actually they break the rules with more than one of the characters, mostly stuff like dualing when they shouldn't have or the like. but actually i think immy as a sorc. would be great idea, seeing as they don't put one in the game and it works with the fact that you pick up immy late and sorc are better more powerful quicker. Sounds like a good mod, although do we really need another sorc mod

Immy and Nal are both the same Level in my Party, 23rd level Mage. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well, beat this: My machine of Lum the Mad brushes my teeth for me!

Hey Attalus, I found out about the 100,000xp from a Walkthrough. So...after reading all the notes and giving the stat boosts to the appropriate party members, my Wizard Slayer/Thief started "playing around" with different combinations.

After gaining an extra 5%MR from the machine, he now has 94% Magic Resistance. This came in very handy when the Machine tried to Imprison me. It cast a dark bolt of energy and ...... NOTHING!!! It just bounced right off of me. I've also discovered that (apparantly through some bug), Cerek seems to be immune to Time Stop from enemies. The guardian lich and Demagorgon himself both casts Time Stop and Cerek was still able to "move around and attack" during the spell duration. Freaky.

Of course, none of the effects of his attacks actually took place until the Time Stop wore off, but it sure came in handy to be able to get a couple of free attacks myself.

Attalus · 02-02-2003, 11:58 AM

Hey, Cerek. I had heard that Demogorgon was immune to Time Stop, but I never heard before that a PC could be. Well done! My Pally is 80% Magic Resistant, but Time Sop still applies to him. Maybe a few more trips through the game...

I messed around with the machine a lot, to get potions. I never got exp. when I used it. 50% of the time, it would "rip a portion of my soul into another plane", but my clerics had a lot of restoration spells. 25% of the time, I would get a fireball or lightning bolt cast on me. the other 25%, I would get a potion.
