Too Many Kobolds

Post by Abecedarian »

Is there any way to stop the ridiculous eternal respawning of kobold commandos in the passages below Gullykin?

Place party members at the respawn places will stop the respawning. Other then this I know of no other way.

Thank you--I will try to identify the respawn points while trying to find Minsc's and Khalid's equipment. They were killed and darned if I can find where their stuff is.

AFAIR respawning doesn't stop when you finish this quests : I remember my party escaping from this maze on haste spell with army of these small monsters behind it (though I like battles with them :D ).
So sayeh

The best way to complete this area if you hate Kobolds as much as I do, is to enter the maze through the village itself so that you can defeat the Ogre mage and co. straight away. Now, if you want the ancient armor for exp or (God forbid) the Vampiric Sword, simply send in ONE party member to retrieve it (Remember that they have to be able to defeat the skeleton single-handedly) by using stealth or an invisibility spell/potion to bypass all of the annoying Kobolds. Like I said though, only do this if you want to get the ancient armor otherwise just kill the Oge-mage and co. ASAP and get the Hell outta there!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

Nature’s first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.

For me, this was a great area to pick up free fire arrows. After killing off the first batch of Kobolds and Kobold Commandos, the game seemed to only spawn a couple at a time.
There's nothing a little poison couldn't cure...

What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, ... to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if he people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security.

I am planning to return to that dungeon with migh level 8 fighter wearing full plate, ring+2, cloak and helm of Balduran, large shield +1 +4 against missles, girdle of piercing and a ring of fire resistance. I might even drink a potion of speed to make the fight faster. I think that should make me miss only on critical misses and the cobolds will hit me only on their criticals, which is ok :-)
