Some useful informations, secrets, discoveries SoZ [SPOILER!]
Well, I'm going to share my discoveries here and please do the same!
Here's my way to get maximum bonuses from our friend One of Many:
First of all I didn't attack him, instead I brought all cohorts I was able to find. Evil characters have dialogue option which allow U to feed One of Many. By doing this U get XP (amount depends on killed cohort Character Level), I get min 1000 and max 2500 and after few cohorts the evil character which feeds OoM gets Lesser Negative Aura. After 6 cohorts it's upgraded to Negative aura and finally after killing all cohorts my evil character received Greater Negative Aura which in my opinion is pretty nice. But that's not end! After completing this task there is a dialogue option which allows U to fight One of Many! I crushed him from the distance using my Wizard and Ranger while my other two characters were "entertaining" him. Killed One of Many dropped The Imarskarcana - the best head gear I found in the game. So it's really worth to keep One of Many alive and to kill him after getting the Greater Negative Aura. Of course if U don't mind playing without cohorts.
Yes, it's possible and U can add up to 3 enchantments just like to any weapon. And it's cumulative with Crossbow/Bow bonuses! So in the end archery really rocks! Example of arrows with added bonuses, I use those to kill constructs. Golem's Bane Arrows
Ruined Keep is located at NE of the Sword Coast. It's this place with 4 gargoyles. There is a hidden chest behind the bookshelf. Simply bash the bookshelf and U will see the hidden chest It has epic trap on it and it's also nicely locked. The trap will remain there even when triggered, basically it MUST b disabled. And the lock can't b opened by spell, Open Lock skill must b used. After taking the loot those 4 nice gargoyles will kindly... attack U
Don't worry, they r nothing special.
Go to Black Market. U can pickpocket Zhiir for 2 Bags of Holding (-100% weight), which permanently resolve carrying problems of characters with low STR
Enter the boars pen in Nimbre and search it for hidden Periapth of Wisdom +2.
||[XP FARM]||
Personally I don't use this kind of bug, since for me RPG is all about building Your character, searching for new side quests to get some extra xp and enjoying every new gained level. Jumping few levels in few min. destroys all pleasure of playing. Anyway, that's what I think...
Luckily this bug/farm is at the same end of the game in the Temple of the World Serpent. Go to the Scrying Orb and use Concentration skill to seek N'Safa location. Then simply leave the Scrying Orb and repeat this action. Every time U will get XP for doing this...
I hope they will fix this bug in next patch...
