No natural weapons, but he can use all simple weapons + rapier, shortbow and longsword because he has bard levels. Give him a decent magic quarterstaff (yes, a quarterstaff) and he should MASH.

Oh, but he's a Kobold... damn...

Give him a rapier then, and he'll use it twohanded, get 1.5x his huge STR bonus and THEN he'll MASH

there's a really good long sword in act 3. I normally gave it to that certain lady from the first campaign (you know who- spoiler). but if you aren't using her you can give the longsword to Deekin.

Plus there are many other good long swords. Or use enserric. I forgot bards can use long swords.

I typically gave Deekin either maces or clubs, both of which he could use with a shield.

2) I got the girl! Also I know her true name, so I can make her do whatever I want.

I hope you didn't actually use the True Name, however, since it changes the end story. Having her True Name (you could always use it if necessary ) and not using it at least up to the end of the actual plot of the game means you get the proper epilogue result.

Good lord, it sounds as if HOTU is a proper game- the one that should have shipped the first time. Alternate endings? Persistant characters? Phew.

4) I didn't see any bugs.

Count yourself very lucky. I've encountered a TON of rather nasty bugs, including henchmen suddently turning hostile to one another and to plot-critical NPCs (very very bad), broken plot elements, broken NPC behavior, game crash bugs... you name it.

An awesome game. I just wish they'd worked out all of those annoying bugs (and this coming from someone playing on the latest patch, too )

[Jamski]

The best thing about HotU is that it allows you to SetLocalInt on an object when you spawn it. You have no idea how useful that is. And they finally fixed DelayCommand, as you can see from the amazing in-game cutscenes, which is also bloody useful. Oh, and the Underdark tileset is great too.

I may just be getting HotU sometime soon. Maybe.

I did! To relieve her of her guilt though. Does that count?

Must be the user.

I didn't get one single bug either *shrugs*

I had bugs with the cutscenes with my old system. It was actually below the minimum processor specs. It was a P3 700. And 256 megs of ram, with a geoforce 2 MX400 card. I had a problem with cutscenes specifically.

This really only came into play in the cut scene before the final confrontation. Because it was bugged, I had to hit escape to get out of it. But this entirely skipped the conversation with the final confrontation, forcing me to finish the game in only one way. I'm avoiding spoilers here

No problems with my new system though. Or no major gameplay problems I should say. There may have been a minor bug or two.

I did find a grammatical error when replaying Shadows of Undrendtide the other say. In a conversation thread with Dorna when discussing her training. But that's a different expansion.

[Dis]

well anyways. I'm back to Folderol. I got sidetracked by a few games of civ3 and SMAC.

The only thing I hate is when my maps get wiped. I'm the kind of character that likes to search every part of every area and make sure I've explored everything with my maps. I don't like it when I lose them.

[MattH]

I've noticed that as a bug- I'll be walking and walking and my map won't update .

[Dis]

that happens to me sometimes. It means the server is lagging.

Unless you are talking about single player, then that would be a problem.
