Well, I've played CSB all the way through three times so far.
Once with a strong team from Dungeon Master, once with the weakest
team (adding up health/mana/stamina) from the Prison, and once with
the weakest team (on mana alone) from the Prison. Now I'm trying it
with just Tula (the weakest single character in the Prison.) She
hasn't hit any real barriers yet. But I've changed my stategy some.
Normally the first thing I do with a team is kill the dragon on the
lowest level (for the solid key), but I don't think Tula is ready for
that yet. So we've done the first section of priest/neta up to the
Diabolical Demon Director, and a good chunk of the Ninja path and
fighter up through antmen and the 'chirpers.' One thing about using
weak teams -- you don't have to kill every monster you meet. There
are a lot of them that you don't have to encounter again once you're
past them.
