Multiclass and strongholds

Lharae · 09-26-2002, 10:36 PM

If I have a multiclass fighter/mage, which stronghold can he get? Is it which ever one he completes the quest for first?

It seems to be a fairly unknown subject, but for my multiclass fighter-mage and fighter-thief, if I got the thief or mage stronghold before De'Arnise, I could keep them both, but not if I got them after D'Arnise...very odd. I don't know if this would apply in backwards order from class list. For example, maybe the game checks your multiclass for stronghold. If the first one (ie Fighter) isn't filled, it doesn't continue checking. Just a thought!

its definitely the fighter's stronghold... whatever your multi-classed with.

A bug you can exploit to get both:
Do De'Aranase first- tell Nalia that you`ll think about it, then go get the Planar Sphere to get the Mage Stronghold, and go back to Nalia, and accept the Fighter Stronghold. QEF [img]smile.gif[/img]

If you dont want to cheat using Lennon's way, then you can choose which of the strongholds you can get.
When dualled, you can only get the Stronghold for your original class.
When multied, then you can choose between the two/three, but you can only choose one.

Actually, that's not quite right for dualed characters, Sir Exxon. I've had a dualed Fighter-Thief and can get either stronghold (Mae'vars or De'Arnise), whichever one I complete *first* and accept. Same goes for Fighter-Mage (De'Arnise or Planar Sphere), as I've tried that out, too. The multiclass bug about letting you get both, however, doesn't work.

I`m thinking that this all depends on different versions of the game (for different OSs, etc); because some people exploit bugs all the time that other people don`t get the opportunity should they wish to.
