Alan Rickman is indeed a very fine actor...but he doesn't do Irenicus' voice. Can't remember the name of the guy who does at the moment...he plays the Evil Genius in Time Bandits amongst other things.

I think he's thinking of using the component of EoU that gets rid of all traps and locked doors and containers. Personally I wouldn't use that myself, but each to their own...if it removes one of the big headaches of soloing...well, I thought soloing was all about the headaches; finding weird and ...

[QUOTE=araknid70]BTW, anyone can tell me exactly what capabilities Kuroisan has?[/QUOTE]
13th level kensai dualled to a 14th level mage. I think he has an undroppable cloak of mirroring and a ring of Gaxx. In other words he's kitted out like very many CHARNAMEs that are out there.

Having (ab)used the wish spell considerably, I worked out that roughly the option to refresh all your spells comes up every 9 times or so when the caster has a wisdom of 18.

Welcome to these boards :)

When you say your sorcerer is weak do you mean your hit points are so low that the spells that 'Gorion' chucks at you do enough damage to kill you? If so try bumping your hitpoint total with a potion of fortitude or casting Tenser's transformation first (the scroll ...

Well, attacking under timestop is supposed to allow you to automatically hit...maybe there just wasn't enough time for Jan to make an attack, given that time traps don't last very long?

Soloing a fighter/mage/cleric would lead to a very powerful character, but the early days I'd imagine would be hell. :D
