Hi,
nice to see you [img]smile.gif[/img] . After some nice playing time I have some questions.

1.How can I protect my fighter against so called 'vorpal' hit made by some high lvl demons what destroys my fighter permanently (I can not return him to life) ?

2.How is it posiible Beholder like creature to target me when I'm out of his sight? I'm setting my sorcerer far from it (two screens) because I wanna keep my protection spells for some reason and because the beholder like creatures just love to shoot against my PC (antimagic ray, death ray or whatsoever...).

3.There are moments, during the fight, when my fighters are hitting nothing but air and after a few seconds (usually after some party member death) they begin to hit the enemy like never before (corresponding to their lvl - 28). Don't laugh at me - the enemy have no protections and I'm hitting them with weapons what do not cause penalties to their AC or THACO or speed. Why is that ? Is there some way to see who and what is throwing like in NWN forexample ?

I have no mods installed except ToB.

Thanks and happy playing [img]smile.gif[/img]

1-You can`t...
2-Becuase this is Area affect spell-someone clarify this plese?
3-Don`t know...


BTW you could post this in your topic in ToB forum ou know

1. Death Ward ( cleric spell ) generally works against Vorpal hits, I'm not sure if Spell Immunity: Necromancy or the like works too though, it might.

2. AI thing, the beholders sometimes do this .. irritating but true. I think it happens when they've already noticed/attacked you and are still in attack-mode,.. although they might not be able to see you they still attack.

3. Yup, just go to options and click enable combat rolls and extra combat information [img]smile.gif[/img]

Thanks. I'll try to protect against 'vorpal' hit.
About the rolls - hm, how could I miss such an options - perhaps the many beers [img]smile.gif[/img] .
About the beholder thing:
The battle starts. He saw me. I saw him. He started casting on me. I started to run away from him. I was far enough thats why he couldn't target me. Then he begin to target s.o. else - my fighters. I was out of the battle - I mean my PC. When he was near dead I suddenly saw in the log "Beholder": Dead (or deth) ray: "My PC". His shot passed the two screens and it hit my PC ?! He has casted his spell without seeing me (my PC).

Yup I know .. It basically just happens sometimes. I was just guessing at what causes it, but its definetly something that's not supposed to happen.
Cant really help, just sympathize [img]smile.gif[/img]
