[RunesOrder]

Due to my bad partyformation ( all fighters and a sorcerer ), I can't use the Open lock skill which I badly need to play the whole game and even now to get further...

Any suggestions ??

By the way, I got away without the skill all the time until the Lower Keep of The Catacombs, never had to use it really, ould always force the door open....
I didn't find any scrolls to use as well ..

best thing to do is next time you level up have one of your fighters multi task to a rough and you shoul be ok through the rest of the game at first level rough.

its best to also have a paladin as there best skill is to lay on hands wich will help when a mamber goes down during combat the can bring him back to about half strenght.its also good to have a cleric as there are items that only they can use.

You can always bash doors when you can't pick the lock. You can also pick up a level 12 rogue named Tudo later on the game. I found rogues more usefl for remove traps than fore picking locks.

However, if your party leader has a few rogue levels and opens all of the doors you will find that they will be one or two levels ahead of the rest of the party from the extra experience.

That's a hard lesson to learn if you've never played a D&D game. Rogues are vital to the gameplay. They also benefit due to getting increased experience points for finding and removing traps and opening locks.
