I've recently restarted IWD2 after having been away from the game for a year or so, but I seem to notice there being less enemies in my current run-through than I remember from before. Example: I've just killed Sherincal at the entrance to the Ice Temple, and with her were only one barbarian warrior, one soarsmen, one barbarian shaman, two Aurilite postulants and a stormsister, whereas my memory tells me that, apart from the shaman, the postulants and the stormsister there should have been a small tribe of barbarians and at least two or three soarsmen.
Now my question is, am I really facing too few enemies, or are the numbers I mentioned about right for a party of six of level 7-8 and am I mixing up the number of baddies with those from my old solo-games? |

The game is auto-balancing.

I know that. [img]smile.gif[/img] It's just that I distinctly remember fighting that particular battle with a six-character party with there being a lot more barbarians.
But it's indeed probably just my faulty memory. Feh, I'm gonna go back to soloing, the game seems just a bit too easy like this... |

The tough side of playing a full party is situations where your party is a. split up, or b. you only have one guy. For example, long, drawn out siege fights will tend to split your forces. Also, the eight monastery chambers can pose a problem to a party of 6, especially the last one.
