However, clerics are the best class by far at healing magics, and they possess and impressive area of protection magics, as well as fair combat prowess. Thieves are a marginal class. They do few things better than any other class, but have the widest range of skills available. Thieves are specialists at thievery and covert actions, being capable of entering areas undetected where more powerful adventurers would fear to tread. They are better fighters than clerics, but lack the wide weapon selection of warriors.
Warriors live for combat and the thrill of battle.
They are the best fighters of all of the classes, but lack the subtle skills of thieves and the magical talents of mages and priests. Warriors are best for those who don't mind taking the direct approach, even when another method might be called for.
