Character Creation.

Post by The fallen one »

When you first make a character. And lets say you choose to make a fighter. And since you starting off as level 7. The computer needs to roll those first 7 levels of HP does it take a max or is a luck of the roll?

I was looking in SK at my characters hp and the starting hp was 74. So I missed out on ten HP. Not a real big deal.

So my thing is in the game when you level up. You can get max HP/level. Which for my Barbarian would be 17/level with bonus. Do you think it would be cheating or just cheesy to max his HP out. With SK? :rolleyes:

If you have the Max HP per level option enabled, any characters you roll will start out with the maximum HP. ;)

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.

Whenever I'm rolling and rolling and rolling after levelling up in BG1 (no such option there as far as I know) I ask myself "Why the heck don't I use SK" (or GK in that case).

In fact there's no difference between re-rolling for a certain result and editing except that you've worked harder for it if you roll and SK feels like cheating. It's the same with rolling character stats, I always do it altough I know what I want to be the result (31-35 points in total to be precise).

31-35?? how long do u roll for that?

when i made my monk, after a LONG time i was lucky and got 30, my other chars r 28 or less cuz it just takes ages.

for the HP, if u put difficulty to normal (3rd) it should max out. maybe i shouldve tried, my wild mage now had 20HP first...

Where do find this option when making a character for the first time. I know it is in IWD. But I could not find it in SOA.

Put difficult option to "Normal" or less, and max HP will be enabled

Something like an average of 20-30 minutes, including the fact that I most times forget to store the first good roll. But I've worked as a professional software tester for years, so I'm used to provoke rare situations.
