There are some items in the game i just can´t play without.
For instance: the first thing i always do is go for daystar.
And i also never miss the belt of frost giant strengh in the underdark and the cloak of reflection.
Are there any other must haves i should know of?

Gimlee 04-29-2001 09:36 AM

Boots of speed
Glasses of identification
ring of wizardry
robe of vecna
gauntlets of archery, weapon skill
many others.....

Dreamer128 04-29-2001 09:38 AM

Robe of Vecna rocks!!!
I downloaded something wich made it look like the robe of Archmagie, big improvement.

Gimlee 04-29-2001 09:56 AM

Where did you download that improvement dreamer128 ???

Staralfur 04-29-2001 11:39 AM

I always find the ring of human influence is very useful - especially as you can get it right at the start. Also the ring of Gaxx is very handy to have around. Oh and of course plenty of healing potions http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

You can get it from this very website - Try the downloads section of the BG2 page - Will be called 'Bonus CD' or 'Bonus Merchants'. They have some great stuff.

Gimlee 04-29-2001 12:06 PM

No, I know that. I meant that he downloaded something that makes the robe of vecna look like a robe of archmagi.

Tired, trying to work. Seem to be misreading things. Not good.

I'd go with you on that one, I've played an archer too, and it was very useful

Dreamer128 04-29-2001 01:59 PM

I got the improvements from this board actually, some guy sad he had made some improvements wich you could download through his post, looks realy good.

Dreamer128 04-29-2001 02:15 PM

I may still have the improvements around, anyone wants me to check?

I found the Staff of the Magi exceptionally useful. Its' offensive capabilities are a little too indiscreet for my liking, but the ability for Nalia to become invisible at will definitely compensated for the lack of a good scout in the group once Yoshimo died.

Tancred

Damn right too. It isn't easy to get hold of!

The gauntlets of archery are in the druid grove, maybe in the troll house.

The glasses of identification are on the second floor of Galean Bayle's house.

You can have a ring of wizardry if your main character is a mage and has the planar sphere as a stronghold. Or, if you do Jaheira's quest with the harpers, in the harper hold, when Galvery wants to kill you, a mage has one.
