Throughout my stay here and at the BlackIsle Forum, I noted there were some people who complained about Aerie, and I like Aerie, their main complaint was that Aerie had very little Hp, and I thought to myself, "OMG, WTH are these guys talking about? There's so much equipment in the game to boost Hp!"

Soooo, I decided to do something, I decided to prove a point, I decided...

*drum roll*

...to try to solo with Aerie.

At the creation screen however, I came across a problem, they did not allow Elf Cleric/Mages.



So I had to compromised and used Half-Elf instead, unfortunately, this meant my Aerie had 15 more Hp than the real Aerie.

Also, as most will know, all NPC mages can cast Lvl 9 spells even if they have less than 18 Int... therefore, I had to simulate this too and give my Aerie 18 Int so that she too can memorise Lvl 9 spells. It won't affect anything, just makes her closer to the real one.

All in all, the only thing that made me unhappy was the inability to choose the Elf race for her.

Anyhoo, she's in Act2 now. She has a Familiar and wears a Helm of Balduran so she has 17+ more Hp now.

Here's a screenshot where Aerie meets Aerie.

Any comments?

Had a lot of fun fighting the Werewolfs in the Circus. I had no Detect Illusion, but with Mirror Image, Blur, Stoneskin and Barkskin, Aerie had -3 AC. She kicked ass with Magic Missile and Melf's Minute Meteors.

You should make one of the two Aerie's in your pic. Chaotic evil, and that would be her evil twin sister!

You could try altering Aerie's profile with Shadowkeeper to be an elf... although who knows what bugs that might cause?
