Dungeon Siege Hint - Restock Points

Restock whenever you can. You won't get a better deal by hanging on to stuff for later in the game so sell it all. Then buy the best gear that money can afford.

In general, the stuff you can find in the store is better than the stuff you are wearing or the stuff you will find. There are exceptions, of course, but unlike some other games, the stores in Dungeon Siege are useful for more than just dumping junk and getting gold.

You will still need to dump all the useless stuff you picked up along the way, but more importantly check out the gear that you can buy and plan ahead.

Always give your characters the best that they can afford. There is no reason to short yourself. It will make a difference down the road. The better equipped you are then the easier of a time you will have.

If you have to skimp on something, then choose the areas that won't affect you as much. Your mage, for example, needs the best spells but not necessarily the best armor. Your archer needs good armor, but that backup melee weapon can be anything. Your fighter needs the armor more than he needs the weapon.

Get only the spells that you need. The temptation to buy and try every spell out there can be pretty high but be sure to compare the stats on the spells. If you won't do more damage then it may not be worth it to get the next spell. Also, play around with the spells that you find before going to the store. The price is the same new or used, so figure out what you want to keep before restocking.
