I've read that it you are going to have a multiclass with Rogue as one of the classes, you are best off taking Rogue first, so you get the big bonus to skills. They only get this at the start.

Thanks for the advice, silverdragon. I've never found the Druid shapeshifts to be useful previously, other than for a little healing, so I was curious if they would be useful in HoF. Guess not.

My Druid is actually Monk 4/Druid 8 right now. I was planning on taking him to Monk 4/Druid 22/Fighter 4 ...

HOF Questions

I'll be completing the game in normal soon, and plan to start HOF. I've read that summoning spells (Summon Monster XYZ, Animate Dead, Summon Natures Fuzzy Things XYZ, etc.) get "rejuvenated" in HOF mode, because they summon the HOF equivalents of the monsters. Is this true for all of these spells ...

Wizard & Sorc Spell Acquisition Past Level 20

Looking at the spell development for the Wizard and Sorcerer classes, it looks like the Wizard maxes out the number of spells received (4 per spell level) at experience level 20. The Sorcerer appears to max out at 6 spells per spell level at experience level 21. Other spell casters (Cleric, Druid ...

I got through the Holy Avenger quest with this party, thanks to the advice in the walkthrough. What an amazing load of experience: 4950 for each Follower, plus another 5850 for completing the quest - better than 35,000 EXP! I have this pegged as one of the most difficult battles I'll face before the ...

Lowest Level Party at Endgame

I'm playing through normal mode, and am on Dragon's Eye Level 3 right now. I'm level squatting my party, and wondering if I will need to level up to finish the game. I haven't had a lot of trouble beating anything to date. I occasionally get whacked, but a change in tactics always works. Everyone ...

For my money, Morrowind is the bext for roleplaying, largely because of the enormous number of plugins available, many of which do nothing but add roleplaying possibilities to the game. On the other hand, though I enjoyed Morrowind, I found is SO non-linear that I got totally bogged down in ...

A good question. Back in the day when I played P-N-P roleplaying games, I'd long-since given up on D&D. A game that only gives you experience for killing things seemed completely antithetical to roleplaying, at least to me. I heard a story once about a bunch of "good" players slaughtering a bunch of ...

Attack Bonuses & Multiple Attacks?

The new party I just started is almost all multi-classed, even my tank. This leads me to wonder how the game determines base attack bonuses, and when you start getting multiple attacks, if you have more than one class.

She's got 18 dex, so I knew that wasn't a problem, but I didn't realize I had to activate rapid shot.

Thanks!

Rapid Shot Bug?

I've got a new party, and I just leveled my human Fighter 1 Rogue 2. I want her to be my sniper, so I gave her the Rapid Shot feat when she leveled. When I equip her longbow, it does not acknowledge that I am getting 2 attacks, and I did a test and confirmed that I was still only getting one attack ...

The Immutable Fighter?

My 12th level human figher seems to have a curious, and irritating, ability. He seems to be immune to any friendly spells and effects that I throw at him. At least, when I look at his stats, they do not reflect any of the effects, and the icon for the effect does not appear by his name.

Haste has ...

Help with Iron Golems

I'm in the tomb in the Black Raven Monastery. I can break into the crypt to steal the loot, and even avoid the golems, but I'd really like to kill them.

The only thing I've got that seems to be able to harm these guys are some +5 (or equivalent) weapons on my fighter and ranger. None of my spells ...
