Scott G. I'm curious as to why you would take a high attack over a high AC in the OC, or any other campain for that matter. In my experiance, you spend a lot less time and money on healing if you make your melee characters as untouchable as possible. I've fought with builds that had deadly attacks ...

Arryjan,

A couple more ideas... Take "Weapon Finesse" early, and Dexterity is by far the most important stat for a Monk. The starting stats you mentioned below look great. From here on out put everything into Dexterity. You're choice of party looks good except that Qara is way more powerful than ...

Sorry if this is a little too late. I have ranked the companions in the order that I would take them based on overall usefullness in getting through situations, and of course winning all the fights:
1) Neeshka - You need a rogue in every group. Plus she's a pretty good fighter. Particularly if you ...

I can't help with the access violation, but I can offer up a few things to try... if you already did, than sorry for being repatative. :-)

1) Try dispelling any animal companions etc. before traveling back. I've noticed that there are some random areas where having an animal companion will cause ...

Mr. Sir,
Please correct me if I'm getting this wrong, but it appears to me that it's completely OK to bash on the desingers of this game, but it's not OK to point out when some one is refusing to take the steps needed to solve their issues with the game.

If the sole purpose of this post was to ...

My computer is reaching dinosaur status, and Norton has done a pretty good job of protecting it for the last 4 years. I've installed the game patches, and haven't had any of the problems that you are describing. If you're one of those people who just likes to complain about things than carry on ...

The way you described it should be correct. A while back though I tested it and came up with a different conclusion. At the very beginning of MoB you can pick up a devise that gives you 100% cold immunity, and 50% Fire weakness. I equipped my RDD with the device, and then dropped a bunch of ...

I was thinking of running a party with only a low (caster) level RDD FS SF. Casting as a FS 8. As my only divine caster. What is your experience playing this party with not much of a divine caster? I am thinking it won't matter so much because you can just buy healing packs and cancel out status ...

That's seems a little harsh.. he did preface his concerns. ;) (..also not that a lot of players don't micro-manage their characters - in fact I suspect that those who do (myself included), are in the minority.) ;)
Good point... sorry Fiberfar... I have a tendancy to be closed minded at times.

In ...

The character, the kaze, that you've chosen to navigate the overland map with doesn't have survival as a class skill, does it?

Therefore I suggested a ranger. You'd get hide, move silently, listen, spot, search, survival and other skills you very much can use on the overland map.

You're right ...

Fiberfar... I realize it was a long post, but did you even read it? The only valid comment I see is in regards to micromanaging the wizards, and YES of course that's how you do it. The only thing I let the computer do for me automatically is attack nearest, and occasionally I set every one on puppet ...

I don't ever remember having a problem with the bar Pirates. It might have had something to do with creating too powerful of a character. Dwarf - Bard(4)/Paladin(6)/RDD(10)/DD(10). Once I cleared out the Ice Troll Lodge and grabbed all their stuff my AC was so high that I was untouchable. Between ...

SoZ is not a very complex campaign, and could easily be completed with a bunch of tanks and 1 or 2 magic users. However, if you are a power gamer like me, you will want to come up with the best party for every situation. The game starts with 4 slots available for your base group, and 1 slot ...

Thanks for the input. It would really be nice if obsidian would include some useful information in their game manuals like the mathmatical equations. Wtihout it, I find myself using the trial and error method in order to figure out the best combinations.

Here's another thing to add to "the things ...

NWN2 does not give you access to enough of your charicters stats. One of them being speed. The average Human is supposed to be able to go 30 ft. I'm assuming that's 30 ft per round, but I haven't been able to find any documentation on this. A Grey Orc moves at 40 ft. From what I can tell, a Monk ...

Dodge and Mobility are worthless feets unless you need them to get a prestige class. All you need to do is pump your tumble up to 15, and you are completely immune to attacts of opportunity. The one thing that irritates me about tumble is that it doesn't appear to give you a bonus to AC. Even with ...

Glad to help kahelag,

In NWN2 you are allowed up to 4 classes. This includes any combination of base classes and prestige classes. Each time you level up you are allowed to level up in any class... so long as you meet the criteria be it allignment, race, or neccessary feats/skills (most of which is ...

Bard 4, Paladin 6, RDD 10, DD 10. Final attributes: STR 28, Dex 14, Con 22(+1 from epic feat), Wis 10, Int 12, Cha 14. High BAB, High AC, High Hitpoints, High Saves, Tons of Immunities, DR 15/- (thanks to epic feats), decent skills, and a few useful spells. Deadly for spell hurlers and tanks alike ...

kahelag,

If you're wanting to maximize your sourcery and still be able to hit something as an archer, than you need to be an Eldritch Knight. Go with Sorcerer level 10, Eldritch Knight level 10, and Archane Archer level 10. By level 30 you'll be able to cast as a level 19 sorcerer (level 9 spells ...

I could be wrong on this, but I'm pretty sure that monks loose both their dex and wisdom modifiers if they are cought flat footed, so I wouldn't spend any extra points on wisdom after you've set your initial stats.

If you're going head to head with a high DR monster, than strength is better ...
