I'm in chapter 3. I wanted to clear out the entire bottom of map first. I'm on my way to the bandit camp. Will the story move on after I waste them? On my map, it shows Durlags Tower. When should I do that? Will the story bring me to the Cloakwood area and back to Candlekeep? My party is pretty high level and powerfull ( only four of us ), when should I get TOSC, after I reach the XP max? I know this is a lot. I love this game. Thanks in advance.

P. S. - In my party, I have 3 guys I made myself. Will I be able to move them up to TOSC + BG2 together?

Baruk Khazad! Khazad Aimenu! The axes of the dwarves! The dwarves are upon you!

The bandit camp will move the story along, but it will still be ahwile before you return to candle keep, you might want to beef up just alittle bit more before starting ToSC, I waited till I could enter Baldurs gate, and for Durlogs tower wait till you do the quests in TOSC, but thats my opinion.

Yeah - don't go to Durlag's yet, it's really tough! Personally I didn't go there till just before confronting Sarevok at the endgame, although I did the other Sword Coast quests earlier.

I don't think you'll have any problem with self-made characters in TOTSC - but I think only your main player character can be imported into BG2.

Thanks. I figure when I reach the XP cap, that would be the time to get TOSC. Because my party is only four people, XP is coming fast, I'm close now. Look out bandits, here I come!
