And pardon me. Pickpocketing ~somebody~ has become a standard thing to do for me every time I play SoA. So I kinda take the RotR for granted at the beginning of the game like the Ring of Regeneration. [ 05-22-2003, 01:06 AM: Message edited by: Dundee Slaytern ]

I agree that Jaheira sucks at melee, but just if she is the foremost tank. Make whatever foe that needs tanking busy with other chars and bring in Jaheira. Casting Ironskins will also improve her tanking skills. In fact, with Ironskins she becomes pretty tankish. Sometimes I used her as a decoy for enemy archers to provide my fighters safe passage to the melee range [img]smile.gif[/img] And she withstood it, without even dropping her Ironskins. That fact made me want to solo a druid sometime...
ADD]Valygar can be a reserver tank (covering your mages if something comes from behind) in lower levels. Thats all due to his poisoned katana, which is great for beginning, and its pretty much the case now [img]smile.gif[/img] [ 05-21-2003, 05:01 AM: Message edited by: TaSSaDaR ]

Jaheira sucks in melee? at the start maybe! but give her the Red Dragon Armour, a nice club and a certain pair of gauntlets that increase her STR to 19 (i forget which ones) and she kicks butt! True she's not as good as Anomen or my PC (Ranger), but she packs a punch.
I used to think she was a waste of space but after a time she becomes quite useful!

Heh, so did it happen in my case. Her Fire Elementals alone make her worth staying [img]smile.gif[/img] Nevermind the fact that she was my sweetheart last game...

[img]smile.gif[/img] Sitting in a tree... why not? Will have to practice it in the Real Life Realm someday with my present game girlfriend
![]() As for TaSSaDaR & Jaheira case... we were not sitting. And we were not kissing [img]smile.gif[/img] In fact, not only [img]smile.gif[/img]

Sorry for breaking your joke, here we had quite an other way to do the same thing (but it was still a song [img]smile.gif[/img] )
AFAIK being killed and reanimated breaks romance. As being petrified does. Or you just may have said something stupid to her. Heh, let us not discuss Jaheira romance (or any other) in the Tanar'ri slaying thread [img]smile.gif[/img]

I would consider all remarks about pickpocketable Rings to be spoilerish, since this is almost certainly Lynn's first game. Dundee (or other moderator), spoiler tags please?
It's reasonably safe to assume that Lynn's Fighter has good Tanking stats, Minsc can definitely Tank (he may have points in 2-handed weapons, but that doesn't prevent him from using a Shield if he wants to), and Valygar and Jaheira both have what it takes to Tank in this situation--THAC0 and Saving Throws. The Tanar'ri is only a formidable melee opponent if you've been Held.
