Too Early For Watchers Keep?

Lavindathar · 06-26-2005, 06:09 AM

I'm currently on Chapter 2 of BG, and was wondering whether I stand a chance of completing watchers keep now.

I've done every quest possible, before giving Gaelean the money (I like to play that way), and have a decent setup.

I'm just playing through the Windspear Hills atm, and then I've only got Trademeet to do.

My party levels are 11, 13, 12, 14/7, 15, 10/11

Can I make it?

I reckon you'd probably have a hard time with that, especially the Imprisioned One. I'd say average level about 14-15. Its a bit hard to say whats in your party?

My current party is :

Charname : Cavalier (12)
Mazzy : 13
Keldorn : 12
Anomen : 14/7
Yoshimo : 15
Aerie : 10/11

You can do the first 3 levels I think. The deeper levels will need some serious firepower though.

I agree with Elfbane. The first level you could definitely handle.

Cheers guys, I reckon before I give Boyle the money, most of my characters will have gained another two levels, so I'll probably get it done in Chapter 2.

If you try talking to Odren and gang, they'll let you know if you don't have enough experience and suggest you come back when you've gained more.

I've gotten through the first level running 10-12 level characters, and it was a bear. I lost a couple charachers (Aerie and someone else) until I retreated into the kitchen and the Golem couldnt make it so pummeled him, retreated when I was seriously hurt, healed, and attacked him again and so on and so on until he was dead.

You should be good for at least the first two or three levels, the second one (the labs) isn't too bad, just a lot of back and forth to set the fans and doors right to make it out.

2 holds the nasty chromatic demon though, that guy is a pain to get rid of.

Kyrvias · 07-14-2005, 05:42 PM

nasty thing the chromatic demon is... very nasty for a lowish level party.

I'd wait until the tail end of Ch. 3. That way, you've got just a little more experience from dealing with the vampires, maybe an extra level or two for you.
