What would be the best character for me to choose to get the most interesting party members? I was actually thinking about making a healer of some sort because I've heard the only real dedicated healing type party member you get is REALLY annoying.
Mages aren't OP unless you are playing on easymode. On hard your aoe's hurt your own teammates also so you can't just smash buttons and watch everything crumble. But I would agree that having a healer as your main isn't a bad idea as you can lose a few of your party members through actions and if you lose your only healer you are pretty much screwed.
