I'm not being attacked by merchants.....

...yet

Actually, there's a nice way to script special events based on your individual character. I can make a trigger that checks for the name of your god, so if you name your god "XX67hdglhs9!" only you will meet a check for that name. And then gives you 20,000,000,000 gold *grins* or set the shopkeepers to "hostile" *frowns*

Hell, even the Druid merchants are favorable.

ACK!

All's well that ends well.

Tuberski is worshipping a false idol! The true God is the almighty "XX85ghatwi0:". Kneel before his power ye puny mortals!

I had a peek at this yesterday afternoon and it looks really good. If only I could afford a tasty braodband connection at home. And HotU. And a month or so off work on paid leave.

I just need a legal key now. I have everything else in place. Well, the high-paying job with plenty of free time aside.

Well, that makes two of us ...
Deviance should get their act together

[DrSpike]

It is my imagination or is HotU much easier than SoU? I just waltzed through the big fights at the end of chapter 1 with my kickass fighter buffed by Deekin and supported by Tomi.

I guess it could be that SoU was the first NWN game I had played, and I goofed by stopping Dorna taking cleric levels, but it really does seem easier. I used my character from SoU as instructed, and he was only level 13 to begin, which is right for this game.

chapter 1 isn't too bad. Chap2 and esp. chap 3 has harder fights.

Wait until you meet a certain monk...

* Arnelos -must- play as his Lawful Good Cleric in HotU and then online

[Arnelos]

Ok, I went and bought HotU. Just started playing through with my Lawful Good Human Cleric (I really like playing Clerics... though of various different alignments).

[DrSpike]

Give us a commentary as you go through. The start is quite annoying I found because there is a trap or 2.

[Jamski]

Or 40

You can open the game in the toolset and delete all the traps though if you want *grins*

[DrSpike]

That would be cheating.

[Arnelos]

Pfft. I'm playing a Cleric, remember?

I just cast "Find Traps" and "ZING!" all of those nastry traps in a room full of traps go bye-bye!

Furthermore, having the Protection from Elements spell up on all of my party members means that the occassional trap doesn't hurt so much (though I'd rather it not wear down those shields).

So far, I've found the game pretty easy... I've just made it to Level 2 of the Undermountain dungeon. I've been travelling with Deekin and Sharwyn so far, though I rescued Daelan as well (just haven't spent the money yet to give him a bunch of cool equipment like I have with Deekin and Sharwyn).

[Dis]

I wouldn't waste money on him. Unless you plan on using him. You're going to need some of that money for later. It gives you more options. Plus there are some cool things you can buy in chapter 2- and 3.
