Help with Shadowkeeper

Post by Doc »

Okay, I've been able to play around with Shadowkeeper and changed a few attributes of my main ch. Nothing drastic, he's not COMPLETELY immune to EVERYTHING. Yet. But what I really want to do is change my hit points. I do it in SK but it doesn't show up in the saved game (though other changes do). Do I need to change the base hit points first? What am I missing?

The Base Hit Point category determines how much HP your character has up to LV 9 if your a fighter or a priest and LV 10 if your a mage or a rogue. This does not factor in HP bonuses per level due to high constitution (15 and up). My suggestion for editing hit points with Shadowkeeper is to make sure your character is at his maximum health when you start editing, and make sure any items that give hit point bonuses are removed. If your Base Hit Points and Current Hit Points are even, then your in business. Heres an example of how the Base Hit Points work. Just say your a LV 15 fighter with a constitution of 17 and you want to have 300 HP in total. The Base Hit Points should be set to 255. After LV 9 the game will automatically add 3 HP/LV for a fighter. At LV 15 this will total 18. Since your constituion is 17 then you'll also get a further 27 HP calculated from your constitution bonus for the first 9 levels (3 HP/LV.) automatically as well. With that in mind, simply set both the Base Hit Points and Current Hit Points to exactly the same number depending on what you want. There may be more to it, but that's how I understand it. anyway.
