Yeah, Six... yer probably right about the silver necklace and scroll of Grease. I got on with the gettin' last night and said screw 'em. My party has 65,000 gold anyway, and Baldur's Gate is full of goodies and magic. Initially it was just the challenge of thinking it MIGHT be able to be opened. Oh well hell.
Yer also right about the Potion Strength (duh). I was coming up with that off of the top of my head.(ooops).
ElfBane, if this is a thread hijack, it's all cool. I might try the Fields of the Dead after this go round. And there's a good chance I'll be contacting you regarding install info. My "tech" computer skills leave something to be desired. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thanks everyone. I've said it before...this forum rules.

You forgot about the other potion ;)

Kinda tough to do when I don't even have the discs anymore. ;) And isn't Fields of the Dead the one that adds lots of Level-Draining Undead and no way to get Restored? Or is that Dark Side of the Sword Coast?

Traps are relocated and encounters are moved, so you need to *really* dungeon crawl with that thief again! If interested, the mod is hosted at Pocket Plane Group.
