Out of the 4, Warrior, Wizard , Valkyrie, or Elf which one did you always have to be and did you shoot any of the other players? I did all the time to piss them off. lol

When alone, I would play a Valkyrie for the added armor.
When with others, I would play the Warrior to tank.
I wouldn't shoot other people if I could avoid it.

I am always the wizard. And no, I don't shoot other players. Not unless they shoot me a bunch of times or something. Then it's on.

I tend to use the elf the most, I was and still am a treasure hog, with all that added speed I would race ahead as far as I could and steal all the gold then come back and help with the enemies.

I was always Valk. The kind of generalize at everything, specalize at nothing balance always suited me. This should be a poll.

I was always the Wizard, and I love to kill monsters.
I always get my treasure stolen because Im too busy trashing hoardes of creatures! Poopy.
I would kill to get ahold of a Gauntlet cab, thats for sure...

Elf ... power up magic = good as wizard and their arrow shots can at certain angles shoot through gaps to kill generators.
Also, powerup shot speed and power and boom ...
Warrior is good too ...
Some levels are better and usually when solo, for the bad levels, just wait it out and let walls turn into exits and leave.

I agree. I edited the original post to include a poll. 80sGamer if you have a problem with this, PM me and we can discuss.
FYI, I was the Valkyrie, good balance, fighting, and magic.
Nah, I didn't shoot players, unless they started it! (intentionally)

Warrior. Simple and easy.

Valkryrie :(. Yeah, everyone always made fun of me for that, but we'll see who's laughing last when I got the most balanced character in the game; MUAHAHAHA!!!
btw, does that nude code in Gauntlet: Legends work?

Warrior always and forever, always and forever.
When 4 of us got together, our games usually went "Kill the first ghost...and then kill each other"
Good times.

Pffft! It's all about the Wizard. Best magic, and the rest of his mad hype skillz!!!eleven!!1one! are very well balanced.
In summation: Wizard. :D

I was the Elf, and only sometimes the warrior.
I remember playing long hours of Gauntlet II for the original Game Boy and eventually getting all those power-up potions after you defeat the dragons, to the point where my warrior one time was just as fast (or faster) than the Elf did initially, was armored-up like mad, had great attack, and had Wizard-level magic skills.

Valkyrie everytime if for no other reason than the joystick being in the "normal" right hand position.

Great topic. My choice was always Wizard. What a great game Gauntlet was.

always the elf, because i used to play doubles on the real machine with a mate, and they were always the warrior, the elf was directly at the other side, and made it easy for doubles!
the elf ain't bad either, pretty nippy and better than the wizard!

When my wife and I play Gauntlet, I'm usually the Elf and she's usually Valkyre. That's one thing I like about Gauntlet II, especially when playing on my cabinet, is that you can stand anywhere you want and play anyone you want.

Was almost always the elf, being able to shoot through the corners/walls and take stuff out was a blast.
The speeed was great too, especially for avoiding "death".
