Another question about soloing

Post by Morril »

I want to solo as a mage. And therefore I would like to have "ring of wizardry".
Do I need to have Jaheira in my party to make "harper quest" or can I go inside harper guild and kill the person who has "ring of wizardry"??
I am asking because I want soloing AND have the ring :)

Yes that's what I mean.
So I can only get the ring if I have Jaheria in my party??

no. you can have your apprenti make the ring of wizardry for you in the mage stronghold.

IIRC, if you complete jaheira's quests you get 2 rings of wizardry anyway

Yes but it will kill him, and I will loose exp points?

You can get two rings of wizardry if you are a mage or sorceror, one if you do Jaheira's Harper Quests (only possible if shes in your party) and one is made by your apprentices in the planar sphere.

1. Can I use the two rings at the same time and have +2 for 5th, 6th, and 7th level mage spell??
2. If I had my apprenti make a ring of wizardry for me, then he will die and I will not get the 50.000 exp points - right?

Yes, I'm pretty sure the bonuses do stack

[QUOTE=Morril]2. If I had my apprenti make a ring of wizardry for me, then he will die and I will not get the 50.000 exp points - right?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, if you ask them to do the Ring, 2 of them will die, and you won't get exp.

If you really want the ring (considering you will have other good rings to wear since you're solo), you can do it from the sphere anyway, the 50 000 XP won't mean much anyway because you're soloing.

i'm convinced the first time i went through the game, my cheesy kensai->mage AND Imoen had rings of wizardry, and i had taken the fighter stronghold.

and before anyone suggests it, my kensai->mage was also wearing the ring of acuity
