Hey all!

Trying my hand at a full out Archer solo and I've just hit level 18. Does anyone have advice on some high level abilities? Hardiness looks good, as does magic resistance, tracking is useless I think. Maybe shoot for greater whirlwind? Though I don't really use melee weapons at the moment ...

Ok what do we know. On the source code page we have

"Shadowy Figure- Raise Dead : Infinity Engine

For years, I clung to the memory of it. Then the memory of the memory.

And then... it returned. Better than it was before.

Pore over the tapestries and works of art hanging from our walls if you ...

Hey all!

So I'm running my first IWD2 Solo. Got a Drow Sorcerer, level 20. I'm having a load of trouble with the lost followers. Haven't had any difficulties up till now. Symbol: Hopelessness isn't working on them and neither is wail of the banshee. Im completely buffed and assisted by 7 bone ...

hmmm,

Dragon's eye level 1: 2 Chest is locked

Dragon's Eye level 2: 2 Chest is locked.


These chests do have a rope in them, and are unopenable. This is stupid... My character is maxed on strength (@ char creation) and should be able to crack this. My mage is level 20, I doubt I'll be getting the ...

Sorry for double post, in picture 1 the cluster of chests is in the southwestern room, in picture 2 the chest is marked number 6

Which chest exactly can't you open and why do you think there are several ropes in it ?

Theres a cluster of chests on level 1; one of them contains the first of 4 ropes needed to escape. Theres another chest(one) by that guy's corpse, that contains the second of 4 ropes. Its those 2 I cant get ...

Brief intro, soloing with a sorcerer. I can't budge the chests with the ropes. I managed to find 2 potions of master thievery, combined with the 2 I bought from oswald, they do stack but I still cant do it. I've also found a potion of storm giant strength which increases my already high strength by ...

Ok seriously, I love this game, but spending 9 hours casting 645 buffs every time I rest is becoming more than a thorn in my side...

I have come to realize that there is no sequencer or contingiency spell in this game. Is there any way to make pre-battle casting somewhat less annoying.

As an aside ...

I use a similar build from time to time. If this character is going to be your PC, you can forgo the wizard slayer levels altogether and make up for it with the tear of bhaal that gives 10% MR to the PC. There's also 5% MR to be had from the machine of Lum the mad and by wearing the ring that ...

Right, you were quoting. Sorry about that.

The biggest problem I had (apart from the MR being weirdly low) was not fighting enemies, but healing. Since I couldn't wear the ring of regeneration and suchlike, it was quite difficult, especially in places where no temples are available. I don't recall ...

Okay, first things first : Use Any Item does NOT allow you to backstab with Carsomyr. It only allows you to wield it in normal battle. Backstabbing is only possible with the weapons usable by vanilla thieves - otherwise you get "inappropriate weapon" message. This includes any 'special ...

Hello guys,

I am playing again BG2, and romancing with Jaheira.

I have had all love dialogues until (JAHEIR85): "This is a dangerous life we seem to lead, it does seem. I wonder if you always think it will be so"...
I've done the bandit quest and bought Jaheira the necklace, so everything seems ...

Hey all,

I've been wanting to create a Thief character for a while now. I've been pondering a few builds and one that was listed on this site caught my eye... Word for word, here it is:

" Race: Human

1st class: Wizard Slayer to level 15

2nd class: Thief to level 38



Ok here's how it works ...

@Kmonster & Quen: Thanks a bunch!


You've both answered my questions. I guess I have nothing more to look forward to on my mage Meh, i'll be satisfied with blowing everything up


Thanks again,
- Robby

I got it... lol. As stated ,my Pally and Mage are receiving them just fine

Hey all,

So im playing through with my Priest of Lathander. He's a "Drow Elf" (or at least looks like one). The dark old boy just hit level 21, I still haven't received the choice to choose a special ability. Im also running him with my Undead Hunter who is receiving the abilities just fine. Anyone ...

Wow!

This video is rediculous... Way to go Tad! Were these characters were level capped?

Awesome stuff!

They are spells, consider them even more powerful lvl9 spells your mage can learn because he has become good at useing the arcane.

Maybe there is a mod out that gives you them as Abilitys but Bioware added them as spells

Awesome thanks. There is a mod for that, but I'd rather keep it as it ...

Ok my main is approaching 9 Kensai/43 Mage, and I've chosen all of the special abilities that I could. Thing is, the spells are appearing in my spellbook as level 10 spells, but occupying level 9 slots... Is this correct or just something Interplay & Bioware never bothered to fix? Are they supposed ...

Yesss! I have found a way to counteract this. I just start ToB Importing my save game from when I'm ready to present the last tear of Bhaal.
This way I get the rest of the bonuses but not the one giving those unnecessary attribute points. Although not recieve the exp after Irenicus, but I digress ...
