Thinking about playing BG2 again - need tips on mods

Originally posted by SixOfSpades: As nobody has mentioned it yet, I'm going to jump in on behalf of aVENGER's "Rogue Rebalancing" MOD. I don't have the link to it here, but it can be found through the link on Weimer's page that has a list of all known WeiDU MODs. Rogue Rebalancing does a lot of cool stuff, both on the powergaming (Bards don't suck quite so much) and roleplaying (Bounty Hunters can choose the Tracking HLA) sides. All Rogue classes and kits get a little stronger, which helps them keep up with the Warriors and Wizards, and the MOD also adds a new store that brings back a lot of the BG1 items that didn't make it into BG2 (Spider's Bane, Kiel's Buckler, etc.), as well as some all-new items including (wonder of wonders) some good Bucklers.

Do you have a link/address for that mod? I've heard of it, but have not actually checked it out. Considering that I am probably going to play a fighter/thief next game, it wouldn't hurt to check it out.

Doesn't the Improved North Forest include Small Teeth Pass? If so, it would not be in tune with Chap6, and not even in tune with ToB.

As an aside, I think various folks are working on the Valygar and Edwin romance mods, too.

I really dont see a connection here... [img]graemlins/beigesmilewinkgrin.gif[/img]

No....if Improved STP is linked with anything, it would be the Improved Dragons, not Improved North Forest, IIRC. (Have you tried tangling with Improved Adalon yet? Here, have a hunk of gouda!)
