great, thanks kmonster

Hi folks,

I want my paladin to be able to cast level 2 spells, which I believe requires a wisdom score of 12. Do I need the actual wisdom stat to be 12, or could I have just 11 basic wisdom, plus a +1 wisdom ring/arti to make it up to 12 wisdom, and be able to cast level 2 spells?

Likewise, a few ...

oh dear, I resumed playing, I freed the prisoners and chatted to Nheero but he doesnt help me move forward. I read some walkthroughs now, and apparantly Im supposed to find Mandals ghost and retrieve his sword, but his ghost is nowhere to be seen and Neehro wont even give me the mission to find ...

okay I had a closer look in the torture chamber as you said and found the wheel that can be turned! I didnt notice that before, thanks folks, now I can move on

I am stuck now in the Dragons Eye caves, I dont know how to progress, I found some threads on this but they didnt quite help me, here are some of the riddles I cant solve;

First level; some prisoners trapped in a little room near the toture chamber, I cant open the door.

Second level:
-There are ...

Interesting. I would imagine that the extra xp on hard level will let your characters grow stronger and so ulitmately it may not be much more difficult than normal level despite the tougher enemies!

Having competed the game a couple of times on normal I will defeinately give 'hard' a go next time ...

Its been a long while, but I think there might be a remorrahz or two in HoW when you go to see the seer on the mountian top, in the etnrance of that cave where you meet the blind dwarf smithy ?

hi, haivng played IWD a lot, Ive just started playing the BG series, can someone tell me if charisma has any affect on shop prices (as in IWD1+2) or saving throws (like in IWD2)? and also is that answer the same for the tutu version? thanks!

ah and Ive been neglecting the feats for fortitude saves all this time! thanks for all those pointers.

I got beat in the Illithid halls as my people kept getting stunned somehow. I tried casting circle of evil protection and freedom of movment, but these didtn seem to protect me against being stunned! I think dispel magic worked to undo it a couple of times, but then my mage and cleric got caught so ...

thanks for the reply, after original post I ended up going with a weird rogue/fighter/barbarian all-in-one combo. Barbarian speed has its uses but it bugs me when the barbarian bumps into the slower characters, or speeds too far ahead of them, plus the reasons you stated, so Illl give the barb class ...

As this thread is still linked in the sticky thread, I jsut wanted to add soemthing that I dont think was mentioned... there is another...option..of course this is a SPOILER

if You are finding teh chambers too difficult, or you are not paricularly enjoying the chamber game (like I wasnt), simply ...

Glad you bought the game mate, hope you have fun, but did you also get IWD1? if not I strongly recommend it, in some respects it is better than the second game, I find the levels and story of the first game are well designed, including a few superb levels. It also has a deliberatly gentle learnign ...

f you wanted to get through the game with a smaller party, youd have to make sure you still have a few good melee fighters, also very wise to have atleast 1 good archer. Other areas to cover are thievery, knowledge arcana and healing.

Although wizardry is powerful I reckon you coudl actually get ...

What about combining rogues with other classes? I was thinking of adding a few fighter levels to my rogue to beef him up, or maybe ranger but are rangers any good really? I mean whats with that animal tracking business, worth it? or better to go fighter and get more feats... or what about barbarian ...

lol yea I also fought him loads of times before I got that bit.

hmm doesnt pick pocketing totally ruin your reputation and make people attack you and stuff?

---if you havent completed the game just dont read this topic---

What are your favorite levels in the game? or maybe specific moments/battles that are memorable to you?

I have to mention a few areas as there are so many good bits, on the whole I slightly prefer the frist half of the game ...

spoiler; okay thanks, I didnt realise that was where I picked up the amulet, and I will give up on trying to defrost them fully then

My favored party is as follows; Basically 3 melee fighters leading the charge, then three weaker units mage/cleric/thief all with ranged weapons.

1: Female human fighter, with Flail, shield and sling. Flail does crushing damage which is the most versatile type, high charisma gives cheaper prices in ...
