Compsognathus posted... If I remember correctly, I think you mentioned that you wanted to kill the The Death Knight which prompted the recommendation. That or it came up because someone said Bernie was bad and that is like the go-to counter argument.
But yeah, in non-Maddening modes there is zero reason to do it beyond personal pride. Like I guess you get an extra Dark Seal but lol Dark Mage, lmao Dark Bishop.
And then find a good audiobook or podcast because you are in for a miserable hour of gameplay.
Oh yeah, that's right. I had heard of the
DK beforehand and wanted to beat them and got recs for it. But doing things for personal pride is part of the joy in these games! And
Dark Bishops suck but I still remember making Claude one LOL. I still had to turn him back to
barbarossa for most of the final maps. The pro was that he could actually use that magic bow you only get at the final map in VW IIRC
