The manual and the in-game notes mention which charactersare good for noobs; human, dwarfs, halflings and half-orcs are mentioned as favorable for beginners. Personally, I wouldn't have appreciated a monk as much if I started off playing one. After a few rounds of fighters, rangers and rogues, a ...

One other method that worked for me, assuming you can't get Z to cast the True Name (she has to have the 'scroll' with her), and assuming Ammon is in your party but dead, is to lead the Reaver away from the dead bodies. If you can get far enough away (I've done this), they will regenerate (come ...

Has anyone encountered corrupted save files?... especially those created with F12? Or have you heard anything from the game makers concerning a utility to fix these?

I seem to get them quite often, and it is frustrating because I save quite often. Plenty of disk space, and I speed disk 3-5 times a ...

Did you upset them all? Maybe your influence went under -10. You might have to go and force Deekin back into adventuring.

Just don't let him sing. Use lots of silence spells...

This is ticky-tacky, and doesn't make a big difference, but I think you only get Wrongfully Accused after you win the battle with Lorne. The challenge is to settle the question. If you lose the battle, you're 'rightfully' accused.

Yup, same problem here. Seems to me that this problem only occurs with the newest patch. The only thing you can do is, as already mentioned above, to try fighting the demon between the cutscenes. When he's dead, leave the room as soon as possible. The cutscenes should stop then.

So long,

My first time through, I built a mage tower and: (Spoiler follows)

...other than having access to an extra vendor, I saw no benefit. However, at the siege of CK, there were two mages on the walls behind me, casting fireballs at the siege towers, so they may have been a result of my choice. This ...

Isnt there a way to convert bigger ones to little ones and vice versa? Try searching the forums cause I thought I remember there being a thread that said something like that.

I do this all/I] the time. Take a weak air and apply mortar and pestle. Voila, you have a faint air essence. This works ...

Where's Linu when you need her (sigh)...

Patch 1.03 mentions a fix to Pentin not becoming hostile if you attack him, which was my case, and a grea boon to boot. I suspect that he also becomes invulnerable (I bet he's not attacking you back.) Try applying patch 1.03, I bet that addresses it.

From what I've seen in most cases, haste just adds an additional attack to each round. This won't show up in your character sheet, but I assume it is at -5 of the lowest attack shown in your character sheet (although I don't believe it goes below +1). I may be wrong on that last.

Mighty means that ...

Man, I really empathize with y'all. How many times did I set Ammon Jerro to casting True Name, only to fnd him moments later in front of me, whacking away at a ghast. Sometimes even micromanaging didn't work. In this case, you had to basically give up the other players and sit on Jerro's fat *ss to ...

Well, I guess I'll have to. I hope I don't have to go to the beginning of that map. I saved at several incremental points... hopefully one of those will do.

I am in the middle of taking the 2nd of two bridges. The shadow reaver has whata-sized all the ghasts and skeletons. I immediately begin dispatching the priest, while all the other creatures start to move in. When I off the priest, all the other creatures stop attacking... they are now friendly and ...

Well, that sounds like a mess. Here's one goodie however. You will find Hlam outside the gate of the Church of Try, not in among the crowd. However, you'll probably need more influence with Khelgar before he accepts monkhood.

Ahhh, I think the fireplace is the solution to your problem. But it IS kinda hot, so you may need to quench it first...

To add even more complexity, items that give AC Dodge modifiers DO stack. These are very valuable and should be hoarded...

No, there isn't! And I'm glad I read this post. I'm loading my disk as I write (well, kinda).

Yes, I actually had that problem in NWN, thinking a Ranger would get me in, until I read the fine print. And magical enhancements to abilities don't count, darn it (such as a Nymph Cloak). Well, don't wanna start over (stubborn), so I'll just take 4 more levels of Ranger, then up my Charisma by 1 ...

My stats are S16, D18, Con14, I8, W14, Cha10, unmodified. I am aiming for Arcane Archer, so started out with 6 levels of Ranger, then switched to Sorcerer. After picking up one level of Sorcerer I was unable to use any level 1 spells, (a requirement for Arcane Archer) although I had access to ...
