i downloaded the bonus merchants thing from this site, and put them in my bg2 override directory. where are they? i think i found a bloke in the copper coronet, but thats it. are there any others, and if so, where are they?
Doesn't sound like you have them, Foul. Goto: [url="http://www.bgdungeon.com/bg2/downloads.htm"]http://www.bgdungeon.com/bg2/downloads.htm[/url]
And pick up the additional merchants.
Then darkness took me, and I strayed out of thought and time
Everybody says they have such wonderful magic items, but either I'm missing something or I have too many magic items already. The only items I bought from either of them (the only 2 useful items as far as my party was concerned) was the Robe of Vecna and the +5 sling that doesn't need bullets.
If you take a good long look at the items you'll see that they are all very useful for varoius classes. And a certain spear is a lot handier than it seems if one know the trick. :d
Apart from the two I bought, none of the items were any use to me, they were either less useful than things they would replace or the wrong sort of weapons (none of my characters specialised in them). I don't understand the obsession in this game with magical spears, if you have to have a 2 handed melee weapon, a 2H sword does much more damage than any spear ever will.
You don't need to buy them if you don't want them. I found a lot of use for all the items that can be bought, favouring Vhailors Helm above all things though. Guess it's just the way we play that makes some peoples junk other peoples treasures. And I would say that the game is a lot more fond of twohanded swords than spears, much to my druids dissapointment.
I've already been playing a while, and do not have Joluv in the Copper Coronet (I have the Collector's edition and thus Diedre is not a problem.) Can I add him into the CC after I have been there, and finished the slaver's quest?

Just to verify, I added Joluv into the Copper Coronet without incident....I even did it WHILE my party was IN the joint, and it was no problem (POOF, there he is....)

i don't know if it matters, but in my game when i added the merchants joluv appeared outside of the copper coronet, standing right outside the entrance, instead of inside. sounds like everyone else had him appear inside the building. (?)
