Durlag's Tower - when to go?

***Minor Spoilers***

Just a quick question. What's everyone's opinions on when you should head off to Durlag's tower? Am I able to go there once I've finished the main quest in BG? Should I go there before I beat up Sarevok and his mates? Around about what level of character should I be before I go ...

As you said they're both powerful fighters when they've got the right gear. I'd say Sarevok is probably the more powerful all out fighter, but Keldorn has got the summon deva, truesight & dispell which is all really handy stuff especially if he's got the holy avenger vs mages.

I suppose it depends ...

*minor spoilers*

I'd have to agree with Thrifalas and recommend another character if this is your first solo attempt. However as someone who's gone through the game as a solo shapeshifter I can certainly assure you it is possible. You *may* want to install weimers 'ease of use' mod as it's got a ...

[QUOTE=Grandpa]This is my fave combo Thirfalas. Don't worry about not getting XP from level draining, it's almost always the damage that explodes them.

You could also download the valen NPC mod. You can have her join your group, her vampire abilities get better as she levels up. As a weapon she uses her 'claws' which also level drain more and more as she gets stronger. Be warned though she becomes insanely powerful, but would easily have to be my ...

What I love is the emphasis on the story line and character development. The graphics work is absolutely stunning and some thought has actually gone into the game's storyline, unlike today's trends where games have no substance and are nothing more than the latest graphics engine.

Tactics Mod - Custom Party?

Hello all.

I'm thinking of installing the tactics mod as I haven't tried it yet. I've been going through previous threads on it and want to prepare myself for the difficulties ahead. My question is, if I create my own custom party via multiplayer, will I miss out on any important/worthwhile ...

I think you had to dominate him and then use a 'dispell magic' spell on him didn't you? As already stated he's actually pretty bugged and not worth all the reloads. I usually just kill him and be done with it, it's not really worth the frustration of all that reloading.
