Certain chapters stop the clock on timed events. Running off to SpellHold is one of them

Raidri,

If like domi points out, Jahiera's next sweeze would be a male in your party right now. Makes you thing if Jan's turnip stories are really about turips!

What about Jan? surprised its taken this long for his name to be dropped.

Lets face it, your just killing space until you get Imoen back, so Jan's limitations wont be as great a liablity for you.

Advantages of Jan. Part Spell Caster (adds a few party xps for learning some duplicate scrolls you ...

what a light wieght!

all anyone would need is some lower resistance spells and a couple wands of cloud kill.... one dead demon prince.

there is a backpack icon on the bottom of your screen. click on it to use any abilities that come from equipment you are wearing

Try the game with a class you hate on paper. Maybe by trying to work around the weaknesses, you can learn to appreciate the strengths

What is important about Minsc is his personality.

Very few of the NPCs make sense to me...
Why does Yoshi have 0 points in the one skill that sets him apart (set traps)?
Why did Nalia dual before she excelled at any one skill (parental pressure?)?

There are others but you get the point. The game ...

Jan as a Swashbuckler!??? No way, Bard all the way. Part Salesman, Part Story Teller, Part Gadget Maker.

The scroll bit is primarily for dual Wizards. As a cleric your god gives you your spells, and those green scrolls are memorizable like the mage scrolls.

Of course it can still help a lot to dismiss all but your wizard, then start reading scrolls. A heavy trap area (after you've cleared the other ...

This is just conjecture based on my game xp...

a Hide in Shaddows roll will be needed to first disappear into the shadows. Furthur checks are made from the average of HiS + MS.

Now where Move Silently is important is when sneaking up to enemies. Sometimes you will notice that the enemies shift ...

Well there is the all purpose Dispell and I've recently read in a Funniest Moments post where players just ran away from the approaching swarm.

its not so difficult...

load your last save, click on the second tab "Characteristics". Beside "Kit" you have a drop down menu, look through there until you see "Beserker". Then save.

GR: He is starting out a ranger and already has 2 pips in 2 Weap Style

My advice would be *** 2 Weap Style, ** War Hammers, ** Mace, ** Quaterstaff while a Ranger

Then when you dual * Fail, * Sling since the FoA is the best cleric weapon for the early part of the game during the long haul to 10th ...

It is funny you would bring that up... playing a mage, i've always stayed away from the contact spells like shocking grasp. in bg1 i tried making a decent h(f/m) that only used touch spells, but never really got into the charater.

while reading that post, i started day dreaming of the posiblities ...

I'm always amused be these types of discussions most because it is totaly pointless.

compairing fighters and monks is like compairing strawberries and kwi. yes, they have similar tastes, but they are completely different in many other ways.

maybe some of you haven't noticed, but you can bring ...

Sorry you cant dual once you have choosen the Monk class.

@Duran

Getting past the thief debate for a sec, I would leave your 6th slot open. Many of the NPCs have sub quests that might me useful for you to go through for magical items, cash, and experience. Once these are done, you can let them go, or keep them.

Since you and Minsc can trade frontline and ...

Aerie - Worthless imho. Can't use her clerical advantages (armor) and in most battles I have to decide if I want to throw an "aid party" spell or "harm enemy" spell. Too many eggs in one basket. Then there is her constant whining. I usually pick her up for the bickering with Jaheira and the extra ...

If your going from swahbuckler to anything else, dual at 10th level. Every five levels your AC and THAC0 improve, so stick it out for the extra 71k XPs.

Strider,

Your site has come a long way since DC, I might have to drop by from time to time to keep you in line *grin*

cheers
