Upper dorns deep(possible spoilers)

Post by xraygord »

Every time I leave Upper Dorns Deep 1 through the cave entrance, or through the entrance to Upper dorns deep 2, every Mycanoid and Ettin enemy I dispatched has returned to life when I come back to Upper Dorns Deep 1. Is this normal? Not that they are difficult to overcome, but just curious.

I think it is. It also keeps happening to me. Strange since all other areas seem to have no respawning.

Upper Dorns is a prime spawning area. You shouldn't have every monster returning compared to your first time through the area, but you will generally get a half-dozen myconids and 2-3 ettins.

From what I can recall there where greater numbers involved. Don't know for sure if it where all the monsters, but I think so (could have been the route I took alot though). But that could have been the time up and down Kalduhar

There are in fact more than 2-3 ettins and 6 Myconoids. But still no problem. Just be grateful for the fast and free XP you get this way. :D

From what I recall, there are 2 to 3 ettins in the area with the giant statue and myconids basically everywhere. It's the only place in IWD that respawns, as far as I know.

I've always found enemies respawn there as well. If you feel inclined and want the some party XP, it's not a bad place to run through a few times.
