So I know that once you have 20 con, you start to regenerate hps. However, is this only for warrior classes? Or if, say, my dwarf thief has 20 con, will he regenerate as well?

Just keep in mind you won't be able to do that until mid/late BG2. So for over half of your overall gaming experience you will be limited to blunt weapons.

Good discussion guys, and I appreciate the feedback.

Weapons are a big part of RPing my characters, and I prefer bladed weapons (especially longswords). The character I want to play is a berserker dualed to a cleric but it drives me nuts not being able to use daystar (he's an undead hunter build ...

Hello all,

So I never did really understand this. If, say, you were a thief and dualed to a mage, you are able to use short bows even though the mage class doesn't allow you to.

Yet, if you were a fighter and dualed to a cleric, you can only use the blunt weapons restricted to the cleric class ...

I like to use the "dudlyville fixpacks"

Into and download to them here dudleyville.com | Dudleyfix | What is Dudleyfix? (I use fixpacks 1, 2, and 3)

If I play tutu (I like easytutu), then I install tutufix, easytutuDegreenifier, and EasyTutuHotfixes (which mainly solves the bereghost save game ...

Even in BG1 (non-tutu so no jester here) I found Garrick to be vastly underrated.

Bard song can be quite good, his lore is really handy at low levels, his spellcasting can be quite useful, and his thieving abilities are solid.

Just like in the description of the bard itself, he is a master of none ...

I didn't see this reply until now, two months later. Thank you!

I just wanted to chime in here for a moment.

I first came to gamebanshee because of their outstanding Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 walkthroughs. This would have been some time in 2000 or 2001 (I don't recall exactly).

I have been coming here for guides exclusively ever since. While I am not very active ...

So I know that you can't wear magical armour with, say, a ring of protection +1. However, as I plan my next character's gear, I'm not sure what classifies as magical armour.

Is it any armour with any magical effect? For example, the Shadow dragon's armour gives 50% acid resistance. Does that count ...

Thank you, Stworca. Exactly what I needed to know.

Apologies if I should have posted this in the Baldur's Gate I forums.

I am playing easytutu for the first time ever. However, I have played BG1 (no tutu) many many times and I have noticed something very interesting in the very first zone out of candlekeep.

There is a LOT more of everything! For ...

Very interesting. Thanks Crenshinibon and Avatar.

Very good point about it being very useful for ranged attacks and also that the crit won't work against most monsters because of helmets.

Also a very good point about it being a "peel" for the tank to get something off of a weaker party member ...

I was wondering what some of your experiences are with the Smite HLA? Does it work with archery and ranged attacks? While I know the knockback doesn't work on some baddies, does the critical strike work on knockback-immune monsters?

Anyway, any general opinions on this HLA are welcome. I'm curious ...

I posted this in the Original BG forums as well, so I greatly apologize for the double post. I'm placing this question here as well as it also pertains to BG2:

In the original Baldur's Gate, there was some really great art used during the quick saving, saving, and loading screens. For example, when ...

In the original Baldur's Gate, there was some really great art used during the quick saving, saving, and loading screens. For example, when you quick saved, a neat piece of art would display while the game saves.

I would love to get these pictures somehow. Does anyone know a place that has them ...

Thanks to the both of you. That is exactly what I needed to know.

So I've been playing this game ever since it was released any I've actually never played much with dual classing. Anyway onto the questions...

1. If I dual Class (say starting in BG1) a level 1 fighter to a Cleric, and I put two points into mace during character creation, would I be able to get ...

Loved it!

Not to derail the thread or over-complicate things, but I would love to know WHY you guys picked what you picked as well. It's always fun to read between the lines :)

Location: de'Arnise Keep - I just love this place. It always makes me feel my characters are secure and "home" when I have it as a ...

I'm glad you did the three week bump, as I wouldn't have seen this. Very fun video; BG2 deserves all the tributes in the world and this was an excellent one.
