Actually, soloing fighter in BG is possible, and is in fact quite easy(even I can do it). As for the fight with Sarevok, just get a lot of potions(speed, healing, invisibility, giant strength, heroism, etc) and you'll be OK.

I've been returning to the Underdark several times, so it is ok if you missed a few items before. But Adalon shouldn't be there any longer because when u get out of Underdark, it is either:
1.u killed her
2.u helped her and she left

1. Spoilers are what you shouldn't know if you haven't played through the part of the game and don't want to spoil the surprise. Cheese is abusing the weaknesses of the game's engine to your advantages, that no sane human DM will allow you anyway. For better definition of cheese, try the search ...

No, it's not RPGing, not every thief wants to pickpocket,e.g why shouldn't a bounty hunter focus on trap setting? Although I would do that at low levels, imagine:
Fighter: This plate mail is just damn expensive!
Thief: Why worry about money? I can just pickpocket some nobles.
Mage: Let me charm them ...

Did you try setting traps, then use summons to lure them out one at a time(technique required), while yourself hide in shadow/cast invisibility to ready for a mighty backstab?
If you can't kill them, you can always sneak pass that place with invisibility.

Hind in shadow, and let the archer kill the kensai for you(if the archer has faster than normal movement, that is). The bonus AC vs missile can help u defeat the archer, but I don't think u have much chance going toe to toe with a kensai.

No, you still don't need Devas, as someone has posted how fun turn undead can be, and it's about the same time you get that lousy "high level" summon.

I think it depends rep. My neutral evil thief got a lacoh's minor drain as 1st special ability, his rep. was 8 then. Later in Ch3 he got cure light wounds, which is a "good" reward, when his rep. was 13.

Wands are very handy in boss fights in BG1, esp. the frost one. The other wand I like is the magic missle one, coz non-mage can also use it for spell interruption. However, some wands just suck: wand of sleep, fear, etc..

Most deadly monster COMBO

What do u thinks is the most dangerous monster combo? It's the mind flayer/beholder combo in the underdark IMO, your characters gets stuned easily, then the beholders keep firing all sorts of spells at ur casters, making them unable to dispel the effects. Even worse is they dispel your spell ...

Soloing totemic druid continued

After returning from hell, Nafuyr got immunity to +1 or less weapons and found it a life-saver in the city of Saradush, where he got swarmed by enemies for a couple of times.
He managed to kill Yaga Shura in no time by using energy blades and the sim. helm, nothing can survived this, until then.

Nafuyr is back, everyone!
He cleared all the subquest in Trademeet and went back to DeArnise Keep to have his revenge. Torgal was much less a threat to him as the 2 giant trolls then, and got down with a fairly exciting melee.
With amulet of power+ chaotic command, Nafuyr destroyed the whole vampire ...

After clearing the circus tent and copper coronet, plus a few random encounters, Nafuyr now gets fire elementals and it really kick a$$! The whole druid grove is a joke with the help of fire elementals. I don't find too much difference between totemic and normal druids now, except the spirit animals ...
