    • Yeah, and there's nothing on the forums to explain the problem.

      I wish they'd do stuff like that. Shame, because I've got a late start tomorrow morning, having to skip work to go to the dentists' and fancied playing a little bit of NWN to pass the time.

      • Play GW or WoW.

        • No.

          Took my rogue archer through the black oak in the nettle grotto, and got my ass soundly kicked. I killed 2 nettle wights for less xp than I'd get for a nettle burglar, and used far too many healing potions.
          Still, hopefully it'll be back up again soon.

            • My level 10 fighter/mage now has 2 pages of the codex, and a load of new friends!

              Great fun tonight, eventually.

                  Protection vs negative energy is your friend here. As a Rogue, either read a scroll of it, or get a cleric to craft you some potions of the spell. Lovely stuff.

                  • I know that that's their main attack, but it's tough to find clerics or even scrolls at only level 4. Know where I can find some shuriken for my level 4 monk?

                      • No, I'm not going to buy either WoW or GW. Is that the question you wanted answering?
                        I'll download the next NWN patch though, and probably buy the sequel as soon as I possibly can though.

                          And your reason?

                            • I've been online for half of the Sunday. That's all time could spare. I decided to trash my Pale Master (Rodor) on Folderol and better test this character in the SP campaigns. I got him through SoU Friday/Saturday and am in the mid of HotU right now. I have to say, I am pleasantly surprised with this prestige class.

                              I always had a soft spot for classes/builds, that are well rounded and can stand their own in as many situations as possible. I'm approaching level 20, doing the missions around Lith'Myathar and there is little out there, that can even hit me. I am basically a caster playing a melee fighter, I wear full plate, wield a longsword and a tower shield and have ample hitpoints. You may laugh, but in average I get more hp than a fighter. A fighter has CON+1d10, which averages in CON+5.5. I get CON+1d6+3, which averages in CON+6.5. The +3 comes from the Deathless Vigor feat, which I get for free.

                              I also have a very good AC. At level 19, using the normal HotU equipment, I have 46 AC unbuffed. Most mobs permanently miss me. I also laugh at spell casters. The bane of "normal" melee fighters - mind affecting spells, are not dangerous even without clarity or immunity items - my will saves are excellent, as is my fortitude. I have 3 attacks per round, the lack of a good BAB I counter with high strength, which gives both AB and damage.

                              The character has 3 main weaknesses:
                              - Low reflex saves
                              - Can't cast in armor
                              - Low caster level --> problems with spell penetration

                              The first problem is nearly completely negated by energy buffer. Who needs to dodge traps and fireballs, if he can shrug off the damage. That I can't cast in armor is a non-problem for buffs (having a robe hotkeyed). In combat I don't cast usually, and if I do, I use still spells, which means no spell failure in armor. I concentrate on spells without saves, so the low caster level is not a problem either.

                              I solo most of the missions. I didn't need a henchman yet in HotU, and rarely did in SoU. I can summon a skeleton once a day, a normal undead twice a day and a greater undead once a day, if I need a hand. But that's seldom.

                              What's interesting is not the character itself, but if I have the patience to actually finish HotU for the first time. So far I always lost interest somewhere around the mind devourers.

                                And they are better than good, so he should be happy.
