Yet another bleeding BG thread *sigh*

Are you talking about BGI, or have I just not got them yet?
Gauntlets sound fun though.

[Apocalypse]

I think you can get the ogre power guantlet's fairly early, but can't remember. You can get the eagle bow fairly quickly once you reach Baldur's Gate. Coran-Kivan-Imoen make the best team. Just have all of them hide in the shadows, go somewhere, and fire away. It can really make short work of even high level guys.

[duke o' york]

Well I'm in Baldur's Gate but have only done a few quests. I'm going to try to do as much as possible there because Imoen needs the experience to be a better wizard so if I talk to everyone and break into as many houses as I can then that ought to pay off.

[Apocalypse]

You can walk around in the sewers to get some exp...the monsters respawn...not that quick, but you can get a good amount down there.

[DarkCloud]

bah. that's a waste of time- just purchase Tales of the Sword Coast and finish the game with that group- that's what I did

Though for some reason the areas leading to the Big Boss were already empty and cleared.

The **** maze at the end would have been horribly boring if the programmers hadn't 'cleaned' it... and even after being cleaned, it took forever to walk through- (although thanks to jamski, I know know how to speed up the game! )

[Apocalypse]

Hmmm....I had no problem slashing straight through the maze. I don't remember anything too difficult in it.

[Dis]

which maze was that?

[Apocalypse]

THE maze. There was one really one in the main storyline that they made a big deal about.

[DarkCloud]

The maze at the end of the game. You'll know it when you reach it
-
They made a big deal out of it in the storyline? Maybe I missed that... when did they mention it- in one of those books?

[Apocalypse]

Well, they didn't make that big a deal about it aside from "it's the maze...ooooo....it's so hard and it's twisty with turns that look like they take you to the end but not and you're like awww **** and have to go back then you do and actually go forward but you think you go back and you're like damn it and sleep for a while and maybe eat something but it's not required and eating isn't really an option only quaffy but anyway you're still in the maze and it's dark and since it's in medieval type setting you can't really change the gamma but you can because you're in modern times and if ya have an elf it doesn't even really matter because of the infravsion but it's still a maze and you can get lost but you won't if you have some rope but that's not handled by the game engine so you can't so you just keep going forward and eventually you get out but in the meantime maybe you can sleep with Safana or whatever her name is since she's pretty hot and shows some clevage and it wouldn't be too hard just to sneak into some corner and have a little fun and you can play doctor especially have some healing potions since you probably have a ****load of them at the end of the game and if you don't there is a cheat code which gives you some free ones along with the green cure poision ones and doesn't green mean something is poisonous, well of course not since Moutain Dew is green and a good way to keep you awake and because of that it'd be a good idea to go fill up a Nalgene bottle with some Moutain Dew before playing this part of the game since you have a nice container with something to drink in it and you'll be set if you have to sit and reload when you get to the final battle since it's kinda tough and if you don't find it tough it might just keep crashing for no apparent reason like it did for me and that was pretty ****ty so eventually I gave up but this was only the most recent time I played it not the first so I had beaten it before and knew I could so I just said **** it and go on to Baldur's Gate 2 but anyway it doesn't matter because they did seem to talk about that maze a bit more than they had to"

[duke o' york]

Wow, a stream-of-(un)consciousness post there.

I may well pay a visit to the sewers because I haven't had a decent scrap in ages, and my characters might forget how or something.
Well, there was the Gorpal Hind incident, which was lots of fun, and quite lucrative too, and the three wizards guarding the "secret items for the head of the thieves' guild" (I can do spoiler-saving too ), but that wasn't much of a fight really.

[Skanky Burns]

So.... theres a maze?

[duke o' york]

Damn it Skanky! Why not just go and ruin the whole of the rest of the game for me?





An opportunity for you to post a link to a walkthrough, if you can be bothered to find one.

Or I could just pretend that I've spoilered a link to a walkthrough

I'm guessing that was a hilarious joke Drogue, something like that below:
