[QUOTE=Numinor]Even more weird is that druids can cast Nature's Beautie without breaking invisibility ;) [/QUOTE]


That would be the manifestation of inner beauty, normally left unseen :D

Since spells tend to be situational I was disinclined to offer an opinion. However, during my current replay, I feel compelled to propose Invisibility as the most useful of spells (and derivatives thereof). How would your thief be able to scout ahead unseen into enemy ranks for traps and not set ...

I appreciate the feedback and insight. I have not used Edwin before, so was concerned.

Again, thanks.

I don't think Edwin's working right....

I am early in the game and just tried to level Edwin up from 9 to 10th. He got Hp bonus etc but NO spell bonus. Anyone else had that happen? I'd rather not persist with him in the current saved version if he is naffed.

Actually I did buff Nalia last time with rings, gauntlets etc. Just wasn't satisfying since she didn't get any better at backstabbing, which proved a pain later in the game.

@Thrain
2 it is indeed

Edwin - IMO I need a decent Th that stays constant within the group, given what happens throught the game. Choices are limited (why exactly did they dual imoen to T/M anyway - that does not logically follow from BG1). Anyway, I don't like Jan and my PC is a gnome F/M to boot ...

You know, that had occurred to me but as a Maccie I have not been able to get Shadowkeeper to run in OSX. So have not been able to edit anything in BG2/ToB. (Actually, I had deleted old SoA saved games and lost my orginal PC and STUFF he had, tried to start ToB with a fresh version of the ...

One word: bummer.
Appreciate the feedback, it will save me lugging him around with the group early on and then discovering the hard way he can't be dualed to Thief.

Dual Class Edwin??

Decided to have another run through. While this info may exist, I was not able to search it up. So, .. I want a decent thief and don't want Jan. I want to dual Edwin to thief but I need a 17 in Dex to do this (he is a 10) I think? My Q, if I equip him with Gaunlets of Dex to artificially boost him ...

An unfortunate consequence of the color scheme is an inability to ignore black text...harder to scan without reading every post. Perhaps a sheet of orange cellophane would serve as a filter. Maybe wrinkle it for texture. :D

You serious?

Makes undead a) run away and not attack for a while or b) makes them explode rather dramatically so they don't bother you anymore. Option b) works at higher cleric levels.
