Dryad's braid

Hi
After the Dryad quest, I am left with a "dryad's braid" in my inventory.
I've not received this in previous play-throughs. What is it? Do I need it for something?

Okay, I got it it now.

Rebound-boy Tsujatha started waxing poetic about his unrequieted love again so I gave him a personal quest to go get her back, if that's what he wants. If he's as evil as he pretends (although I've seen no evidence of), he should have no trouble knocking off the new hubby and ...

Thank you again, for all the info. I just love these posts - every time someone offers a new way of looking at things it's like you can play a whole new game (or parts thereof)

Galraen: PC is neutral good and Tsujatha has no problem with it. I don't really get the all-good or all-evil party. I just ...

Thanks for the replies! Lots of things to think about.

I agree with the comments about Minsc and Jan, but I've had them with me (I adore Minsc) a few times and I just want to try some of the other NPCs. Ditto Anomen and Jahiera. I read somewhere that Viconia is an excellent cleric.

Regarding thief ...

Party advice, please. Mage mayhem

Hi,
I think I need to get a better handle on spell casting. So I started a new game that will rely more heavily on magic AND is fun to play in terms of story and NPC interraction.
This is the team that is coming together, but I wonder if I'm going to be in trouble because of lack of melee fighters ...

Oh, boy, it's posts like these that make me feel like an utter noob.

I've only played one Sorceror (Kelcey mod) and I didn't even know you could "pick" spells, the way you can for mages. He just got multiple copies of new spells at various levels and I figured that's how things go for that class ...

question re weapons rating

Hi
Bear with me for this possibly inane question.
How do you read the weapons rating for an item? For example, if I have a sword that's 1D10 +1 and one that is 2D4+2, which is the better one?
I get the bit about Thac0 and various other bonuses/penalties, but things like 2D4 confuse me.

Can anyone ...

Sarevok alignment (spoilerish maybe)

I've just started ToB and traded Minsc in for Sarevok.

I did not make him swear a geas and he's already talked to me twice about things that I believe will affect his alignment.

Now I'm wondering if it's worth trying to get him to change alignments. For one, the not-so-angelic replies to his ...

Tweak confusion

I know there are a lot of posts about patches and mods here, but I think the reason I'm confused is because there are so many, and some of them probably out of date.

When it comes to installing the game and various patches, what is the difference between the G3 Tweaks and the Ease-of-Use mod? I ...

Thanks for the replies. I had an idea and wonder if this would be fun.

MORE SPOILERS AHEAD

Okay, so I'm mostly through chapter 2. I've NOT done the planar sphere, trademeet, Haer Dalis, or finished Jahiera's pieces.
Edwin did turn out to be lots of fun and we've consummated our little fling ...

Edwin romance and the scrolls (SPOILER)

Please don't read unless you've played through Edwin's quest before.

I installed the Edwin romance and flirt pack. Lots of fun and some interesting conversation. He's practically likable :)

However, having him turn into a girl is probably not conducive to this relationship and I believe I read ...

Tsujatha Mod - Broken?

I'm sorry if this isn't the right forum for this question. I found a forum about Tsujatha elsewhere but it is closed. Might be some spoilers here.

I have installed, in this order:
SoA
ToB
ToB patch
a tweak by Weimer (I think that's the name)
banter pack
Tsjuatha

I'm playing a neutral good half-elf ...
