Solo mode?

Does NWN2 have a solo mode for characters who need to go stealthy or such, like in KOTOR? It's annoying for my stealthy rogue to have his noisy fighter buddy tail him.

XP distribution

Does XP get split amongst party members, ala BG2, or does the main character get all the XP, with his party members advancing with him?

That Twi'lek who got sold into slavery

On Telos there is a twi'lek woman who was sold into slavery after her boyfriend wagered her in a pazaak game. Is this at all legal? If it happened in Hutt space and the woman was the man's slave, then it would make sense, but Telos is Republic territory and she was a free woman. Plus, slavery is ...

Is there a cap to attacks per round?

My Jedi has a double-bladed lightsaber, Master Flurry and Master Speed. Altogether, this should give me five attacks per round, but when I fight enemies I never see more than four damage markers. Does this mean the maximum number of attacks one can get is capped at 4?

G0-T0's backstory

On Wikipedia it says G0-T0 is actually that first droid intelligence that the Ithorians on Telos "lost", and that it abandoned its work because it felt it could do more good for the Republic by joining the Exchange and manipulating galactic commerce in the Republic's favor. No matter how much ...

Nar Shaddaa is the hardest (and longest) of the planets. The Jekk'Jekk'Tar is not so bad, but Goto's yacht is murder if you're not packing the Destroy Droid power (in which case it is rather easy).

I always found Korriban the quickest and easiest planet, but then again Korriban is usually the last ...

Planore

In the Refugee Sector, a woman paid a scammer named "Planore" 50 credits to find a pilot to take them off Nar Shaddaa. Out of curiosity, does this guy ever appear in the game? She named him, so I figure he might appear somewhere, allowing the hero to reverse the scam (like Jorran on Dantooine).

If you have Two-Weapon Mastery and your off-hand weapon is balanced, you suffer no penalty to your main hand and -2 to your off-hand. If the off-hand weapon is NOT balanced, you suffer a -2 penalty to both hands.

So, if I have Two-Weapon Mastery, what penalty do I suffer when wielding a double ...

Are double-blade

Characters wielding two weapons get a reduced penalty if they use a "balanced" weapon in the off-hand. Is a double-bladed weapon considered "balanced"?

Ok, got it, thanks. Was confused because in Kotor 2, all the classes get +1 per level.

Do you also get Weapon Finesse for free in this game?

Does Charisma reduce the extra cost of opposing side powers like in Kotor2?

Attack bonus

Do all the classes in Kotor have the same attack bonus progression? In Star Wars d20, soldiers get +1 per level, whilst scoundrels get +1 every one or two levels.

I've played once on Dark Side and didn't notice it to be any easier than the light side. You pretty much have to do most of the quests the same way (the light/dark choices usually come at the end of a quest, whereupon you decide whether or not to screw the questgiver over).

If you have the Sling of Evard from the bonus merchant, you can take on those higher-level opponents. The rate of fire is low, but if you have ToB and you're soloing you'll eventually get Whirlwind attacks, and then you can shred anyone.

Another tip: the best armor you can wear is the Shadow Dragon ...

Stoneskin and spell deflection will protect you from weapons and spells. They also protect you from traps (so forget about dual/multi thieves). You can throw in a few extras lik improved invisibility if you're hard-pressed.

Monks start of rather weak but can become freaky powerful at the higher levels. You can't wear armor but your AC keeps going steadily down whereas other classes' will level off when they can't find better armor (at 30th lvl I got -17), and eventually you can become immune to magic (natural magic ...

I think the sorcerer is the best solo class there is. There is almost nothing the other classes can do that the sorcerer can't with a spell. You can open locks with knock and magical protections can protect you from traps. If you're solo, you will get some major-powerful nukes early on (you need to ...

Stat tables

I've lost my BG2 manual and I'm wondering where I can find on the web the tables at the back of the book that detailed how the various ability scores benefited you (eg your attack bonus when you have 18 Strength). Is this info available anywhere?
