I just finished with only two in my party. I did go with the much talked about faerie ninja and took along for fun hobbit rouge. All I want to say is this game was hard, a lot harder than I expected, until I got the Coc. Then it was a whole new ball game. It went from doing the same battles four or five times just to survive, to "Is that all you got? Bring it on!"
It did get a little harder in the very end and it was fun to see some really bad monsters I've never seen before in my previous four completed games. I guess now it's time to go solo.
