But how can you get the combo?
Unfortunately, F/C/T is NOT a valid multiclass in BG2.
So, if we want to wear Jan's armor, we need to be:
A. Jan :D ... And Jan can't cast Hardiness.
B. Bard or Thief with Use Any Item.

So, if we are at B, in order to cast Hardiness, we must be F/T or F/M/T. Thus, no AoF. On the other hand, if we CAN cast AoF, we must be C/T, and thus, no Hardiness.
So?
How can we reach invulnerability?

I don't get it...
Maybe i just missed something... Or maybe i'm just too tired... :D

Gah! I hate it when I am wrong!

I read wrongly and saw the F/M/C as a F/T/C... ...

Thus... the Fighter/Cleric will make full use of the DoE then. Note though... Paladins and Fighter/Clerics can attain 85%. Evil Fighter/Clerics can get 110%.

DoE 20%
AoF 25%
Hardiness 40% -> 85%
Mods 25% (for evil only) -> 110%

If you throw in the helmet, all of them will attain maximum resistance to crushing attacks.

Apologies to Lord Lothar for my earlier mistake.

Oh, and by the way. Do fists deal crushing damage?

Alson 08-21-2002 08:41 AM

Yes.

Ok, now it makes sense...

And... Don't feel bad Dundee... You're allowed to make one mistake per month... :D

Damn! I was looking forward to trying a F/T/C :( ! I was sure it was a legit combo too until I just checked.

I just remembered Haer'Dalis has 15% immunity to physical damage being a tiefling, so he could use the DoE and Jans armour to gain permanent 60% resistance which is pretty cool. If you equip Ronarch's Horn, this will make him permanently immune to crushing weapons. Is that a room full of golems or elementals? oh joy!

I see you're closing in on the big 5000 Dundee :D

Another interesting possibility is the BMU.....the Shapeshifting Table at GameBanshee has a description of the Iron Golem, who has 20% Resistance to all physical damage. Since the BMU pretty much turns you into an Iron Golem, we could take a Paladin and add
B.M.U.: 20%
DoEasthaven: 20%
AoFaith: 25%
Hardiness: 40%
------------------
105%, without the Barbarian. Not only that, but check out the Iron Golem's Magic Resistance, Magic Damage Resistance, and Elemental Resistance: They're all in the neighborhood of 80% to 127%. Oh, my lordy lord!

Doesn't the BMU just make you look like an iron golem? I don't think it gives you resistances.

I don't know, I've never had it made. Still, though, it's definitely worth a shot!
