Michael, a human whose strength is fighting

This reminds me of a rather funny bug: Michael actually is the best mage of the four. At least if you can get him to mage level 2 (or was it 3?) which is glitched and sets his magics skill way above Ak'Shels's. So, if you want to play a real powerhouse character, who is even cheesier than Conrad, pick Michael and be a bit patient with him.

(Might only work in the CD version though)

You're right! I started replaying this recently and after patiently getting his mage skill up to 2, suddenly he was gaining magic points left and right. Made things much easier.

The funny thing is that as far as I remember you have to train him quite a lot until he reaches level 2 (I think I used a lot of scrolls and those wasp-swarm thingies). So I guess they never noticed this bug because they thought (and were probably right) that almost no one would bother leveling him as a mage anyways.
