I got the Pride of Legion+2 and also the Red Dragon Armor today... both armor class is -1, but which one do u think is better? The fire resistance or the +2 bonus? Thanx, anyway what does the Winter Wolf Pelt do? Can anyone tell me???
|
They both have their + and -. The elemental resistance provided by the Red Dragon Scale is excellent, but the Pride of the Legion +2 provides superior combat protection.
They are both AC -1. The Red Dragon scale has a -3 slashing modifier, with -1 for missile and piercing, but the Pride has -4 slashing and -3 for missile and piercing. I'd go with the Pride because of this since fire damage is no where near as common as slashing and piercing attacks. Plus, the Pride of the Legion looks cool with its golden tint.

oh and another question, is there a Xp remover that actually lets my Pally learn more spells after hitting L17??? Thanx

IIRC, your paladin, even at higher levels, will never have more than 3 lvl 1, 3 lvl 2 and 3 lvl 3 spell slots availiable to him/her.

Well if u have ToB that might happen.But i am not sure. Cheers [img]smile.gif[/img] Xen </font> |
Well, I vote for the red dragon scale.
The scales, along with the Ring of Fire Resistance, and, a few other assorted fire resist items can bring your fire resist over 100%. This is a good thing. You see, your mages can lob fireballs and actually heal your tank in the um, hee hee, heat of battle. Healing from clerics in battle is chancy, some times they cast a bit to slow. But healing from multiple fireballs or fiery blasts is instant, and, happens frequently. |
The Paladin has access to the first 4 levels of Cleric spells. He can never have more than 3 per level (don't think WIS makes any difference) and his caster level cannot go above 9 (making spells like Holy Smite pretty bad for Paladins)

I don't think I've ever seen so many errors in a game manual. |

Further proof that Paladins get higher casting levels is that they can use the draw upon holy might spell, and at higher levels they will get +5 to their stats (requires 20th level casting level). Stupid book! |
You wouldn't believe how many typos and errors we've found in the manual while making the Spells Reference. And i only did the ToB parts!! Take a quick look at the Arcane Spells page. Most of the things written in red font are manual errors. :rolleyes:

Stupid book!</font>[/QUOTE]Hehe [img]smile.gif[/img] I usually use SixofSpades BG2 Guide for info, but it doesn't seem to cover quite as much as the manual. As for Paladins, well they are then even more potent priests than I previously thought then. |
Yeah, Paladins are decent. Probably the easiest fighter type to play. Note easiet, not best. ;)

One quirk though. Despite the blatant display that Paladins can get Caster Level 20, I can never summon Skeleton Warriors with them. Weird huh?
|
I've gotta suggest the red dragon plate (back on topic). Granted, it's not quite as good defensewise, but the fire resistance is nice, plus...it's dragon! how can you not wear it?
|
Hey, what is the best Armor in the game? Drow stuff doesn't count. Can anyone tell me the states for the Shadow Dragon Armor(if there is one) Thanx!
|
i like the armor of the hart, there is a shadow dragon armor, not sure it's stats though
|
Shadow Dragon Scale Armour?
+50% Acid Resistance Base AC 1 |
In SoA alone, Armour of the Hart wins all if you only want raw AC power. The Red Dragon Scale Armour is probably the most useful though.

What was the Drow armor you got in the underdark from the Drow gang near the imprisonement "thingy".. +5 something? It´s easily the best armor I´ve encountered so far.

or Drow Adamantine chain +5 (AC 0) - and you can cast arcane spells while wearing [img]smile.gif[/img] |

Gee, if Paladins can really summon Skeleton Warriors, their solo runs will become muuuuch easier. [img]tongue.gif[/img] I think I tried at level 20+, never bothered to try again after that.

http://www.boomspeed.com/carathrax/pasw.jpg Indeed, Paladins *can* summon Skeleton Warriors. I haven't tried a Ranger yet, though. [img]smile.gif[/img] </font> |
<font color=white>The Red Dragon Scale Armor was they most powerfull armor in the game, because it was not seen as a Magicly Enchanted Armor so you could use a RoP +2 with it, making it very powerfull.
But with the Baldurash Fixpack fixing that.. it isn't considert that powerfull anymore though.. but it is still a real good armor: Red Dragon Scale: Dragon Scale armor is light of weight, strong, and resistant to fire. Because of these properties it is much sought after, but finding, let alone slaying, a powerful ancient dragon is near impossible. It is usually easier to search for an existing suit, such as this one. One should be careful wearing it near dragons, however, particularly red ones. STATISTICS: Bonuses: +50% Fire Resistance Armor Class: -1 Weight: 30 Requires: 8 Strength Not Usable By: Bard Mage Thief It make's an excellent armor for a Priest/Druid IMO. </font> [ 02-21-2003, 01:13 PM: Message edited by: Annatar ] |

Sir Exxon, animate dead can be cast by paladins, clerics and mages (including bards). Druids and Rangers cannot cast it. |

The Saving Throw adjustments due to a high CON are already on the list, and I have added the Paladin/Ranger "Level 9" confusion. I'll also be updating the entire Spell Library, to include every relevant detail from Xyx's BG2 Spell Reference--except those marked with Cheesy Wedge<font size=1>(TM)</font>. |
Guys, I have seen Dundee saying something about Armour of the Hart? What is that? And where do u get it? Can someone give me the states as well??? Thank u for the help......

The Armor of the Hart is the best enchanted armor in SoA. It might have slightly better AC Modifiers against Slashing and Crushing than normal Full Plate. It has no other enchantments, and is therefore inferior to at least 2 other sets of Full Plate, but both of those are in ToB.
