I am just starting here.. got to the Slavers Den.in Chapter 2. and I can't seem to keep anyone alive long enough to kill them off.. start with a full party.. full health and protective spells in place... not only are they hard to kill.. there are still a few left when my last party member dies... HELP!!!!!!

First of all, Welcome to the Ironworks Jozie [img]graemlins/music02.gif[/img]

Yea the slaver pins are a bit tough in chapter 2 but you'll have to fill me in a little bit such as what characters are you using, what level and forth. Then I'll be able to lend you a hand [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

my party....
Fighter Lev 7 Morgain (mine)
Ranger Lev 8 Minsc
Fighter/Cleric Lev 8 Anomen
Fighter/Druid Lev 9 Jaihera
Bounty Hunter Lev 11 Yoshimo
Cleric Mage Lev 7 Aerie

not sure what other info you need..

Thanks

Hi Jozie, welcome to Ironworks!

You've got the same party i started off with (except my main character is a Ranger) - i'm not sure about the amount of enemies in the Slaver Stockage - but it was tough when i did it i remember that.

Have you got Anomen, Jaheira or Aerie equipped with any summon spells? they make good fodder and take the brunt of the assault from yourself - allowing you to pepper them from afar.

Buffing yourself up with Armour of Faith and spells like Aid, Bark Skin, and Resist fear will help to keep you hammering away at them as along as you can.

Mages can be an absolute pain in the butt at the start of the game, so target them with bows and slings to interrupt spell casting.

I wont give too much away as its nice to discover your own ways of doing things, once you get a nice rounded party things become a little easier to deal with [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hope this helps!

First: I believe you enter the slaver stockade via the sewers. Note that there is another entrance outside, northeast of Copper Coronet.

Second: Use disabling spells: Sleep, Hold, Stun, Horror,... Those slavers have lousy saves.

Third: Don't be afraid of running. It is always better to retreat and return fully healed than to reload.

Fourth: If you really cannot prevail, wait for a few level-ups, then beat the crap out of them...

A little cheese tactic, here. I've found it's easier barging through the front door of the compound that it is going through the secret entrance in the sewers. Humor me and try it.

you guys are great.. gonna try all your suggestions...
when you have time.. let me know what your ideas of a wellrounded party.. and who do I leave behind in exchange for Krogan..

ok I took your advice and decided to barge through the front door... however.. Yoshi cant seem to pick the lock... am I at the right door?

Jozie

<font color="gold">Hehe, that depends which door you are at. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
It is fairly easy to find the right one, if you look at the map, you will see one building that looks like the front of a ship. This is the right one. Another thing that will prove that you are at the right door, is that it stands a guard with a two-handed sword outside. ;)
If you are at the right door, and Yoshi can't pick the lock, try bashing it in with your warrior. If that doesn't work either, have your warrior use Draw Upon Holy Might first, so he gets a higher strength. ;) </font>

...or cast Knock on the door and run inside quickly!
