In the beging of irincus dungeon. it takes like 10 minutes to do the sword of chaos quest. But i found a way to cut the time in half. After you get the elemental figure. go to the dyrad 9 the one in bottom felt of the three. Save and pickpoket her. then go to the djoin and say that youll do the quest. then talk to him again. Instant time saver

Ah, smart... And I think it'a not really messing up your game, since the quest seems to depend on achieving the item, and not necessarily forcing you to undergo the entire conversation. Very good timesaver indeed!
...At least, as long as the pickpocket doesn't fail, of course...

Alternative ways... ...

Kill the Dyrads, get the genie's bottle, bring their acrons to their queen to make her hostile so that you can kill her too.

That's sick!

Less than if you do the good path I suppose, but it was fun fighting her, her bears and two other Dyrads. I only found out about this because I was playing an Evil party.

Hmm, I never played a true evil party before... Could you name a few other very evil acts during that game?

Unfortunately, the game has very few evil paths.

Game Spoilers

Poison the Druid Grove: Heh, I loved the tones and dialogues of the Druids when they realised I poisoned the sacred spring. I laughed for a long time because of those.

Copper Coronet: Betrayed Hendak the slave to the owner of the Copper Coronet.

Windspear Hills: Murdered the old man and gave his deeds to Firkragg, then murdered Firkragg for fun.

Work for Bodhi: Assassination, slaughter, sabotage, etc... standard adventurer stuff.

Nine Hells: Doing all the evil paths would be ideal, but I did some good paths too, because the rewards were better.

Talk smack with the authorities in Amn: Xp galore, and the Full Plate Armours you get to sell will make you rich.

Drow City: Give the real eggs to the ambitious female drow, you will end up fighting her, the Lesser Lord Demon, the entire Drow City and the Silver Dragon to boot. Make sure you have +5 enchanted weapons to defeat the demon.

Non-game related evil paths: Killed Nalia's aunt, her guards, the whole of Amn, two apprentices( I wanted the Ring of Wizardry), etc... ...

------------------
If not a Sorcerer casting total oblivion, then a Cavalier meting out justice. Otherwise, I think I will just be a Blade and torture my enemies with, "My Heart Will Go On".

Platinium Sorcerer of ALSB, Aerie Loving Sacred Band! She's MeowRrrr, and more!
