Is there anywhere that I can get a world map that I can look at for longer than two seconds?

Edit: I kind of want to know who best to take on what missions.

There should be a map on the game catalog when you purchase the game. Sevelin is from Kva-that much I know. I get confused with the Wlydren and Kellemerendel.

Sevelin is good to have around because warriors are naturally good at many things. He gets good archery training and is good at melee too. Shima is good for a ranged weapon expert, Nathalie is good for damage and Jenell is like Nathalie is with damage except she is more hardy.

It should be right there. Just remember that any of the characters can be deadly with ranged weapons. My blade master was probably my best ranged character out of all of them that I made. I also played a shadow walker and a shaman as a ranged weapons expert. Shamans aren't the best at it, but they are hardy as shit. They can take the most punishment with high dexterity as their health lvls are through the roof. You might be able to get them to 500 health if you get all the way to lvl 30. They just need 2 equipments of critical chance on it and they're good to go.

You can find most, if not all, of the Avadon maps here

If you're on windows then go to the Start button and navigate to
All Programs/GOG.com/Avadon - The Black Fortress/Documents/Map of Lynaeus

This will give you the world map that you see for the two seconds :)
