Haha, nice going, the mighty hero running away from a bunch of kids.

I finished NWN btw, still got to install SoU, and still got to buy HotU maybe. My dwarven fighter was a kick-ass character i might say, with the proper equipment you're pretty much invincible. It's not fair that equipment that gives elemental or magic protection doesn't stack though. But still, that ring of elemental resistance is one of the best items in the game imo, all those traps and spells that didn't hurt me.
Dunno about your barbarian, but i had some troubles with my Will-saves sometimes, so i bought a helmet that gave me protection for mind-affecting spells. That was a real relief.

And yeah i killed that orc too.

Yes, the children are censored, there was even talk about Atari or Hasbro complaining that there shouldn't be kids at all in HotU, wankers, what's a city without kids?

lmao ox, very funny.

glad your enjoying the game, the offal campaign gets a bitto much flak, it's not as bad as some people make out imo.

the will save fails are the biggest pain in the arse in the game. paladins are boring tossers but they get very good saves and immunity to fear, very useful idd. oh, and a few good buff spells later on.

Aight, so advanced a bit further:

I had the Elk tribe break their agreement with the Luskan forces, no i didn't kill everyone but actually helped them get the cure (they ARE double-hard barbarians after all ), and ofcourse killed the commander who infected them. Asking me 3000 GP for it, tss, if i wasn't already gonna kill him that made me do it.

The elk tribe barbarian warriors were suprisingly tough I could easily take 2-3 at a time, but when they were like 5 i had a veeery hard time. They were also constantly critically hitting me, and i was like "wtf dudes i'm wearing a helmet", but i only later on found out that i in reality was wearing a circlet that LOOKED like a friggin helmet.

The trial-quest with the barbarian was pretty cool, but i lost the trial. Partly cos i wasn't persuasive enough to bribe one guy and because i had treathened another guy to rip off his leg if he didn't give me cash, BEFORE i had to interview him on the case. That kinda cost me. But anyhoo, i bribed one jury member and that was also the amount jury members that were convinced by my pleading. I was SO ready to whack every non-cooperative jury member plus the otyher party's advocate, but sadly they all were teleported out right away.


I entered the Coldwood then, already found one of the orc leaders and killed him; and entered the wizards tower and took the snow globe, and that's more or less where i quit this session. But dammit, those huge fire elementals are bastards. One is ok, but two can be a bitch

So, i'm at the beginning of chapter 4! Did a whole lot today: the Moonwood, the snow globe quest, the creator ruins and the giants/dragon's lairs.

I killed every dragon i met methinks (Klauth, gold, green, bleu and white dragon), but only AFTER fulfilling their stupid quests ofcourse. It was when i started asking for (outrageous) rewards that they started getting pissed; and thus set my dwarven tank off on a dragon-chopping spree. I should start a business in dragon's blood, must have like whole kegs of it by now lol.

The giants (hill and fire) were relatively easy to take, even their "champions", but FFS, that fire giant king, Kolgor or something, wtf was that! he kept whooping me, over and over. I managed to whack him in the end, but still, very very nasty bitch that one.

Oh, and the "creators" suck man! They couldn't even hit an elephant, makes you wonder how in fucksname they managed to be world dominators once. Even my mum would dominate THEM. And i'm not even talking about them complicated riddles in the dungeon, spent wya too much time on that.


So, after all the madness and destruction (still firmly on chaotic evil-course alignmentwise! ) i decided it was time to clear my inventory out plus do some serious shopping. (as i was hauling around some 370k gp) Basically, the shopping list can be reduced to:
->20 potions of speed (lifesavers!)
->30 potions of heal (w00t)
->ring of power (cost me 200k, but extremely powerful )
->bought a greataxe +2 and had it forged into stonefire (well, better late than never :p )

The smithy guy tried to rip me off; i first gave my +3 greataxe (thinking i'd get a nice +3 plus fire damage), but he forged into a friggin +2!! he actually DOWNGRADED my faithful axe and dared to ask for 20k gp!?! So, i reloaded and bought the +2 axe and used that one instead, and now i'm writing this i wonder why i didn't kill the bitch.


And why is everyone always telling me that i must understand Aribeth's feelings and stuff? I mean, HELLO, i've killed like tons of dragons, entire barbarian and giant tribes, travelled into the past and into a snow globe, and no one is giving me any respect! Time to kill Aribeth, i would think!


or to say it with the words of my char:

NO ONE WALKS AWAY!! (and they never do )

P.S. in case it might not have dawned on anyone by now...i'm liking NWN very much now, even more than my last post. Started off slowly (the story), but now it's on full speed!





Here are some trophy pics! Too bad that Klauth disappeared so quick, would have made a nice pic as well.
