My new game is a trio: an inquisitor, a berserker and a fighter thief. Tenya and Thorin have joined the party and we are now heading for Nashkel. Tenya is good as a cleric, but needs help with strength in order to wear armour. She currently has 2 DUHM spells and a Strength of one spell...

I am actually quite pleased with it as enemies are more numerous and use better AI. I have also forgotten what the mods were so I am getting surprises all the time. It's almost like getting a new game. 🙂 I am currently running a trio: an inquisitor, a berserker and a fighter thief. Tenya and...

I couldn't believe it. The game came to an end because of wanting to see the Amazing Oompah explode one more time. One blow is all it took. I didn't have time to use command. :mad: At least it happened quickly, when I was still on level 1. It's more annoying at level 6.

@Alesia_BH My installation has reverted back to a heavily modded installation that I used months ago. It was always there on my external hard drive, and GoG has linked to that rather than the unmodded version that I subsequently installed on the same drive. I am actually quite pleased with it...

When I reinstalled from GoG I found that the game isn't quite the same. I'm wondering if there are some mods installed.

Unfortunately my run with Theo has been lost due to having to replace my computer. My printer died and I couldn't install the drivers for my new one! The computer was choc a block. Do I start again with the same characters or have a completely new run, that is the question.

Whilst I have done the Neera quest a few times, nowadays I just avoid her. It's easy enough to do! It's also easy to avoid Baeloth. It's also easy enough to avoid Dorn if you don't like him. Just ignore him in the FAI! If you don't like EE characters, just avoid them. Whilst I am not fond of...

I don't know anything about Hexxat I'm afraid. A quick update on Theo who now has rep of 20. We are about to go shopping and will then visit the Iron Throne.

It's interesting. Compltely different to BG1 and BG2 being more linear. That is one downside. The other is that the number of PCs that you can take from BG1 is VERY limited. You can't take a Cleric, a Paladin or Coran from BG1 for instance, one reason that I have my current party. I like to have...

Since I am also doing SoD, Alesia will be WAY ahead of me shortly, particularly as I intend to also complete Durlag's Tower. Theo did indeed complete the Tower down to the last of the warders. However Theo wasn't finding all the traps so we decided to return to the Gate before attempting the...

I just wish that there were Cassandra images available where she has leather armour and no armour so that some of the sisters can be rangers or mages. I'm not very good at taking the head from one image and putting it onto another body. :( I made the mistake of dropping Dorn before completing...

I am thinking of trying to redeem a Blackguard or other Chaotic Evil Character next. I use images on the web for inspiration. The idea of using sisters came from the large number of images available for Cassandra from Dragon Age.

I actually played it before seeing the reply. Reputation was 20. I got Baeloth to join, then Viconia and then Dorn, dropping off Dynaheir at the FAI. Summoned four skeletons buffed by chant, bless, strength of one, remove fear. Helen used truesight, Baeloth cast web, and I then let the AI...

A quick Update on Helmata, Helen Theo and Dynaheir. Details to follow Journal of Helmata Most battles in Cloakwood were straightforward. The battles against mages in the mines were made trivial by getting them to waste their spells on summoned skeletons who were immune to them. In addition...

@Alesia_BH That looks like fun!

Journal of Helmata The battle at the bandit camp was straightforward. We didn't even have to use Dynaheir's fireballs against Taurgosz Theo took on Tazok's tent single handed, but his potion of Fire Breath wasn't all that effective. [Usually it kills one of the enemy and disables the spells of...

One of the many genres of music that I enjoy. https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?q=devil+gate+drive&mid=4D5D6C8F57DE926473884D5D6C8F57DE92647388&FORM=VIRE

Unlike you, I bought BG1 in a shop and didn't even know that SoA existed for years. I had no internet, so everything that I learned, I learned from experience. For me that kept it new far longer than otherwise would have been the case. As a result, I acctually prefer BG1 to SoA. Then came the...

Journal of Helmata The mines turned out to be straightforward. Dynaheir's web followed up with fireballs qhickly killed Mulahey. The same was true of Lamalha's party. We rested at the Carnival. When we returned to Nashkel we charmed Oublek and protected him from fear. We then got him to...

Journal of Helmata We bought Theo a venomous dagger after which Xzar and Montaron joined us. Montaron proved himself to be excellent at pickpocketting and aquired a cloak from Algernon and items too numerous to mention at Ulgoth's Beard. We also did some shopping there which impoverished us. We...
