Personally, I like the Jester. Don't get me wrong the Blade is fun and has the potential to be very powerful, I just like the Jester for one reason.

Well, let's see here. Joluv and Deidre are bonus merchants which were found in the Collector's Edition(?) and the Pre-Order edition of BG2. Deidre sells a bunch of rare magical items while Joluv sells items found in Icewind Dale.

But it seems that if someone downloads the official patch they get ...

Joluv and Deidre items allowed? You never said anything about these. Only reason I ask is because these come standard for some people's versions of the game.

[QUOTE=Nimiety]These are some of my favorites, in fact I typically don't waste any slots on summoning when I can do it for free, so to speak. To use your own words, I like to do my own fighting and don't like waiting on the sidelines. The summons are perfect for a distraction to get you in and ...

[QUOTE=Nimiety]...I personally prefer the Totemic Druid to the Avenger... the avenger's mage spells are added to the pool of spells you can stick in your available spell slots, whereas the totemic druid's summoning abilities are special abilities that are cast almost instantly, and leave the spell ...

The table is here .

Personally I would go with the Avenger. Much more diverse in my opinion as you can cast some very helpful mage spells. Last time I played a non avenger I noticed how much the druid lacks direct attack offensice spells. So I really realized how useful the avenger is compared to ...

DROW CITY
I love this city! I basicly marched through contantly hasting my skeletons and drawing attacks from the drow to myself instead of the skeletons. I was immune to all attacks the drow tried to make at me. Any of the drow wizards were easily dispatched due to my spell failure penalty. The ...

ILLITHID CITY
As soon as a took a step inside the place I was captured by the Illithids. The first arena battle was easy all I had to do was Death Spell. After I finished I rested and talked to the Githyanki. The battle with the Kuo-Toa was much the same as the first, and after they were dead I ...

UNDERDARK
First thing I did was went to the deep gnomes who sell all the fancy scrolls, to whom I sold all that crap I got in the Asylum that I couldn't use and bought some nice scrolls. Next I went to the to the Imprisonment Machine.

All the enemies I fought who came out of the Machine were ...

Now I'm not completely sure about this or anything, but have you checked every single box or crate or whatever on the second level? I can't remember if you need a key, but it might be worth checking.

Really? Are you sure? Look at a great and noble paladin. For some reason it seems that paladins are good, but only to a certain degree. Monsters have been attacking good people for a long time, so a prejudice against them is made. Most of the "good" characters I see in this game see monsters as just ...

I do this just about every time, no matter what alignment I am. It's just so fun to kill them all and have no allies. (unless I'm a monk in which case I have to side with the king)

A good character will see the Sahaugins as evil monster's that all deserve to die.

A Nuetral character will not ...

Got the images working (off imageshack). Not the best but I wasn't planning on using them at the time. Now I know that it works so expect better ones. I'll be updating pretty soon.

Neither do I. Neither do I... But I still do. I wonder if it had something to do with me losing my job?

Anyway I am thinking I should show some screenshots, but I do not know how to do this. I could use imageshack but they only allow 1024 kb and all the images are somewhere around 1400 kb.

Big one this time. (Spoilers)

First thing I did after Unseeing Eye was went to join Bodhi. As soon as the Crypt was open I went down and got myself the Mace of Disruption+1. I decided I might as well upgrade it right then.

No. Atleast not right now. No mods, no nothing. Except for Deidre, but I don't plan on using her items too much.

Tactics/Improved Battles are very fun, but right now I'm just experimenting on how effective the character is in a vanilla game. Don't get me wrong, I will be trying this character in ...
