No, I didn't play a monk. That would be a little too obvious. My party wasn't all spellcasters, either. I had two full fighters (Keldorn and Misnc) and summons (fire elem. and aerial servant). But I was definitely challenged; my emphasis is on the fact that it IS possible to beat the game, more, to ...

That's gotta suck. :D

I HATED it when I spent hours after hours after hours trying to beat those mindflayer rooms in the sewers... and all I got was the stinking wand of wonder! I mean, it doesn't do anything! I only used it once, and it killed Firkraag, but then I had to kill him AGAIN because I ...

Poll/Challenge: How many weapons did you/could you beat BG2 w/o

I thought this up when looking at another post on the Interplay ToB board... they were saying how EVERYBODY is using all the really good, famous weapons that make your fighters gods and the game incredibly easy. So I compiled a list (its long!). I want to see how it compares to other people (but ...

Craig, u get Summon Cow via SK. It's a really cool spell that basically throws a cow from the heavens onto your character. THere is also an MDK2 spell in SK, although the game crashes if u try it.

Also forgot:
Shapechange: butterfly,
"because NOONE suspects the butterfly"

Everyone is obviously forgetting about Summon Cow :D :D :D

I would also really love to get Irenicus' ligthning spell, the one that actually LOOKS like lightning, just for the coolness effect.

And BTW, Summon Cow is in the game, so don't start putting up random spells that people make up for the ...

Hey man, my fighter just got five proficiencies in bowling ball :) so I'll make sort work of these guys.

It'd be great if in the end you could duke it out with all the other sons/daughters of Bhaal (a fighter, thief, etc.)

First: I haven't made the armor, mostly because I am MUCH better at thinking up these things than at putting them in the game. I'd be very much obliged if someone like Manveru made it and tried it out in the game.

Second: I did completely forget about the cloak of the stars, and it's a great cloak ...

My bad. I realise I am not very familar with AD&D, since a lot of my knowledge comes from BGII. If you could post up Hand of Vecna stats, I would change fingernails accordingly. Remember,though, that having them DOES come for a price: -5 CON, -5 DEX, -10 rep.

It seems darts are horrible. THE BEST DART (asp's nest) is +1, and even it can be prevented by the oh-so-rare protection spell cure poison :rolleyes:
