Shadow Thiefs

:mad:

Just a little thing to all.

Someone on this forum are angry because, if your fight against a boss, so are they actually **** on your Special Abilities as a character. Though I am a Scorere, have I been in a party where we should kill someone big person in the Shadow thiefs HQ.
We were coming up, and there was a berserker or a barbarien on the party, I could'nt remember.
But, anyway, we met the boss (he is really a boss), a really nasty backstabbing thief boss.
The berserker or barbarien ar immune to backstab, but the thief was just ****ed that up. All on my party was slain.
Conclusion:

I think that the makers of BGII SoA, was making the game, so hard as possible. Even if you have a person on a team, who can no be hold or held, so can he if he mets a boss.

umm, sorry i didnt quite understand what u meant.
if someone is backstabbing u, try true sight (or oracle if just once). if someone is holding u, try free action.
oh, immune to backstab? u r not talking about stone/ironskin r u? how else?
Truth suffers from too much analysis

It sounds like he's talking about Arkanis Gath, the Shadow Thief who shows up to insta-kill you, if you do something to break the plot.
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.
