How many of you suffer from..... - Page 2

Heh... ...

Wands wise, I sell all except for Magic Missile, Monster Summoning, Cloudkill, Fire and one Ice Wand. Hmmmm... ... That means I only sell the Electricity one. Basically I use MM wands for weak battles, like against Muggers, Fire for the scorcher for non-savable hits in moderate fights and Cloudkill for Umber Hulks.

MS when out of summoning spells and lastly, the Ice wand for the Limited Wish Quest.

Scroll wise, I sell all Green scrolls except Protection against Undead. If all my mages have learnt that spell, I sell the scroll unless it is an attack scroll or special scroll like Stone to Flesh, Freedom, etc... ... Flame Arrows scroll stay, in case my mages run out of spells. I definately keep summoning spells too because I use summons a lot.

Potion wise, I do not sell them, I use them. Heh heh, sometimes I overkill though, on potions.

hehe, i currently have a BG1 game with one character carrying ONLY scrolls, one with ONLY wands and one with ONLY potions...i really should tidy up

In BG2 is just get scroll cases and keep as many scrolls as i can, there are at least two scrolls of time stop in the game, for example, that are incrredible helpful later on. (like taking out a black dragon with a lone mage, hehe)
potions i am guilty of hording, but i use wands up quite a lot, and they are rarer than in BG1

scrolls- I scribe 'em or sell 'em. Unless I'm planning on approaching a big fight... then I buy what I think I will need to cast quickly.

Potions- outside of healing, antidote, and elixer of health I sell them.

Wands- I still have them, never use them, don't know why.

GUILTY!!!

At one point I've had all my fighters lugging excess scrolls and potions and such!

And I've got these 'doomsday' spells in Nalia's scrollcase that just never come out! Doomsday never arrives!

Well, I finally am beating that.

SPOILER

In the battle where you massaquer the Thieves Guild (working for Bohdi), the final battle against the Thieves guild master and his mage buddy (very nasty fight) I had everyone cut, bleeding, confused, and running scared. Nalia was stunned, and standing right beside the two spellcasters, and fortunately they were ignoring her and trying to nail my fleeing characters as they beat it back across the bridge.

Then Nalia became unstunned.

With a look of absolute fury and hatred on her face, she whips open her scrollcase, and yanks out 'Summon Fiend'.

'Alright you (@!&%&#$(&(%*@, I'm goin' NUCLEAR on yo *SS!' she hisses, summoning a right nasty demon right behind them and then running for it.

It was so pleasurable reading the battle progress, as the demon almost casually stunned them and wripped their innards out. Then he nicely unsummoned himself before even thinking about hunting the dungeon for us.

So my new motto is, 'use at least one potion every battle' and use a NUCLEAR spell every major battle.

Gavin.
