Don't wanna get pedantic on yo asses but...

...it's deity, not diety. That sounds like Instaslim pills.
Doesn't matter at all if you don't have one, it's only if you can be bothered to read the back of the D&D player's handbook.
I've just started the game, straight from BG and so far it looks ...

Thanks for the suggestion Astafas, but I think I'll wait till I play it through again - it gives me something to look forward to, and I know that if I give myself a 'preview' and kill him, I won't wanna reload after seeing what he's carrying.
By the way, didn't I spot you in the Temple of the ...

Shucks!

Thanks for the info folks. Looks like I'll have to let him live ;)
His gear sounds great, but I'm playing the role rather than hacking and slashing everything I can get away with.

Live and let live, at least until my next incarnation...
Pity tho - the fight sounds like fun!

Drizztical ethics problem

I've just come out of the Underdark, straight into Ch. VI, and instead of heading back to town I thought I'd try to get to Trademeet (always crashed when I went there from Aklatha (sp?)). Anyway to cut a long story short, it loaded and I ran into Drizzt and his fellows.
I know that he's got quite a ...

BG Romancing

Man, you can't imagine how lucky u r to have a girlfriend who appreciates the finer points (or any points at all) of BG. Mine hates it, says she can't understand how I can sit in front of this box for hours on end listening to 'Run Boo! Run' and clicking on little red circles.

Video driver's up to date, and I have a patch that I downloaded about 6 months ago. This is just the all-purpose 'fixit' patch, I don't have any mods installed.
Maaaan, it's SO *@!$ frustrating!

Trademeet

Yeah, I have exactly the same problem with Trademeet - game crashes as area is loading. Now I'm on Chapter 5 and I've had to miss out all the Trademeet quests thanx of this error, which is a pity 'cos I know there are lots of goodies to be had.

I have the game entirely on my HD (ie. it ...

Man, I've NEVER made a successful backstab...I've only tried it with Imoen early in the game, and maybe with Nalia (who sucks as a thief), but I always stepped out of shadows just before, and it was treated as just a normal attack, and did, like, 1 damage or something.
So, Khazad, you aint the only ...

I know it's totally off-topic, and you're all gonna snigger and point, but how the $@#! do I get into the drom city from the Underdark. If it's though those doors in the Kukkie tunnels to the west of the village, how do I open them?

So those MF and beholder tunnels are part of a later quest, hmmmm? Does that mean I've messed things up by clearing those holes out before going to Ust Natha? I'm just on my way to the city now after hacking my way through the beholder tunnels - I had no idea they were part of a seperate quest.

I think the best fun is had with a combination of the two. Sure, there are many battles where your tank can just steam in there and wipe the floor with them, but it's so much more satisying (and varied) to let fly with a few well-chosen spells from the back ranks, even if they aren't really ...

Yup, there he was, tucked away down a little alley that I hadn't noticed.
I pulled him up and booted him back down again, my pally managing it pretty much on his own (with PFE, Imp. Haste and biiiiiiiiig muscles), although he was redded out up to the eyebrows when the gristle finally sprayed ...

Jaheira's best spell, IMHO, is the 5th lvl Insect Plague. Great for mages (they can't cast 'cos they're too busy swatting mosquitoes), and it spreads across multiple enemies, whatever they are. Got a room full of spellcasters? Swarm 'em and watch 'em run round like headless chickens. Fun too.

That's what I thought. He looked pretty tough, but in the end he was all mouth and no trousers.
I'll scout around tomorrow, and if I don't get anywhere I'll be straight back here.

Wow, thx Leonardo for that quick reply. Is it really the wrong tunnel? When I exit it, it reminds me that I need to kill the demogorgon before I use the scroll. It's the tunnel just to the SW of the little gnome village.
