You haven't called me crazy yet, cmon, get your lips-a flappin. Ok, thats better.
Ok, I'm playing multi-player. I've been playing Black Isle games for quite the while now and have become very good. I decided to give myself a challenge, get through Baldur's Gate 2 with ONLY one, TRUE-classed character at all times. I choose an archer, they seem most adaptable. Well here are some of the problems I've come across and wonder if anyone has any good ideas on how to help.
Traps: I'm neither a mage nor a thief so I can't see them and so far (especially while going through Irenicus' Dungeon) they have dished out more damage than the monsters (not including seven vales). Anyone have any useful suggestions?
Lockpicking: My archer has a lot of strength making it quite adept at breaking open chests or doors, yet every once in a while she fails to be able to, I can't use scrolls, are there any other ways other than smashing for an archer (fighter) to open a door/chest?
Charming: I went up and began to fight the powerful enemies on level two of the seven vales, I'm only level 9 and being on the usual difficulty is making it quite hard to succeed. I am able to attack only one at a time by utilizing the stairs but that darn Pooky creature (mephit familiar) is really adept at casting dire charm. If my main char, or really only char, gets charmed it's just like I die and I have to load. Does anyone know of any items near the begining that would be useful in defending against this type of attack?
Lastly, you need not worry if I am unable to continue at some later date. If forced, I can always export this archer into some other game someday later. Thanks for you help, ahead of time.
