Can't kill Ravager (glitch?)

I can't do ANY damage to the Ravager. tried everything I know how to do. I lowered his MR by 180% but that didn't help. I cast spellstrike 3 times. He simply isn't taking any damage and I can't figure out why.

Please help

The four character's that I'm using right now are Korgan, Edwin, Sarevok, and Loth (pc sorcerer).

I'm thinking about dropping my brother however. I went through SOA with just Korgan, Edwin, and me, and I often get the feeling that Sarevok isn't really making a difference. The main reason that I'm ...

Glory, this is totally off the subject, but I remember back in the day when we talked about soloing monks and sorcerers back when you were Genesis! I have changed my name a couple of times for the same reason!

I have finished playing a truly evil solo sorcerer. It focussed very much on roleplaying his evil alignment, and it made the game very hard. I missed out on TONS of xp, but 1 it doesn't matter because I was soloing and 2 it was the most fun game i've played yet.

I tried to do the most evil thing I ...

i forgot about a couple. First of all, I Hate Gaalan's "Coo!" THat has got to be the most annoying sound.

I really like the dialogue with the poor beggar in the bridge district, the one where you are trying to get the hide from him. Pretty much anyway you go about it is funny, but I go about it ...

hmmm apparently this is a mud-slinging thread
Haven't encountered too many of those so I think I'll drop in my 2 cents.

of course korgan won that fight, he has a str of 24 from the crom! (25-1 from the shield)
he should win every time under that circumstance, cause the fight isn't fair.

i dare say in any weapon duel, any char with 7-8 more pts of strength will win every time.

if you want a real test give them them ...

Honestly, try the tests yourself. Give I didn't feel like warping in another HoB. However, the results were pretty onesided either way. Keldorn didn't seem to stand a chance.

Heck, give Keldorn the HoB and Korgan no helm. I doubt it will make any difference.

I accidentally contradicted myself. Keldorn does have gauntlets on for the fight. Stupid copy + paste habit

Methinks Keldorn could easily beat Korgan if both had about equally powerful equipment on, i.e. Korgan with Firestone or even Crom Faeyr an' a shield, Keldorn with Carsomyr an' Gauntlets o' Dexterity.
not so. I tested it. While I did not conduct a test as well recorded and accurate as the ones ...

I don't think that a simulcrum doubles your spells. The simulcrum comes in several levels lower and lacks your highest level spells.

IIRC the casting time apples to when you first cast the spell (chain contingency)and not when the spells that are selected are activated.

Does that answer your question?

I thought that Charisma is what let you talk him into letting you have the chests contents. Are you positive that it is wisdom?

I would spend points on Intellegence before wisdom but also avoid min/maxing a character for roleplaying reasons

I believe that the effect is cummulative and applies both to the Human and (in the case of a shapeshifter) werewolf form.

favorite dialogue (non-romance)

so which character's dialogue do you like the best. OR the least.

I love Korgan's dialogue. He usually voices what I'm already thinking. "quit you whining I'm gonna gut you" type stuff

My least favorite is Aerie. Well, no I take that back. All of the Lawful good characters tie for my least ...
