Agreed on DW3- that's my favorite NES RPG and actually still my favorite Dragon Quest. A huge part of it is how you can create your team from different classes (I'm really big on DQ9 too, only they can all pretty much learn everything eventually if you grind enough so it's not quite as special). For what it's worth the gbc version is my favorite.

My last DQ3 team was Hero / Thief / Wizard x2. I did this to try something different and oh man do you really miss having a dedicated healer in the early game. Having to rely on the Hero's heal spells and purchasing giant quantities of herbs was interesting.

Yeah, and the other great part of DQ3 was planning the levels. When I sat down a figured it out, I think you could get a character through 3 jobs at level 36 for about the same as 1 single job at level 40.

I usually ended up with a bunch of thief characters who used to be wizards, sages, or pilgrims at the end game because they got great HP bonuses and it didn't take any more time to level than the single characters.
