Is something wrong with my version of the game or is it supposed to be this way?
Any help on this would be appreciated, thanks.
Arnika Road is one of the most difficult part of the game (relativly to your party) so don't dispair.
To keep your mage alive "Guardian Angel" and the "Protect" command are the way to go at low levels.
All monsters have strengths and weaknesses, the standard hack-and-slash technique from other CRPG won't work well in Wiz 8 against monsters with high AC/Damage absorption. Hit them with spells instead: The Insanity spell for example is really great against those Crabs and Juggernauts,...
