First goal completed.

My main character survived throughout SoA, and noone got splattered when they died. Took alot of patience and preparations. Sometimes, I was surprised how quickly I could kill the monsters. For example in underdark when I was facing undead knights. They died in 2 rounds, and I remember I used to have problems with these. Twisted runes was also pretty easy. The mage took a while to kill though. Toughest fight in the game must have been the dragon in Suldanesselar. I think three died in that fight. My cleric/illusionist kept safe distance. In the end, magic missiles killed the dragon (as usual when I fight dragons). Otherwise, I had some tough fights in the beginning when I was collecting items. Come to think of it, the fight for Kelsey was very tough. Noone died, but it was close. Totally invaded by monsters, and then the Githyankis joined. Had to flee, summoned a few monsters to prevent everyone from following.

It is pretty nice to have a few characters with 100+ fire resistance tanking and then throwing fireballs or sunrays on them. In ToB, Kelsey can cast project image and firebreath and timestop. A little cheesy, but obviously the makers of the game wanted it this way.

I have to watch out for my Kensai(lvl 17)/Thief(lvl 14) now. Very weak character, but I knew she would be. Soon it will all end. My assassin(lvl 21)/Fighter(lvl 11) is also pretty weak, because she only has 75 hit points. No good tanking, so I put 2 proficiency points in shortbow, 5 in katanas, so she will at least be decent with bow. The Barbarian is the best tank I've ever had. Of course, I use Jaheira mostly for distraction (with ironskin), but sometimes she must flee, and barb can handle himself pretty good.

By the way, I was wondering. Why is my cleric/illusionist neutral evil all of a sudden (from neutral good)? I didn't kill anyone innocent. In hell, I did let one of my companion die and I did fight for the blackrazor. ?
