A little tip for you to make lvling up faster, hire the npc jan(or just a thief, but jan has high % pickpocket) from the government district. Go to the shopkeeper on the second floor in the Gaelan Bayle house(there are others but this is the one that comes to mind) in the slums. Steal all the ...

I have just finished SoA with an evil aligned party and am now playing the opposite for a different experience while I wait for that damn copy of ToB that I ordered to arrive to my games shop(!!! :P ).
I got some good help and advice from this forum regarding my first party and their setup so I ...

I just started a game now on hard difficulty since I have like I said earlier almost finished SoA. I had ordered a copy of ToB from my local games shop but they haven't got it home yet so what am a poor addicted guy to do?
First impression is that it sure seems alot more difficult. I'm playing a ...

Was just curious to hear what difficulty everyone plays on? Right now I play a party of five charachters with about 1,7 million exp each, using most of the good items in the game(SoA). I find the game fun and all but many battles I think are to easy. I realise that I probably haven't played the ...

BIG thanks everyone for all the help. However there is one thing I'm still not sure about, the use of shields on melee charachters? Right now(lvl 15) I'm using a fortress shield and the +3 one from the beholder quest. They seem to help alot but how usefull are they in the later stages of the game ...

nah, Minsc is out of the question, this is the party I am/will use. I'm trying to stay away from good alligned chars since my main charachter is evil. Valygar is someone I didn't intend to use at first because of this but I discovered he was to much fun paired with yoshimo for stealth backstabbing ...

I ahve a hard time figuring out how to equip my party and what weapon prof. to take for the npc:s. Here is the party I'm using:

Me - Half Elf, Blade, 1 katana, 1 scimitar, 3 two weapon fighting
Korgan
Valygar
Yoshimo
Viconia
Edwin

I'm thinking of giving Korgan the Crom Faeyr(since he already ...

It did the trick, nice, now I can waste away more of my time sitting alone in my apartment in front of the comp. NICE

Fable: I didn't. I had a backup at first, but after I had played for 10 minutes or so and nothing happend I deleted ut. I was just so damn happy over the change I had made so I wanted that old charachter with the "not so realistic" 18 intelligence gone asap. :P
I'm much to inlove with this new guy ...

so, only option is to start over from scratch... *sigh* I better get used to these crashes then, I have ivested far to many hours now.
Perhaps I should try to reinstall Baldurs Gate, keeping the save files of course. However that will probably don't do ****, since it probably is the save files ...

Lately the game crashes for me once every 15 minutes or so. I started after I had altered my charachter with Shadow Keeper(moving 3 points in intelligence to charisma). The version of it was pretty old(Version 1.7.0) so I'm guessing that it was some kind of bug that caused this, but i don't know for ...

sorry, damn, I didn't see that I was in the iswind dale forum when I posted my question *blush*

Did a search and this old topic came up, so BUMP ;)

heidrek: was curios about what you say about the only worthy off hand weapon being shortsword and daggers. Is this true for SoA without the exp pack also? I haven't found anything in the manual about a small off hand weapon giving less negative ...

I just started my to play baldurs gate after ALONG time not toutching anything besides Starcraft.
I had a lot of troubles choosing what class to play, have posted a few posts at this forum about it. Anyway, I now have a super strong charachter that is super fun to play and so so strong, a neutral ...

thanks for the fast reply. I'm just right now rolling stats for a berserker. Think I will go with that since it seems solid. I don't know how the experience tables looks in ToB but I'm guessing it's best to dual a zerker to mage at lvl9?

Was just curious to know when it is best to rescue Imoen? Does it have an impact on the game if I wait a long time?
Back when I played BGII I dumped her right away in Irenicus dungeon and then tried to clear out most of the quests in Athkatla before going to that island to save her.
This time I ...

I just dusted off my BII cds and deceided to give it a go. At first I started thinking about creating an evil charachter but I'm much to stuck in the whole "getting the ultimate amount of xp and items" to roleplay an evil char correctly I think.
So now I'm thinking of maybe go for an archer dualed ...
