Well, we have fought Artemis Enterai and Jarlaxle, but I would not say that it was a victory as we lost half of our party members. We lost both our mages and all their wands! :( We were able to pick up Regis afterwards though. We returned the baby to the bear tribe. Having done that, it used...

Changes in the Drizzt Saga force you to drop party members in favour of Drizzt's friends. I don't like that. If I do this mod again, I will do it solo at the end of BG1. The changes to the mod are definitely NOT an improvement. :(

Carrying on my Ffion the Flail run in the Sword Coast. It is very different to my usual runs. I went to Durlag's Tower early and finished it. Then dealt with Aec' Letec after Drizzt joined the party. I dropped Bjorn Berserker to make room for Wulfgar when we started the Drizzt Saga in the...

I have just finished another Black Pits run, this time with a party of 5 good alignment characters. It's not difficult if you take your time. Here are their stats on being imported into Candlekeep. I am considering playing them solo after this run. The Dragon's Disciple is quite powerful...

I didn't get my fighting abilities back until I reached Candlekeep. That's OK. I didn't need them in Black Pits. I'll be a bit overpowered at the start of BG1, but will reach the experience cap there before long no doubt. I'm considering soloing the various characters who survived the Black...

I reached level 9 and took the 5 proficiency points in the Black Pits. The problem then is that I reach the Black Pits experience cap (600,000) before I get back my fighting abilities. :( 100,000 experience needed. :( At least she is a good cleric of level 9. I can see why some would choose to...

Thanks:)

I am planning on dual classing a Berserker to Cleric dual wielding flails. I have the choice of having **** in flails and *** in dual wielding or ***** in flails and ** in dual wielding. I'm wondering which is better.

Thanks for the info. I have just dual-classed to mage at level 10 and will see how it works out in due course.

Playing in the Black Pits, my level cap is 600,000. This means that I believe that I could have dual classed at a higher level than 7. How high could I have gone with my thief in order to get my thief skills back before leaving the Black Pits? I am thinking that level 10 would be OK

I have realised that I should have dual-classed at a much higher level, probably 10 or higher therefore I am dropping this run and starting this. At first things were straightforward, but the battle that brought the party up to level 5 was very touch and go. At least we earned a lot of gold...

I was using my talents as a thief to avoid being spotted by one of those self-righteous paladins when there was a flash of blue light and I found myself bound by a geas to that self-same paladin and four others in Baeloth’s Arena. We would never have chosen each other as companions, but had no...

Journal of Dark Helm. After leaving Candlekeep, Gorion was killed. We went to the FAI and then northwards where we killed Sonner et Al. Afterwards we joined up with Tenya who has accompanied us to Beregost and then Nashkel where we found suitable armour for her. We went to see farmer Brun and...

I have written stuff before mostly on the Beamdog forum. I used to write on another forum. I think that it was called Gamespot. However it deteriorated. :mad:

I'll have a look, but in the meantime here is my party imported into Candlekeep. BG1 should be VERY straightforward, but the experience cap in Siege of Dragonspear should make that harder. My wealth fell dramatically from 36757gp to 539gp. :( At least I am well equipped. This time I am...

Accumulating resources by fighting the Ice Salamanders. Straightforward but time consuming. One trip gained two potions of extra healing, another potions of fire resistance: the next a potion of absorption for each party member. It took three visits to buy the belt of inertial barrier. The...

Next we took on some Hobgoblins that included wizards. One was made ineffective by means of silence. The other was attacked using poison and their mirror image was effectively dispelled using true sight. Once the wizards were eliminated the rest of the hobgoblins were effectively dealt with...

Only just seen your posts as I've been out of the country for a while. Very Interesting I have just had the idea whilst away of trying a Lawful Evil Helmite party starting in the Black Pits. Having been away I lost track of where I had got to, so since I hadn't got very far, I'll start again...

Playing a run with Nirel the Nasty being the protagonist. It was Shar who demanded that I kill one of the house mothers who was at the forefront of the Drow opposition to him. We did try, but it was another follower of Lolth who actually succeeded though we got the blame for it. Shar pointed us...

I understand where you are coming from. However, I would like the clerics of different gods to have different attributes. In the past I have installed one of the above, but forget which it was. What I found annoying was the inability of clerics to wear the best armour. I am going to play the...
