I know thats why I have +2 bullets for all my sling's. I figure it must be +3 since all my +2 weapons aren't doing so hot. I think I will go do the trademeet quest then Nalia's. Maybe I might scavenge some +3 weapons. I know Nalia's quest you get the awsome Flail of the Ages. (I think thats what it's called.) It's +3 if my memory serves correct.

If they hit at all then they should be fine. If they only hit occasionaly its the NPC's THACO

Yes. Especially Minsc and Anomen. You can try imp. hasting Jaheira as well, but if you find that the spell on the tanks doesn't last long enough, I'd save the third IH for one of them, rather than Jaheira. Definitely take down one wolfere at a time. See if you can block the other one with summons, so that you don't get torn to shreds. I wouldn't even bother with the dire wolves until you've killed the GWs.

Do you have Melf's Minute Meteors?

Oh, and - if you couldn't ask this kind of "stupid" question here, this forum would suck.

Yes I have Melf's Minute Meteors. I use them all the time with Aradia and Aerie. Oh and the dire wolfs are already dead. Argh now I just want to go back and kick butt because now Naomen is giving me crap for not saving the child. Is it bad to get pissed at a CGI person?? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

It's a relatively well-known bug that the Greater Wolfweres you mention can Regenerate so fast as to be practically unkillable. I've never had this bug myself, but from what I hear, it's caused by Reloading the area several times: For some reason, each Reload tells the Wolfweres to regenerate, which means that multiple Reloads makes their Regeneration rates overlap, and cumulative Regeneration is a very tough nut to crack. I don't know how to fix this bug in-game, but it was my understanding that BaldurDash prevented it.

Solutions:
1) Ctrl-Y
2) Slowing them does indeed reduce their Regeneration rate, but you'll probably need to lower their Magic Resistance and perhaps their Saving Throws first.
3) Lots and lots of damage, all applied VERY quickly, during a single round if possible. Ways to do this might include Improved Hasting your best Warriors (Minsc, Jaheira, and Anomen, in that order) and have them drink STR potions. Supplement this with some very fast high-damage spells (a Spell Sequencer filled with 3 Flame Arrows is excellent) and probably a Backstab from Yoshimo.
4) Do the de'Arnise Keep first. Go back to the Copper Coronet and talk to Nalia.
5) Rearrange your party. Since you say you're already capable of Level 6 spells, you've probably already got too much invested in your current party members to want to go switching them out now, but in my opinion, a party with only 1.75 Warriors is really lacking in brawling power.

[MuffinGirl]

Well the man is getting on my nerves! Every single time he askes Aradia a question I answer as best I can, he snaps and says leave him alone I am so like WTF?? [img]tongue.gif[/img] Now it's time for him to get tested. Argh.

Six of Spades thatks for all the info. I will try all suggestions and hope one works out!

If they only hit occasionaly its the NPC's THACO [/QUOTE]If a weapon's enchantment is not high enough, when the weapon "hits", you will get a "weapon ineffective" message in the message window. And perhaps some related comment from the character. (IIRC, Nalia says "Something's wrong here" when she gets a weapon ineffective.)

[MuffinGirl]

I've only gotten that a few time and never with the Wolfweres. I wouldn't know about the sounds as I have no speakers.

[Thrain]

Annoyman *shudder* if only he weren't the only good cleric to send into battle without many buffs.

try clearing the cache. also, sequence some acid arrows together with your conjurer and aerie. that will certainly slow them down. hold monster and slow will also help.
