browsing through the manual ive seen some wierd things, one of which, climb walls???
what is this ability or is it just some wierd thing that mixes in with stealth abilities, and others

It's a legacy of the Pen and Paper dungeons and dragons game that Baldurs Gate is based on.

Climb walls is a skill not implemented in Baldurs Gate though, much like read languages... there is just no need.

Lazy manual makers left it in.

hey, is there an online manual which i could view or possibly download? my uncle bought the game and then his wife told him he was never allowed to play it again, after which he gave me the cd's [img]tongue.gif[/img] . please, i am at quite the dissadvantage lol.

<font color=cadetblue>In your BG2 folder, theres a pdf manual you can view.</font>

lol - i'm sure if i tried to play the game much when my wife was about the same would happen to me!

when you've read the manual six of spades' guide is very good to give you the 'bigger picture'

And for the fabeled Six'O'Spades' guide gohere.

<font color=cadetblue>Yeah, SoS's guide is excellently written and a good guide for both newbies and experts alike.</font>
