Mage question

Hello,

I decided to give a mage a try. I did the origin yesterday and now that I'm at least a little more familiar with the class, will be starting a new one tonight.

I plan on running a party of:
Alastair - Tank
Leliana - Melee DPS (rebuilt from scratch)
Wynne - Healer/Buffer

Thing is, I'd like ...

Yeah I'm mapping it out so I grab certain talents at certain levels (such as that one). Just not sure which ones I should give priority otherwise.

DW Warrior Talent rundown...

Greets all,

So I decided my first full playthrough is going to be with a DW Warrior. I have the attributes all figured out but it looks like I'm going to need all the DW & Warrior talents (and then the berserker ones also).

I was just wondering if anyone had any tips if I should focus on one or ...

Trying to make a Melee Cleric/Diplomat

I decided to dust off the OC and give it another go (never quite finished it the first time) before hitting the x-pack and as the topic states, I'm interested in a melee-focused cleric with good diplomacy skills.

Well, truth be told, I have everything figured out except a few minor stat tweaks. Now ...

Sorry for the delay (started a new job & all) but I'm going to try and get them as close as I can to 18. The biggest problem is: I'm also aiming for an 18 in CHA. I know it's not very important and I can get that item in BG2 that buffs it. I just prefer having it that high for RP related reasons.

Anywhere to buy arrows?

I'm at Dragon's Eye and pretty much getting besieged by trolls left and right, only problem is I can't find anywhere in Kuldahar to buy flame or acid arrows. Is there a place that I'm missing? I've tried the smith, the mage, the equipment shoppe and oswald's place with no luck whatsoever.

Dexterity & Constitution

Hey all,

I was just wondering, for a fighter going through the entire Saga, which would be more important (if you could only start with one at 18) dex or con? I currently rolled a char. with 18 dex and 16 con, but I've heard later in SoA and especially into ToB, your AC almost becomes negligable ...

Tutu Core Rules

I'm just curious about the description of Core Rules while I'm playing BG1Tutu... it says that it's the BG1 rules but for what difficulty? I never changed it from default in vanilla BG1 (so I'm assuming it was on normal) and I can't figure out what exactly it changes in the game (since it DOES seem ...

EDIT: I just turned the NO into a mage. However, as I gain new levels I wont receive any new stat points!! Is this a specialty for fighters only?
You have to catch up in the levels of your previous class. Ex: if you were a level 6 fighter you won't get stat points as a mage until level 7.

Having finally hunkered down and finished this great game a few days ago myself, I was struck with a small amount of things that were hinted at, but never followed through with. One of them being a scene very early on in the game when he says "expect things to change around here" when an NPC in The ...

Bit of trouble with Rubikon... (possible spoilers)

My party consist of: TNO, Morte, Dak'kon, Annah, Grace & Nordom... I'm saved/buffed right before Rubikon's room but my problem is this: After conversation with him, I pause, send my part out to attack the various constructs in the room and focus TNOs spells on Rubikon. I notice my party just stands ...

One of the main problems I see with a monk in BG1 is the fact that he'll have to use a weapon throughout the game instead of his fists (and even then only against certain enemies) since his fists won't be considered +1 until level 9. On the other hand, he will get that access to certain class ...

Hello again. It's been awhile since I made this thread, but I had a similar RP question and figured I would just ask here instead of making an entirely new one. :)

Another class I've been wondering about is the monk (with BGTutu). I've heard people say it wouldn't make sense due to there being no ...

Well, if you have the 3 CD version of the game with the expansion already installed, you have to do it before killing Sarevok for the final time. I'm getting close to that point myself and I was thinking of going in after the return to Candlekeep, personally. That seems about a good a time as any.

And thank you for cleaning up those posts. I didn't wanna look like some kind of weirdo spammer. >.>

I know there isn't a right/wrong way to do certain things or when it comes to exploring areas (I have a few ideas as to why my character would go to certain locations in certain chapters), but having gotten frustrated with my Paladin I quit playing him (couldn't stand being LG). However, I started ...

Question about Dual-Classing Imoen

First off, hi. :)

Decided to play through the BG saga again; this time from start to finish. I'm focusing on following the storyline as best as I possibly can.

I just entered the first Cloakwood Forest zone and Imoen is on the cusp of hitting level 7 as a thief and I plan on dualling her to a ...
