Quick question: Can an evil CHARNAME change Viconia to True Neutral or Sarevok to Chaotic Good?

Thanks!

On the same note: what party do you think has the best dialogue interactions in ToB? Should I stick with the canonical Imoen, Minsc, Jaheira plus Sarevok? Who should I add to the party, banter-wise? Any NPC has specific, memorable, conversations with our big brother?

Thanks Lemmus. I know how to take a screenshot on a mac, just not on a mac running windows

Apparently it's: shift+fn+f11, or shift+alt+fn+f11…

I don't have a PRTSC key on my keyboard. I'm on a Mac running windows in bootcamp. What's "gp intro the SenShot"?

I'm now trying to roll a Berserker, and it's incredibly hard getting even a 90! I think I'm spoiled with high-rolls, now…

Hello there!

This is a follow up of [url='http://www.gamebanshee.com/forums/threads/the-strongest-warrior.126541/']this thread[/url] but I'm writing in here due to spoilers for ToB, particularly of a particular NPC.

So, I created a Berserker for BG1 and, while it's very, very strong, I'm ...

Oh sorry, I meant romances continuing from SoA. Of these which do you think are better written in ToB? For instance: I remember vaguely reading that Jaheira's romance isn't that special in ToB, even though it's probably the deepest and best written in SoA…

Without any spoilers, what do you think is the best romance in ToB?

Thanks!

…that is all. :D

I was watching Masterchef while rolling a Bard and up came the following roll:

STR: 17
DEX: 18
CON: 18
INT: 18
WIS: 15
CHA: 18

I would've taken a screenshot for posterity but I have no idea how to do that on Windows. Anyone know the odds of such a roll happening?

Anyway ...

I usually put two profs into two-weapon fighting. My Berserker is using axes, yep I exploit the throwing axe glitch!

Just two? Why not 3?

It can get a bit monotonous playing a straight fighter, well almost straight being a berserker, but the other characters reduce that problem. Playing solo ...

PS When you do meet Sarevok in the start of ToB then you should be a far superior fighter to him , cheesebringer or no cheesebringer. You after all should have HLAs which he doesn't have at that point.

True, but he will have them as well, eventually.
On thing CHARNAME will have over Sarevok is ...

Thank you for the answers!

I know this question has been debated to death but bare with me:

Consider a character with 19 STR and 19 Con: would he benefit most from the Berserker's or the Barbarian's Rage? Looking at the tables, the barbarian rage would give him 23 STR, which means +2 To Hit, +4 ...

Just to clarify: I understand that, probably, the strongest mêlée character is a Kensai>Mage, with a Kensai>Thief with UAI right behind it, but I'd rather not dual the Kensai… it seems antithetical to the spirit of the class. I don't mind multiclasses though, although I would much prefer a "pure ...

I'm playing this game since 2001 and never knew that. What a great piece of trivia! Do you have more info on that?

It's that time of the year where Baldur's Gate yearns to be played and, likewise, comes the indecision: what class to play? Should it be a dexterous assassin? A pious priest with a twist (make him an half-orc!). A sharpshooting archer?

Well… at least for the time being I'm considering something I ...

By the way, do you guys know if dual-class characters can use items restricted to their previous class? For example, can Imoen wear the thieves' hood or Anomen the Helm of the Rock?

And keeping on the subject of Thor, what about the Warriors Three? (we're entering deep nerd territory, now :) )

Fandral can be a swashbuckler or maybe a blade. Just has to be really good with a sword and with very high charisma.

Hogun could be a kensai with grand-mastery with maces.

Volstagg ...

I gotta say, although I usually don't like custom-made parties (the NPC interaction is half the fun), this is a neat idea!

For Iron Man, instead of going fighter with full plate, I could go the other way: Tony Stark is an inventor, a brilliant man that, thanks to his intellect, was able to become ...

Yeah, I'm leaning towards Berserker > Cleric and replace the Call Lightning with Bolt of Glory :D Seems to fit.

Almost want to make the whole Avengers, now. Captain America is obviously a paladin, the Hulk an half-ogre barbarian, we have a perfect Hawkeye with the Archer, black widow a thief ...

…what do you think is the best way to go about it? :)

Should I make a straight cleric? A multiclass fighter/cleric? A berserker dual to cleric (makes some sense to keep it in the "nordic" theme) or a ranger dual to cleric so I get call lighting?

I'll go single weapon style, with proficiencies ...

Wow, It never crossed my mind to use UAI to bypass the Clerics restrictions! That's definitely interesting!
