Question

Post by Mini Me »

Question (as in the title):

What items do you get for siding with the shadow thieves and for siding with Bodhi. (trying to make a decision, but dont throw all the 'choose Bodhi then you kill thieves and vampires!' stuff at me, k?)

Aran Linvail with the Thieves will give you three magical items, like a Ring of Protection +2 and some other things. Bodhi, however, will ask you to kill Aran in which case you can loot his body for all those items AND an Amulet of Power which is great against Vampires (Not great considering you're on thier side...).

Personally, I'd say just go with the Thieves and pickpocket Aran with a good Thief like Jan or a main charactor, but you didn't hear that from me....

Aran gives you the amulet of power when you side with him. Right after you pay him off as I recall.

at least keldorn and mazzy i think. certainly not minsc, dunno about the other goodie goodie chars.
also, there is one quest where u can choose between 2, an evil and a more neutral way. i chose the 'neutral', maybe more would leave with the other.
u get the same important stuff both ways, maybe a little more XP for all the vamps, and a little more gold for the thieves.
u miss out the djinni ring and some other drops with the thieves, as vamps dont drop stuff, but thieves do.
in the end u will have MoD and amulet of power both ways, but with bodhi u get MoD first, with Aran more towards the end. Same with amulet the other way round.
Truth suffers from too much analysis
