Pierre McGuire posted:you have to kill at least one lich to get it, but Daystar is in the bridge district and can cast sunray 1x/day, which is also fairly effective against liches. sunray normally needs you to be like level 14 and a cleric so it's a nice way to deal with liches early. there's a bunch of other undead daystar is good against too! You can stealth in and grab it without too much trouble I think. I don't remember him ever following me out of the room.

mitochondritom posted:Definitely take a bard and a druid along. These two classes got a lot of love compared to BG. The bards get plenty of instrumental items and also a bunch of different songs. Druids get a lot of cool spells that aren't just priest spells with goodberry chucked ontop. In particular there is a fantastic summon beetle spell which owns. Someone who made Icewind dale loved beetles. Bards also get level 8 spells (lol)

Burial Island in IWD's expansion had imo the best exchange in the series. You are walking around fighting undead creatures on an ancestral burial island and encounter a wizard. He is a regular pompous rear end-wizard like the chicken dude from BG1 or whatever. He sells a lot of really good scrolls and poo poo. So you go back outside and start fighting more undead but eventually you encounter a group of undead shaman. You can ask them "Why do you let that dickhead wizard live on your island?" and they reply that "He is a wizard and he is too powerful. All wizards must be destroyed before they become too powerful" and it's just one of those "gently caress yeah dude you're right!" moments... and then they kick your loving rear end

Perfect Potato posted:So is the pathfinding in IWD the worst of all the games? Because I'm getting a strong vibe of Mr. Burns' Viruses Trying to Squeeze Through the Door everytime I try to do anything with these lemmings. At least BG1 had the decency of making 80% of the game pointlessly large and spacious This is why I don't understand the praise for Durlag's Tower.

Multiclass in IWD, don't bother with the aggravation of dual classing. In one of the early dungeons you will run into enemies that cast Dispel and remove your buffs. This is strangely never seen again and you can comfortably buff and turn enemies into mincemeat with multiclassed fighters from that point on.

Which NWN game was like "look into this warehouse" and there were like 60 mercenaries in there, and then was like "go look in this guy's house" and there were like 90 mercenaries in there. Like dude why are there 12 fighters in your bedroom. My friends and me just stopped playing out of boredom.

My favorite part of IWD is how they had mages that cast Dispel in the second dungeon... but at no other point in the game will you ever be dispelled as your fighters and buffs spiral into hilarity.

The only thing that annoys me about playing BG2 nowadays is how the pathfinding is still poo poo and one of my guys will have wandered halfway across the map in the wrong direction before I notice.

Azuren posted:I've played before as inquisitors where the M.O. is "pop detect evil, are they red? gently caress it, put em to the sword". Hell, there's that one paladin in the city who does just that, if you have any evil party members. This one though, I'm trying to temper my, uh, murder essence. I've put my foot down and decided that "goading people into a fight they'll lose in order to get the XP and loot from slaughtering them" is not, in fact, a Lawful Good thing to do. Sparing everyone who yields after being beaten. Can't barge into peoples' houses and loot everything that's not nailed down, a classic adventurer staple. Can't lie in dialogues (good times when your choices are 'Uh, yeah, we're $OTHERNAME totally, uh yeah" or "RAAAAARGH BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!").

Specialist mages (other than Edwin) and dual classes are a waste of thought and an increase in aggravation for new players. Don't bother with either imo.
