Mazzy

What is the soonest you can go get her without too much danger?

***Minor Spoilers***


You can always just go get the shadow quests in the Umar Hills, take out the shadow jailor, get Mazzy and leave to finish the shadow alter etc at another time. She's not too far into the underground section so it shouldn't be too hard.

There's two rooms you have to go through to get to Mazzy. The first one can be a bit difficult if you're lowlevel. Here's a cheesy way to do it anyway: get a cleric in your party, cast invisibility on him/her, send the cleric in and keep turning undead.

You can grab Mazzy when she's Level 8, at the earliest (at least in my experience). This is a great level to nab her at, b/c you'll be able to choose her 9th level proficiency, and spend it on something **useful** (I prefer Halberds), instead of short sword, which the game will pick for you.

1/ How do you get the Umar Hills/Temple Ruins on your map?

2/ I am currently at the point where my main character is a lvl 9 kensai/ lvl 4 mage (yet to re-activate abilities)... With this exp it's probably far too late to get Mazzy before lvl 9 and choose the halberd proficiency slot?

3/ Totally unrelated, but should it be considered as normal that when I dual from kensai to mage, and my kensai abilities are not yet re-activated, my class is listed as fighter/mage instead of kensai/mage?

Thnx for all the help btw! ;)

1) Go to the Government district, a boy should aproach you, but if you have Minsc I think (or if you are a ranger) he will search for you.
2) Yes, you should get her at lvl 9 with 5* in sbows and 2* in s.swords; BTW her prof. point of the lev. up from 8 to 9 is spent on s.bows to get the 5th* so, specially if you have the G.Mastery patch, that is very well spent; in any case you would start to give her prof. points in other weapon starting from the 12th lev. up.
3) yes, actually you are a fighter/mage.

1/K; thnx

2/Ah well... I'll try and get her now, and then spend her lvl 12 prof. point on halberds. Someone here suggested it, and indeed, the idea of the halfling 'paladin' with the huge halberds is rather lkeable. How many more prof. points should I expect?

3/ Yes, but shouldn't it be listed as KENSAI/mage?

2) Consider also spears, there are some very nice one's available; as for the prof. points it depends on the amount of exp. each of your char. will be able to acquire: how big is your group? Do you have the exp. cap removed? Do you have ToB?

Party: 6 (5 now, 6 with Mazzy)
Exp. Cap Remover: No, but shouldn't be too hard to find somewhere, eh?
ToB: Still looking for it

Mazzy is a fighter, and so she'll gain a proficiency every 3 levels.

You can get it from the "Ease of use" mod at Weimer's site or at Baldurash's site.
you should find both links in the sticky post of this board
