Yeah, reading through this, I have to say that this guy doesn't really know what he's talking about, or at least not well enough that he should be writing as self-confidently as he does.
There's a lot of bias and smartass humour, and his description of dual class Fighter/Mages is just plain wrong. He seems to vary wildly between thinking that waiting for late-game potential is foolish (Like getting the Big Metal Unit on a pure class Kensai) and that it's the best thing ever (Having Timestop and Greater Whirlwind Attack on a multi-class Fighter/Mage).
That FAQ is good but dome moments are missing For example could use a lot of bows/sling with unlimited ammunition +4 but in FAQ you could read: "There are no +4 Arrows, so you'll never be able to hit anything that requires a +4 or better weapon to hit with your bow. "

The faq is available at gamefaqs too:

This time I have double checked the url. ;-)
