from place to place.
I feel that (c) is especially unforgivable because it punishes players for not taking sorcerers along.

I just finished a solo game of M&M6, playing with a single druid. This keeps the game moderately challenging. You deal with everything with magic and have magic to heal and boost yourself. However, druids are restricted from Light and Dark magic, which puts a dent in their strength in later levels.
Of course, with a single druid, her level was 112 at the end of the game with an effective Earth Magic skill of 67. But that was a different story altogether.
For both M&M6 and M&M7, druids are a decent compromise if you want to play it challenging (but not insanely hard) with a might-oriented party. They provide enough healing and support magic to ensure that the game does not go down to a drag (having to physically walk everywhere when you want to travel and retreat and rest whenever you take some damage can get boring). However, druids lack the firepower of the sorcerers and clerics with Light/Dark magic, so your offense will be seriously hampered. Especially if you play one druid and three might-oriented characters, your druid will have to build up many skills to cover all niches, meaning that she can't focus on one offensive skill.
In M&M7, I personally find the quests of the Dark path harder than the quests of the Light path, which is compromised by Dark magic being relatively stronger than Light magic. However... if you play the Dark path without using Dark magic, you certainly have a challenge on your hands.
A better challenge still is just playing M&M6, though... especially M&M6 with a might-oriented party. But then don't complain to me if you get roasted in Gharik's Forge or cursed to pieces in Castle Darkmoor.

I'm no pro. I abused the wishing well in the land of the giants with GM protection from magic to maximize my character's blaster skill. Blasters are broken and I had absolutely no problem with colony zod. The lincon was more of a pain but still easy with GM regeneration. I'm not crazy enough to go solo with one character yet.
As for MMVI I haven't beaten it yet due to It's Unlinear quest line which makes me wander around until I get killed by a werewolf in Blackshire trying to get kilburn's sheild

IMO, Light and Dark aren't too powerful in MM6. In MM7 druids are weak due to master limitation in magics, but in MM6 they are most powerful ones.Marelt Ekiran wrote:I just finished a solo game of M&M6, playing with a single druid.

I prefer changing monsters' stats to make the game more difficult instead of going solo or might only.
My patches: MM6 MM7 MM8. MMExtension. Tools. Also, I love Knytt Stories and Knytt Underground. I'm also known as sergroj.
