Thanks, Indemaijinj - noted. However, I assume this is valid for all summons, right? So the problem isn't Totemic Druid-specific, rather than being Charm spells and Summons related.

I just read your thread and frankly... you scare me. No, seriously congradulations. Good luck with your no reload party.

THIS IS NOT FUNNY!!!!!!! after reading this post among others, decided to try a F/M/T solo/insane/tactics etc. etc., you know the drill. im not quite ready for a no-reload game yet(only played tactics/ascension once), and im having quite enough *fun* with a regular solo. the thing is, i finally got past improved otyugh(god bless you Rataxes

), but now the combat wont go off! no quick-saving or resting [img]graemlins/crying.gif[/img] !!! oh well, i quess ill do it again then...it wasnt that hard

edit: YES!! apparently the combat mode doesnt go off before killing the sewage eater. man, this is much more satisfying than regular gameplay...

I wonder if a solo no-reload generic fighter is possible? Or MONK?

I think no or almost immposible,becuase a Monk or generic fighter cannot protect so much

Then you should strive in trying to be as magically immune as possible. Physical damage can be taken (or bypassed because you're able to kill most of the physical relying opponents) because of your high amount of HP. Magic users? Just a matter of waiting before their spells have been exhausted.

A solo no reloads Monks might be possible. Reaching levels 15-16 will be hell, though.

I'm more skeptical as for the Fighter's chances of doing it... but perhaps it's because I was severely relying on Magic Resistance in my game. It's a slim chance, at best.

Xen · 06-20-2003, 06:06 AM

Yeah but Mages,will be protected from Magical Weapons and have Stoneskins on(Tacitcs) would be tough

Zuvio · 06-20-2003, 07:58 AM

Yeah, no-reload with a fighter is a rather futile attempt. Even solo fighter on insane is hard!

LOL, go for it!

It's not that I don't want to play BG1! Far from it! The problem is that BG1 is *extremely* rare here, and I'm not interested in a pirate-copy. On-line purchasing might be an option... I'll look into it once I'm over with BG2.

It's definately worth a go. The concept of going back to using spells such as grease and colour spray after having time stop and IA is quite amusing, but I enjoy the challenge of low powered classes. I think Amazon will ship to Israel, and they definately have BG1 and ToTSC as a double pack in stock.

Oh, right, Cleric/Mage - no Hrothgar. With it, you could obtain 25, if I'm doing the calculations correctly.

Yes, I forgot about that little extra point you can pick up, although I'm planning on staying "good", and obtaining 25 requires a little evil intervention

How about a no reload straight classed kensai

. Might have to try this one (since I've soloed a Kensai before on insane with all the improved encounters so it's not impossible [img]tongue.gif[/img] ). Might try this when I've taken my Cleric/Mage right through the saga.
