First, this is my party
Me(Cavalier)
Aerie
Jaheira
Minsc
Yoshimo
Keldorn
HEHE i have a reputation of 18
There are a few questions i wanna ask.
1) Why can't i gain control of de'arnise keep even after i finish the quest. Nalia talked to me at the end. i tried all the answers but in the end she would say that she will let the family take control of the keep therefore no keep for me

2)I can't seem to FIND YoSHI . the building in the top right corner of the temple district only has slained people inside(been there once during Korgan Quest)

3)Is Yoshimo gonna die later in the game because now he is in my party and he is really useful.

4)Issit possible for me to LIkE Aerie(romance in the game). I have already told her i like her but she gave little response(when she argued with Jaheria)

5)My Aerie can't seem to learn the Restoration spell, why is that
does she need to wait for her level to go up?

1) As a Paladin you may receive a different Keep than that of De'Arnise...although it could have been something you said. That one I'm not 100% sure of.

2) ??? (Not sure of the question)

3) Eventually you'll have to replace Yoshimo. Jan Jansen is the best bet.

4) You can become romantic with either Jaheira, Aerie, or Viconia depending on what you say to them. The romance will blossom in Throne of Bhaal, whoever you pick.

Aerie should know Lessor Restoration when she reaches that level (Cleric). Mages also have the spell at a later level, and its possible she failed the chance to learn the spell or that she is unable to learn anymore spells at that spell level.

Look into picking up Viconia, she's the only true Cleric in the game and totally kick arse. Strap a Girdle of Hill Giant Strength on her and she's got 19 Str, 19 Dex, and 18 Wis. Not bad eh? With that said and done....

Minsc and Boo stand ready.

I will answer the first question. You do not get the keep for your stronghold because you are a Paladin they get something else. Only fighters get the keep

if she cant learn the spell because of inteligence then take potion to raise it temporaraly. then learn the spell.

Get My IronWorks Winamp skin

i have the Girdle of Hill Giant Strenght on Aerie =) ehhe 19 strenght
i also have the glove/bracers of dexterity on Keldorn eheheh. Well should i just throw yoshimo away now and build up Jan's level(i talked to him already,he waiting in his house). Will i miss the story of Yoshimo if i throw him away.....

And also i am in a dilemma over weapons, i have tons of good ones and i don't know which one to use. Whats the best weapon for my characters..........
And also Is Viconia REALLY BETTER than JAheira because i am begininig to Like Jaheira's Summon Fire Elemental and also Keldorn and Minsc didn't like Viconia joining my party(will there be lots of conflicts)

And also how do i put back my exp cap(i removed the exp cap thing).

You remove the file(s) that are installed from the original exp cap remover zip file (which was placed in the override folder). It would be good if you have a back-up copy of your original OVERRIDE folder before installing the exp cap remover.

Also, regarding Aerie and the Restoration spell, it is a cleric spell, you CANNOT learn cleric/druid spells in the game, she MUST level up to gain access to these spells.
Remember you are a paladin and since you have a rep of 18, it WILL NOT be a good idea to have Viconia in your party since she will likely to leave when your rep reaches 19 or above. And your party is good aligned and Keldorn is in there......*heeheeheeeeee*
As for weapon, it depends what weapon you've gave Keldorn and also it would be helpful if you tell us what weapons you have.

------------------

Keep Yoshi - if you drop him at this point you will miss out on a neat sub-storyline involving him. I find it better to let the story unfold...

Epona of The Laughing Hyenas

Hehe i somehow Dealt 1025 damage using Sunray to the shade lich which was during the UNseeing eye cult quest.

OK then. Have fun, mate. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

http://www.angelfire.com/anime2/memnoch/genwalk.gif http://www.angelfire.com/anime2/memnoch/memname.GIF

What style of fighting (e.g. sword & shield, dual wield ... etc) is your main character using?

------------------
Long live H22A1!!!!!

My main character is using sword and shield
i useing +3 fortress shield

damnit i spend too much money now must go hack more monsters

For weapon, base on what you have now I would recommend your cavalier use these weapons: Azure Edge (range attack and v.s. undead), Flame Tongue (trolls and undead in close encounters) and Daystar (yup....love the Sunray ability). Of course, I am assuming that you are proficient in axe and longswords.

------------------
Long live H22A1!!!!!

i somehoe screwd up my character selection part
i placed two skill points on Quarterstaff, two on longsword and two on sword and shield

Don't worry, I think you will get more weapon points as you level up. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

------------------
Long live H22A1!!!!!

So what about my other characters, what weapon is best for them?

The next time you get a weapon prof. slot on level up, take two handed sword. Your cavalier will thank you later. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

Again....contain SPOILERS:

I would say have Minsc dual wield axes (Stonefire and Frostreaver), Jaheria can have the staffs that she can use (although I prefer her to wield club and shield), Aerie can keep the flail for now, Yoshimo....well..... katanas and bow will do for now.
Since you are a paladin, and so is Keldorn, normally as what Cayle implied I would recommend him to wield a two hand sword and be skillful at it. But since you are into sword and shield along with proficiencies on single handed weapon, I'd give the 2-hand swords to Keldorn (or Minsc, if you don't want the ranger to dual wield).

------------------
Long live H22A1!!!!!

Or when the time comes, you can do a bit if IEE editing to turn a particular two hander into a longsword. I did that myself because I have a cavalier in one of my games and I just have a mental picture of knights fighting sword and shield.

------------------
- Cayle

Heh....for some reason....I'm kinda obsess with dual wielding...... http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...les/tongue.gif

------------------
Long live H22A1!!!!!

i too, have an obsession with dual wielding...

if i were you, concentrate on the AC of your characters. let aerie strap up a shield, jaheira club and shield, keldorn, two handed sword and yoshi on the short sword of backstabbing and a bow. i recommend you get mazzy. VERY effective missile thrower. http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

I think Jaheria should have belm, being good with scimitars, correct me wrong! K?K!

Coffee anyone?

HEHE just slept with Aerie, now she is mine hehehe.

Jaheria should have both belm and rashad talon. dueled with these and shes a good tank witht gorgon plate armour

"I was born of darkness. My fathers eyes closed before mine opened. I am not of this world or the other, and I have the right to be what I am..."

In terms of damage, a scimitar is a sensible choice (1d8). But if it is up to me and with all factors (other than basic damage) taken into consideration, I would prefer Jaheria to use the Blackblood Club when my party has obtained it, why?
- although it is a 1d6 weapon, it is consider as +3 enchanted to hit weapon
- it's got good combat bonuses: damage +3 and THAC0 +3
- it is a blunt weapon, hence she is able to damage clay golems
- it has acid damage (+3), hence it makes a good choice for troll killing

Welcome to the new boy! Most of your questions have already been answered, but I shall add a little bit for you:
.
1) Only Fighters/Multi-class fighters get the De'Arnise Keep, not Paladins
.
2) Yoshi? The building you went in with Korgan (wasn't that Lord Pemberton or something) should have nowt to do with this
.
3) When you need to replace Yoshimo, you will retrieve Imoen. You won't screw anything up by not having him OR Imoen though - the game can still continue
.
4) Yep. Whether or not you sleep with her, it will SEMM like it's ended, but just be patient... and do NOT accept Haer'Dalis nito your group if romancing Aerie
.
5)Purely down to caster level. You need to be at least 7th level to memorize 4th level spells such as Lesser Restoration - if you can't meet this, has she been level-drained?

heh thanx all, now i am currently doing the quest where i need to save someone(forgot name). i took this quest from TIRIS in trademeet when he said that his friend is captured.

Ok so i freed the guy/gal and what do i do now??Firkraj has turned into dragon,must i kill him??(seems impossible to me) or should i just leave the area.

And also do u guys use the Script thing where u can choose how your characters will react??Druid Dfensive/offensive and all those stuff?

1) you can take on the Red Dragon anytime you think your party (or you, if solo) is ready for him, some ppl prefer to tackle him after Chp 6, I personally prefer to finish him off right after rescuing the child (and rest first, of course).

2) I never use the scripts since I recall Edwin casting magic missiles at a stone golem.... *sign*
