However, I don't see the need to make Mr. K or the Twisted Runies any more difficult than they already are, because they ARE the toughest fights in the game if you don't cheese, and they can be beaten without it! Same with illithid, beholders, etc. I also chose not to install any of the extra opponents, the toughest random spawns, or the kits. Whatever floats their boat, I guess. Not like there's an Ironworks Police Force to monitor everyone's playtime or anything. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Sure they are hard but there is (almost) always a way to beat them. Of course it requires a lot of banging-my-head-into-the-wall. Or take Pontifex for example. He is one little tough opponent.

Pirengle, I really agree with what you said, and my point exactly = one can pick and choose the more "appropriate" components of the tactics (don't have to install the whole mod).
one thing though...ToB related spoiler, . . . . . . . . if playing SoA with ToB installed, as early as Ch. 6, some characters would be getting HLAs, and since HLAs are legit, and shouldn't be counted as "cheese" (of course we can say, using HLAs in SoA is cheesy ^_*); anyway, with HLAs, some of the most difficult battles in SoA become quite easy, some too easy. for example, once Jaheira was able to summon fallen Deva when we went in the twisted rune, and that (I agree) one of the most difficult battles in SoA became unbelievably easy (with Fallen Deva, my party became "unfairly tough" for the twisted rune folks it seems~~). In this case, an improved version might make it again a tough fight, or we can always force ourselves not to use HLAs in SoA^_^
