Neverending story

I tried installing it on my new PC recently, but to no avail. Thanks to the posts above, I'll try it again over the next while. It's definitely a game I play every year or two. I'd say over the years I've spent hundreds of hours playing it but never got anywhere near finishing ...

@Philos

I wasn't aware that it affected rolls for saves vs spells / detect illusions. Are you sure about this? I've never seen anything in the maunal about it - was it left out accidently or is it from the D&D rules?

Ok 19 it is then. But anything over 19 seems unneccessary. This seems a little unbalanced when compared with Wisdom which provides additional spells to Clerics (the Higher the Wisdom, the higher the level of the bonus spells). Fighters see the benefit of trying to get as high a STR as possible ...

I'm having the same prob

I'm in chapter 6 and having the same prob. I only have Jaheira in my party (no Cernd), and I figured she wasn't permitted to challenge due to the loss of her Harper status (just guessing), as I haven't finished that part of the storyline yet.

Is there a quest relating to the Guarded Compund in the Temple District? I've never found found anything related to it while playing. The empty potion bottles suggest that there is more to it than merely going in, killing them and taking the cool equipment.

Any info would be great

Why not just use invisibility

I always found that the easiest way to defeat the demi-lich was to just cast improved invisibility on the party when he appears and then bash him to death with the appropriate weapons. He doesn't have any other spells in his arsenal so cannot dispel invisibility.

Hi there,

I've been playing BG for a long time and understand most issues, but I've never really understood Magic Resistance. I know that having a high magic resistance reduces/eliminates the effects of magic cast on a character. However, how exactly does it work?

For example take a character with ...
