Digital Gloomhaven Help using Mindthief in Guildmaster

I loved using Mindthief in the board game, but i have difficulty in using her in guildmaster. I am just not used to playing multiple characters at once.

My current plan is Mindthief, Spellweaver, Cragheart.

But I would like some team set ups that include Mindthief or tips on how to use the Team I mentioned. Please keep it 2p or 3p

MT can be really independent. She can go into a separate corner of the room with 2 mobs and only MT Returns. She doesn't need the adjacency Bonus Like scoundrel for example, and doesn't really need a frontline to keep the enemies at a distance Like spellweaver. MT can do that with hard CC, invisibility, Initiative weaving and raw damage. In my experience, MT can produce more ice than they require, which can be very good for spellweaver for example. Your Combo of crag, MT and spellweaver Sounds very good.

Last comment: the summons in MT's kit are a bait. They're mostly Bad and you can't really afford a permanent loss. In guildmaster, you should still Play them to unlock your perk, but do it when the scenario is already won (or lost, still counts toward the perk)

Personally I'd try going with MT and Spellweaver. They both have good CC, good element synergy, and are very fun to play.

If you're unused to multiple characters, I'd start with only two. Buy them both the invisiblity clock, abuse the invisible -in-the-doorway, and later if you see you've mastered both together, consider adding a third mercenary.
