Solo barbarian BG2 and Tactics

I add to Dundee's list (for modded BG2) :

- Spells from the imp.Undeads (Tactics).Even a simple skeleton can target the improved invisible (partially visible) with his spells.

- Spell Sequencers,Triggers from various Mages can target the imp.invisible too. (though IIRC it's not possible in the unmodded game)


For the rest if the mage doesn't have True Sight he can't do anything.But even for mages with T.Sight you don't stand there waiting for their spells to target you.
A fighter can resist a lot of damage and only spells like Maze or Imprisonment can be deadly.Also I always try to disrupt the enemies spellcasting and even when it's not possible there are always alternative tactics like drinking a potion of invisibility just before the mage casts Timestop f.e. .Not even his True Sight can do anything with the time stopped.

And one very important thing I forgot to add.
During my fighter's solo and especially in the difficult battles the Pause button and my Inventory micromanagement have saved me many times.And when I say pause I mean manually (spacebar) the other one is too slow sometimes

Yes, just like in the Matrix. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

When an enemy casts a Sequencer of Flame Arrows x3, you pause the game and whip out the Shield of Reflection. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
