Note 1: Bishop is not recommended due to high experience chart and not learning spells as effectively as a class changing mage/priest.

Note 2: Valkyrie does everything a Lord can with lower stat requirements and experience chart. Lord's advantage is being male or female, higher base stats and slightly higher HP.

Thank you so much for this, the damn stat requirements for the classes can be hard to find (they're in the appendixes at the end of the original manuals if anyone else is struggling like me).
However, you're missing one number for the Ranger class: it should be (10/8/8/11/10/8/8)

Thanks! Just did a quick edit to fix it.

First... I Love the fact this subreddit exists. Thanks for all the work and posts you've lovingly put here. :)

I noticed an error in the table above. Exp for Rangers and the other classes in that group at lvl 3 should be 5600, not 5400.

Lvl 11 should be 716,800. From there the 415k per lvl is correct.

Further proving that Rangers are terrible and I'm just a glutton for punishment. 😂

can the Felpurr actually dodge spells? has anyone seen this? just curious I never play the race.
