what does the joker class DO?
all the other classes have a clear cut reason for existing both as a playstyle or team component, but the joker class is strange

how are you supposed to play joker?

Thats just it, I think. The joker is suppose strange. But he has some neat things as well. His rocks weigh alot and I believe that allows him to do a lot of damage when thrown so keep collecting them and using them. Next, he has the confusion spell. Adding more randomness to his kit, pretty useful if you ask me. His speed is pretty good too seeing as he has nothing weighing him down. Dunno how his stat growth goes but considering he starts with the ability to learn confuse, he might have greater spell use. Dunno. Aside from that, I just think he was constructed to be something unusual for players to experience without being a character thats just plain "hard" mode. I mean the Devs could have made him just a character that starts with nothing and has no uniqueness but instead they opt for something strange.
I hope someone who's played him more to completion can chime in.

Confuse is alright. Got two mobs near each other? Cast it on one and they'll fight. I'm not sure you get experience from it but it certainly allows you to keep two enemies at bay and during that time you can sneak up on the stronger foe and attack them once or twice to get them down.
Levitation is necessary to get to certain hidden areas in the game and can make it easy to traverse since you float over pits and water. However! Floor traps still spring if you float over them so watch those holes on the ground. Good ring to have!

I just realized, he has a rock in his inventory that gives -20 weight. Huh. Pretty funny.

Jester/Joker starts with a ring of levitation, which is all you need to finish the game.

Haha. Yeah. Add me on Steam. I really enjoy multiplayer in this so I'd be down for a game any time I'm on and playing.

The joker is a class that I only play with a wizard teammate (you can learn forcebolt from him right at the start). joker starts with 200 gold and some rare to extremely rare items. It is a for sure way to get levitation for your entire playthrough (which is critical to timely minetown entrances, leaving the haunted castle, and underworld visits)

also the joker starts with a scroll of food I believe, which you can use to skill up your appraise quickly at the beginning
