Oops, didn't see that topic.

I was wrong in my first post. I only have the official patch, and not the Baldurdash one. I was thinking of BG1.. that's what I installed a Baldushdash patch for.

I've installed and uninstalled the game countless times, and I'm not sure whether this is the first time I ...

I've no idea how many times I've played this game, but certainly enough that I recently installed a couple of mods as I could sleepwalk through SoA. But one of the things that always makes me pause before skipping Irenicus' dungeon is that twice before I've found a surprise - once +2 chainmail, and ...

I recently reinstalled BG2+TOB, and also installed the official patch and the Baldurdash patch. Just started a new game and there's a Two Handed Sword +2 in the Goblins corridor just west of the first Genie. Was this added in the Baldurdash patch? If so, why?

Edit: I don't know whether it was just ...

I have no clue how to get this working. I've been trying for both BG1 and BG2 and it works on neither. I want to start a game with my brother. We both connect to the same wireless Internet. One of us hosts the game, but then the other gets the message that says joining failed. The IP address is a ...

Just pick either Anomen or Viconia to be replaced with either Jan or Imoen. Personally, I'd choose to replace Viconia with Imoen.

She only has 15 WIS, which is lower than everyone except Jaheira.

Just curious. I've never played DnD so I still don't know how many rules and things like that work.

As I see it, the plain Bard song seems to have such an insignificant effect that it may as well not be included. Am I missing something about it?

Also, remember - you can't use your thieving abilities while wearing armour that is greater than studded leather.

Whenever I play the bard-song, my Bard seems to be better at pickpocketing and stealing from shops. Is this true, or am I wrong?

If you're playing ToB too, you'll get HLAs for both Ranger and Cleric classes, which may make you prefer the multi-class.

Generally, I'm undecided on whether I prefer the Ranger/Cleric multi or dual-class. I like both better than I like the Berserker/Cleric though. The combination of both Cleric ...

What is good about the Gnomes? You get them late, they're multi-class, Tiax and Quayle have 13 and 10 wisdom respectively. Also, Tiax is Evil.

Who's the best cleric/overall healer in the game out of these five? I intentionally didn't count Quayle and Tiax because they're clearly not strong as Clerics alone. I also think Faldorn isn't in competition with the four, but she needed to be included as she's a pure Class. BTW, this is not ...

The main thing you're missing is tanking ability, so save the spot for Sarevok or take Haer'Dalis.

Personally, I think you have enough tank-power already, with Keldorn, Jaheira and Valygar, up until you get Sarevok. However, if you really want another tank for the meantime, get Haer'Dalis. If you want one off that list, I'd choose Minsc. It shouldn't take him too long to catch up with the rest of ...

Multiple fireballs is the obvious solution, along with other area effect spells. Spells like fear and sleep will also work well here, as they effect more than one enemy. Then just chop them down.

Archers are nearly as good in melee as an ordinary Ranger. If you can't solo an Archer, then you probably can't solo any Ranger.

They have both worse armor options and weapon proficiencies and the plain Ranger is hardly the best tank in the first place. Compare all of it's advantages to those of ...

Beastmaster or Wizardslayer are the worst for soloing. All spellcasters are better for soloing than these two, unless you set yourself limits such as first stat rolls or whatever. I actually also think the Archer is a poor class to solo. I know that a few have people have done it, however I think it ...

Since you'll be using Viconia, Edwin and Sarevok it also makes sense to add Korgan. Also, I feel every game should be played with Imoen. Therefore, I'd suggest replacing Cernd and Haer'Dalis with Korgan and Imoen. I simply don't like Cernd; there are better (and more versatile) tanks and the three ...

All PC Party

Inquisitor or Cavalier to lead a Good-aligned party, Blade if Evil-aligned
Barbarian or Monk, depending on preference
Ranger/Cleric (dual-class) if Good-aligned, Berserker/Cleric if Evil-aligned
Kensai/Mage
Kensai/Thief
Sorceror or Illusionist/Thief multi-class, depending on ...

Ahh, thanks.

I feel a bit stupid now. I'm assuming the version I have is "The Original Saga" then. I considered that, but I thought it was an official name that would be written somewhere on the case (which it isn't).

Again, thanks.
