Bleeding Wounds & experience points

Hello there.

Something strange just happened. One of my characters wields a weapon that has a chance to cause Bleeding Wounds on its target. It just happened, the enemy *died* from Bleeding Wounds, and I noticed it didn't give any exp.
I suppose that Bleeding Wounds damage might be considered ...

The truth is that you're not supposed to kill people there. Torment rewards players with an open mind, who will always try to talk even if they end up having to kill.
I suppose they didn't bother removing the quest if you kill the NPC, since it's not supposed to happen.

There is a legit way to get "Heaven and Earth" without relying on UnderSigil's drop rates.
A story-related, and really epic one. Don't miss this by using a nasty editor.

It depends on your criterias.
Vhailor and Ignus have the least interactions in the game.

The best weapon in the game is a mace, seconded by Celestial Fury, which can take any shape you want.

It is the most difficult alignment to get, but still far from impossible.

Make vows, keep your promises, be respectful. I suggest going the Lawful Good way (that is, by completing most of the quests) since Law "points" are harder to get. But at the same time, ask for a reward whenever you can, be ...

There can be no "best" composition, unless you can define your criterias for a "good" party.

In my opinion, arcane magic is too big a thing not to have a pure mage in a party. But that's only my opinion.

It's up to you... (I find Nordom much more pleasant than Ignus.)

Ignus and Vhailor are the characters with the fewest interactions in the game, it makes sense to leave them behind on your first playthrough, unless you had an specific idea in mind when making your party (e.g. Lawful or Chaotic ...

If you want to bring down Improved Invisibility, Dispel/Remove Magic should do the trick.
But unless he has PfMW or Mantle, you could simply use physical damage.

Definitely the Baldur's Gate series. I tend to think that Baldur's Gate 2 is the best CRPG in terms of combat system, while Torment is the best in terms of storyline. I am quite surprised you liked Torment's combat. It is awkward and poor compared to BG2.

Fallout 1 & 2 might be considered as ...

In what order did you apply your patches and mods?
Did you convert your save after you did?

As for the combat system:
Torment is *supposed* to follow D&D 2nd ed. rules. It's not really complicated, but it does feel strange the first time.
THAC0 is accuracy. AC is the capacity to avoid (not ...

I suppose you meant 'less than min damage'?

I don't really know why, but I must warn you that Torment in general isn't very respectful of D&D rules.
Is your installation patched and modded? Modders like Qwinn worked a lot towards making Torment more... logical.

Yes, all stats are capped at 25.
The highest checks I found in the game are : 24+ CHR, 24+ WIS, 21+ INT.
Keep in mind that some dialogue options can be "unlocked" either with high INT or high WIS.

As for the save: is there an error message?
