Thanks again. Awesome guide you have. Most of your spell picks line up with mine but I went with Simulacrum instead of project image, and most of the scrolls in the game have been burned on my backup mage for XP :P . Is PJ better than Simulacrum then? I have to admit it hasn't been used very much ...

Strange lootable table in one of the underdark dungeons (spoilers)

In the Illithid dungeon, there is a lootable table that apparently has two different areas highlighted by tab. The table itself lights up, along with a triangular shape near the end of the table. I can loot the main part but getting to the other loot point seems impossible.

Does anyone here know ...

AFAIK, helmets don't add any penalties to thief skills, nor does daylight/nighttime have any effect that I'm aware of. 100 points in hide and move silently should make your attempts succeed 100% of the time as long as there are no enemies around. I've never had any problems with it at that skill ...

I GOT HIM.

Thank you so much, man. I never knew those magic protection potions were so useful and had completely forgotten about the automatic saving throws.

Ended up using the protections and prebuffs you suggested combined with constant use of the ring of the ram, ring of energy, and necklace ...

Yep. I ran through SCS1 in the first game and imported to SCSII as a matter of fact.

I'll check out the stickies. I thought about spell immunity but when I PoM the character closest to him, he just aims for someone else. I only have 2 arcane casters and 2 PoM scrolls; using a simulacrum from ...

Any suggestions for Improved Kangaxx? (Tactics+other mods)

Improved Kangaxx is giving me a huge amount of trouble, particularly once he turns demi-lich. Protection from magic renders the first fight but harmless, but once he's a demi-lich he doesn't seem to be affected by it at all. I've never survived more than 10 seconds against him; he always time stops ...
