After completing the game again in the past couple of days, the thought of a Vampire Boogre suddenly occured to me. With the Boogre's sluggish movement and the "declining battle ability" of the Vampire, I think that along with a entire inventory of cursed weapons and 0 for all my attributes will make an interesting game to say the least. I also have two questions...

First is it possible? (I've never had any of my character's stay a Boogre)

and Second has anyone ever tried the Boogre Vampire combo?

It's definitely possible... and I'm sure Willow will buy you a drink at the Boogre Bar if you join her as one of the folks who completes the game as a Boogre [img]graemlins/drinkup.gif[/img]

As for a Boogre Vampire... I don't remember that coming up before, but I could certainly be wrong. Sounds like a challenging way to play, especially with all zero stats, all cursed items... say, why not just turn off the electricity and play in the dark? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

And to follow up on Moiraine Sedai's thoughts from the other thread, name another game that has folks willing to make it this difficult to play [img]smile.gif[/img] Okay, I'm sure more are going to come out of the shadows, but still...

Staying as a boogre is very possible to do. As is becoming a vampire with a boogre since vampirism is a trait not a species. Try it our, but don't be too surprised if it's very difficult. Completing a game with a single boogre is a hard task too. [img]smile.gif[/img] It's not that amusing when piranhas have an easy time killing you off.

I tried that and played some time....

bsftcs wanted long ago me to get saved game here, where is created boogre-vampire character....

Before I uploaded that into my homepage, I have to format my hard drive
And i dind't have backup's from saved games...

But it's possible.

I get that idea first allmost a year ago, then I studied more about vampirism...

It worked well, cause you have so plenty of hitpoints!
If you want, it takes me 3-4 days to get you boogre-vampire character and I could put that save into my homepages....

Just let me know...

Hmmm...it sounds like you have to be a very fast runner to pull off that combo...I'll tell you all how it goes if I ever get the chance.

BTW Thanx Olli, but W&W has some of the largest save files...I'm on a 56k and it's going to take me a long time to download a 2mb save file...

I hope you will make your saved game character a pixie rogue boogre vampire as I proposed earlier, Olli.

I think a PRBV would have to be hacked... for maximum fun, that is. Would you really want to start with several levels underway? Hmmm... maybe it's time for an exercise in hacking...

Techically it wouldn't have to be hacked. Well if you start from scratch it would have to be hacked. But what you can do is to start of a party, complete the crypt and pass through to Ishad N'ha. Then return to valeia, create your pixie and return to Ishad N'ha (adding the pixie to the party of course. Create a portal outside the prison and then you enter the Boogre prison, get boogrified and teleport out of there. You then have a level 1 boogre rogue. [img]smile.gif[/img] I don't know what happens if you revert the game there... Perhaps you stay a boogr perhaps not. Has anyone ever tested that?
