9.3. BG2 bonus merchant

.

This is a mod that makes a bonus merchant in IWD2 selling equipment from BG2. If you've played BG2, you know how these bonus merchants work: vastly overpriced, moderately powerful items that you wouldn't get anywhere else.

This adds Ribald Barterman as a bonus merchant selling BG2 equipment. He appears in the Gallaway Trading Post and Conlan's Smithy in Kuldahar. All of the items have been faithfully converted to Third Edition / Icewind Dale 2 rules and statistics. For example, Katanas are now (Masterwork) Bastard Swords, etc. We also continue the tradition of offering items that you shouldn't really be able to use (like the Zerth Blade in BG2).

Special Note: "adamantine" does not dissolve in IWD2. For example, Stormcaller, Hammer of Lightning, Order's Nemesis, Life's Blood Drinker, Implaer, Rage of Chaos, Despana Insignia, and Despana Piwafwi are all made from it in vanilla IWD2 and none of them turn to dust.



Equalizer - quite overpowered damage output

Flail of Ages - by far not that good as it was in ToB

Gesen Short Bow - quite a good bow - but not better then some IWD2 bows

Jaheira's Harper Pin - overpowered and definetly not roleplaying

Jansen Adventurewear - if you find a use for it, overpowered and definetly not roleplaying

Flasher Master Bruiser Mate -

Hallowed Redeemer -

Firecam Full-Plate -

Mace of Disruption -

Shadow Dragon Armor -

Drow Elven Chain - similar to Draccas, you just get it early enough in the game

Tsuki no Ken - best off-hand weapon - very powerfull but not overpowered in relation to other IWD2 weapons - just extremly usefull

Corthala Family Blade -

Corthala Family Armor -

Sword of Arvoreen -


Some of these items are quite overpowered in normal mode - but in normal you also can't effort most of these items eitherway! In HOF some of these items seems still to be a little bit to powerfull. But as items are unbalanced and bad designed in IWD2, and there are many overpowered random items, I think it's acceptable to buy the one or the other if you have bad luck!

most important race boni:

- SR (spell resistance)
- extra stat points (needed for some powerfull MC builds)
- racial boni
- the right favored class for the planned build
