random few questions

[whick3]

where can i find the Mauler and the Muramasa?
also, say you were wanting to play until you got a party of 4 to "level mid 30's plus" what 4 classes, could you spent the most amount of time playing/training and still have fun with it, i'm thinking of running a part of 4 until they become demigods,

Maulers can be bought from Ferro.
Muramasa: See the Treasure Chest thread a couple down from here.
If you practise a lot, some Hybrids get pretty extreme fairly quickly, like Samurai and Ranger, others may take into the late teens: Monk, Lord. Bishops start getting a lot of kills by Quicksand as early as L19, depending on your Realm skills, and get extremely deadly with Powercast max and all the other mass instakillers. And if you got a Doom and Powerstrike, it's a real kick.
Gads zoom up in their effectiveness around 18 when the Asphyxiation starts, and the maxxed Omnigun is amazing--but you gotta carry tons of ammo.
Fighters can be very powerful, too, but they hit a bit of a wall when their Combat skills are maxxed, whereas casters keep improving noticably into the high 20's. Once you get over 30, there's not much more you can do, unless you haven't tried Stealth yet, and change class to get it. (or Instawhack, or Dual Wield, or Magic...)
A Rogue backstabbing with Light is another good one for voluminous inflictage, but is also another one-trick pony like the Gad' a two-tricker.
Bards max out on their increasing effectiveness once they max Music and get to L18--if you're going into the 30's, a change to any caster could be an interesting side challenge.
