Wow this is great!

I'm interested in trying out the lich kit, since I'm totally drawn into magic as I have always been.

@Sir Percy: Hey, maybe YOU're the one who should give up computer games for a while. What kind of attitude is that?!

Leanna, you're confusing Aerie with Jaheira. The Harper's Quest and the locket are tied to the Jaheira romance. I played both paladin and druid and had no problems romancing Aerie.

Thanx Drakron. I thought it was a typo for "gas", and I wanted to use the dialog.tlk Editor to correct it, heh.

Funny...Drakron's posted the answer before my question; it's above my post!

What's the meaning of Geas?

Oh, I thought I had asked a REALLY stupid question and it scared all the answers away

Prolly it's nothing. I don't see anything written in the Walkthrough about the spelljammer.

For druids I would prefer the totemic druid over the others. The spirit animals can level drain, and I just love the level drain ability--when it's applied on others and not me of course. http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/smile.gif

For bards I would prefer any kit except blade. To me the blade is ...

I agree with Drakron about his opinion in leveling up.

Character leveling should be something like this: I disfavor the XP cap, but as you level up, it gradually becomes slower and slower to reach another level. Think Elminster, one of the greatest wizards of the Realms he reached that status ...

Lol, some of this stuff really goes fictional if you come to think of it. How does a 20th lvl monk get immunity to normal weapons?!?

Enemy: "Hey! I just stabbed you five times, yer supposed to be dead!!"
Monk: "huh? you were attacking me?" http://www.gamebanshee.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

I don't like the fact that the game makes the dragons too easy to kill.

The problem is that BG2 is TOO HIGH-LEVEL in everything. I understand it's a computer game and fun is everything, but still. In my D&D adventures, getting a +3 whatever is already incredible!

Too many high-level items and ...

Almost no one anticipatesd vampires in the Asylum the first time they play, and so noone brings stakes.

Thumbs up for the design team for providing an extra stake! It's really nice they paid attention to potential situations like this.

You looked at Firkraags stats?? How do you do this?

On second thought, I think I'll be multi-class MERCHANT-FIGHTER, and since I just love to hoard items, I'll try and sell them pretty cheap in the beginning so as to steal customers from Ribald, Deidre and Joluv.
Imagine all the benefits:
-As a merchant I'll buy my own land and build a tavern ...

Garcia: you forgot, vic lives as long as you too.
(BTW, isn't a normal elf lifespan 700 years? what do you have, potions of longevity?!?!?

First time I played, my PC was sorceror, and during the final encounter with Irenicus, I turned into Slayer thinking it would be cool to watch two Slayers duking it out.

Bad idea it was; even tho we were dealing the same damage, my PC only had 70 hp and I had to back down and retreat. http://www ...

There is a drow spelljammer northeast in Ust'Natha, and if you strike conversation with him the first time, he tells you that if you're still around for a month there he may take for a "ride" to another plane.

Does he mean it or it's simply nothing? Any of you tried staying loong enough to verify ...

Did you start pickpocketing someone? Or steal from the storekeep?
Either way if you screw up in your stealing the whole room turns hostile on you. The only solution for this is to reload.

You should make more magical bastard swords, scimitars, throwing daggers and darts.

IMO, bastard swords and proficiency are the least popular in the game because they're very few of them, and they all suck. Make some good magical ones and maybe this'll encourage their use.

Make thinking caps or ...

Oh, I didn't know casting failure involved the saving throws too. I'll keep that in mind. I thought maybe it was because I had low constitution or strength.

Thanx Drakron.

How is it that certain wizards and monsters in the game, particularly high level ones, are able to suffer a lot of damage while they're casting spells and they're not disrupted?

Liches are very good at this. While Minsc is hitting (and dealing damage), I see "one of the spells has failed" but it ...
