*Smacking head against crappy monitor screen.... for that ridiclous & stupid post about EoU ...*

*Annatar preparing for severe torturement from Kaltia, for being rude and mean to her [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/whipitgood.gif[/img] *

And indeed Xen, your Sorcerer really did it all by himself... with the rest of the Undead legion and some minor Deitý's you summoned, only to be used as plain cannon fodder [img]graemlins/shooter18.gif[/img] .

But you as director of the swarming mob... do deserve some credit [img]smile.gif[/img]

Actually; your solo sorcerer did need help at every twist and turn, Xen, judging from the enormous amount of "Need help with Improved yadiyada" posts you made. Don't be too proud of yourself..

Well done Xen, even if you did have to post for advice every few days. Now try soloing something less user-friendly than a sorcerer. At the moment, I'm soloing a Beastmaster.

EDIT: Kaltia was referring to Indemaijinj
Hmmm, I thought the summoning limit was five?

Better yet, try soloing something without reloads. I'm doing an F/T/M right now on insane with the full array of weimer mods. It's mighty frustrating when the slightest slip-up or stroke of bad luck forces you to start anew. Just this evening I was killed by a Shadow in the Circus Tent who drained my STR to zero after having cast Ray of Enfeeblement on me not much you can do about it. But it also makes the game more exciting, reminds me quite a bit about Diablo II Hardcore mode.

What the game says is partially true. You can solo the game. However, you will have an easier time if you have a thief to disarm traps and pick locks, fighter classes who can wear items that mages can't, bards for lore, clerics/druids for healing spells, etc.

You also miss out on experience without other NPCs, but since you don't having them snorking it up, well, no real need to worry about that, eh?

It IS a big achievement to solo BG2, and I'd never dream of doing it. Congrats. [img]smile.gif[/img]
