A well-developed GM Axe wielder (Ranger class) shows much inferior results (as can be seen in the Damage field of the game screen). But in actual fight, ironically, Rangers miss a lot less than Knights, especially against big fat monstazz. This winter, two thematic marathons were conducted around MM7 world in the far, far, snowy Russia - In the first marathon there were teams out of Druids, Thiefs, Monks, Knights, Rangers i.e any classes with no Supreme Magics with a common limiting requirement - to use no offensive magics - no spells, no scrolls, no wands. The second marathon was more limiting. That time all parties WERE to consist of a Druid accompanied with three Rangers. So the outcome was amazing. In extreme MM7 regions, where death-bringers dwelled, "variety" parties suffered lots of casualties, and Ranger teams virtually did not.
