Does that actually work? Is the ability actually tied to the item, or is it simply in game SUPPOSED to be tied to it, and since you can't remove it anyway they never made properties for it. The reason I ask this is that I gave my character Edwin's amulet through Shadowkeeper, but since it cannot be removed from Edwin, it seems the developers simply gave the extra lore and spell slots to Edwin inherently, and simply made it so that the amulet is supposed to be the source in game.

Oops. Sorry, I haven't been around long enough to know the correct terms.

I haven't played BG yet, as I started with BG2.

But yes, ain't that a hoot!? The belt keeps her alive. I'll be damned. Clever folks those black isle, bioware people

there are many characters in the game that have items with the property titled "minimum one hp", which means they cant be killed. imoen's belt is the first one.

yes, it IS edwin's amulet that gives him the extra spells per level.

generally speaking every actor in the bg world is one type of character class or another. any special abilities are usually tied to undroppable (and unpickable, therefore not found when killed) items that grant the ability. for example, most creature attacks are literally "weapons" equipped by them with their own stats. in unique cases, such as mazzy's special abilities, these were added to her using the same format that gives kits their abilities.

basically any spell or ability can be given to any item or character with an editor. i imported my 20 INT gnome illusionist/theif into bg2 and wanted him to have something unique, so i made him some goggles, which like jan's help with finding traps, also gives him permanent detect illusions. i rarely play with standard npc's either.

When she gets to 1 hp she leaves the dungeon screaming "I'm not going to die here i'm not!" Or something of that nature. Everything after that happens as normal.


I did the very same thing to see what would happen. She yelled that and ran away. I gave chase but she eluded me.

Correct. Imoen's belt has some sexy properties:

Immunity to:
Petrification
Polymorph
Powerword: Sleep
Sleep
Death
Slay
Imprisonment
Charm creature
Panic
Level drain
Beserk
Power word: Kill
Disintegrate
Poison
Stun
Hold creature
Morale break
And finally (and most importantly) it sets her minimum hp to "1"

- so yeah, you can't hack her to death nor cast a spell to kill her...

ps.

Imoen is not the only charactor to wear this belt, Mellissan has it too... (and one or two other charactors that I can't recall)

Dundee Slaytern 10-19-2001 05:39 AM

Immune to 'Morale Break'? http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

Skunk 10-19-2001 06:13 AM

Yeah - immune to morale break.
Have NO idea why they put that one in...
