I'd drop the spell focus: abjuration and get POINT BLANK SHOT instead if you can. My wizard ended up running out of spells pretty fast so half the time he stood right behind Grimgnaw launching fire-bolts at the enemies.

Personally I found quicken spell pretty useless because it raises the spell's ...

Well the party I have now in my new game is:
Meer- Fighter/thief
Anomen
Haer'Dalis
Aerie
Nalia
I plan on getting Mazzy next.

This is all part of my plan to use all the NPCs in the game through SoA and ToB before NWN comes out! I have used all other characters except for Cernd, Viconia, Edwin and ...

Yea well, Harry still has pretty bad Thaco and anything he can hit with Chaos isn't usually worth killing using dex drain. :rolleyes: You could however try improved haste + tensors but thats too much preparation just to kill something with dex drain that Harry could just as easily kill with ...

No you do not need ToB to play the monk. Although I would get ToB at the same time as SoA just for continuities sake. (ToB continues the story) Oh and a good choice as a first character (if your playing monk that is). Monk was my first character I used. :D

Rangers get the ranger stronghold in the Umar Hills Xyx. As for the Cleric stronghold problem... are only priests with kits allowed a stronghold and vanilla clerics get no stronghold (due to the game not knowing what temple to put you in) and if so, isn't this a bug? Or do vanilla clerics have to go ...

His sword does drain Dex BUT it lasts for 5 rounds. :o Usually not enough time for HD to hit the monster to actually kill him from dex drain. Interesting idea though. Anyone know how long the Wisdom drain lasts on that wakisashi?

Oh and a little problem with Korgan putting points into Katana to use ...

The only way to keep Drizzts stuff is to use the export trick (export into new game, drop items while the screen is black) but takes too long OR you could CLUA the items back in after the mage leaves. :D

It does take some getting used to but just the ...

For the record Katanas were hyped up in SOA but aren't anymore with ToB. In SoA Celestial Fury and Dakkon Zerths Blade were some of the best weapons in the game. Also in SoA, longswords weren't that great IMO and niether were bastard swords or scimitars. With the addition of ToB all types of weapons ...

I took advantage of his dual wield skills and gave him a Katana and Mace. I used Celestial Fury and the best mace on hand at the time. You could also have him use the Flail of Ages or a bastard sword. :D

NWN isn't trying to recreate the PnP experience by letting your character perform anything a PnP character could, it's trying to recreate the PnP experience by adding the human element into gaming. For example the DM (innovation) can take over an NPC so you can have realistic conversations with him ...
