Might and Magic VIII: Day of the Destroyer Hints

What about the two empty skill slots?

  • 1 of 4: Fill them!
  • 2 of 4: Choose skills that are not only useful at the beginning of the game, but that the character can eventually become at least a master in (consult the table on pages 16 and 17 of the manual to find out which skills those might be).
  • 3 of 4: Also, as useful as it is, don't choose to add the Bow skill if it's available. You can buy that at the beginning of the game in the village of Blood Drop.
  • 4 of 4: Note that in this game, you do all your skill buying from shops. Go to weapon shops to buy weapon skills, armor shops to buy armor skills, magic guilds to buy magic skills, etc.
