@LennonCook - I DO get all the quests immediately, I was just talking about the order of completion. And I don't know why you'd say that the Unseeing Eye Quest was hard. The only thing worth fighting there are the beholders, and one person equipped with a semi-good weapon and the shield of balduran is invincible. Of course, if you don't have ToB or the merchants pack, that makes everything MUCH harder... but I'm just speaking of what I know. All the quest maintenance and smaller quests were left out on my list because they aren't of very high importance.

I also believe that the dragons (especially the Shadow Dragon) are very easy to beat. Cast Magic Resistance on it, then Web two or three times, and blast away with fireball after fireball. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Want it harder? check this:
http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~weimer/bgate/ and download the Solaufein mod.

And don't use the shield of balduran (hard but it's possible)

Oh, I'll wager the Shield of Balduran won't matter once the Sola mod is in.. It makes beholders smarter and they avoid the person with the Shield and shoot other people, or just move in for bites.

The Solau mod gave me incredible bugs the first time I used it. I had to completely reinstall Baldur's Gate II. I dunno why. Got the Kelsey, Tashia, Valen, improved Ilasera and Gromnir mods, and the improved thief stronghold installed. Any help?

Oh, the errors consisted of weird conversation looping primarily in Sundalessar and the underdark. At one point, I had 3 Pherae's showing up on my screen =\

I know that the Sola mod as well as the Ascension (sic) and TDD mods can conflict with other mods as well as amongst themselves..

Dundee Slaytern · 07-31-2002, 03:07 AM

Get the latest versions. I have both the Sola mod and Acension mod, and I love how the game is trying its best to kick my a**!
