Post by slowcar »

how do i get rid of it?
i dont have a cleric at hand nor do i have scrolls with restoration.
just startes HoU, do i have to get back to recieve some healing or do i meet some people capable of this?

just in case i find a cleric henchman, how do i say him that he should cast restoration?

Level drain can be removed by Restoration and Greater Restoration.

The cleric in the tavern were you began can also remove level drain (I think), so use your Relic of the Reaper, and port back and forth.

The cleric henchmens can cast spells if you talk to them and takes some dialog options. (can't remember them)

hmm, i dont think i really want to spend a rogue stone every time i get drained. maybe i shop some scrolls of restorations then, or perhaps i find some equipment again (like greater amulet of health).
or i have to edit my char and put ranks into disable device, i will see how annoying these traps are going to be.

i've never really ever needed to 'teleport' with the Relic.. except upon the unfortunate event that I died.

However, with respect to level drain, you have a few options:
1: buy scrolls of Restoration and/or Greater restoration, or simply stockpile them.

2. Employ a cleric healer, friend, or shuffle back to town.

3. Wear an amulet of health (Greater Amulet preferred). I usually wear this instead of Natural Armor amulets.. the regeneration is nice, and it protects against nearly all level and ability drain, poison, disease, and other annoying and hard to remove afflictions. For people who know about Enserric's abilities (mechanics spoiler): Greater Amulets of Health will shield you from Enserric's constitution drain, enabling you to boost its enhancement bonus with no side effects

or.. if you're in the single campaigns, you can find a nice spot to rest and it will wear off by itself. - munchkinism rules! -

doesnt work.
level drain is permanent, at least according to the DnD-rules. NWN handles it a bit different (save if it applies at all, in DnD its save if it gets permanent iirc)

resting the whole year wont help at all.

eh?? level drain comes from a vareity of sources. those from certain creatures like higher level undead may not wear off.. the priest of tyr can help. but those from spells like enervation will wear off.. i seem to recall something of both instances.....
