Solo Shapeshifter(/Fighter?)

[Pyrenk]

I can't seem to find the right class for me...I keep restarting the game...Chateau de Irenicus makes me want to throw my computer into the wall...

Anyway. I am using a Shapeshifter now (w/Weimer). Can you post any general suggestions (items to get, proficiencies, dual to fighter or not...)? I am very inexperienced with the Shapeshifter, and need some help. There's no rush, take your time...

Include in your proficiencies dual weapon wield, single weapon wield, dagger, and club. The werewolf's paw is considered to be a dagger for proficiency purposes. You'll want single wield for the AC and critical hit bonuses with the paw. The club proficiency should be used for Pitchwife, a +5 club that is fused from Blackblood and Gnasher - you'll have to d/l the Weimer Items Upgrade Mod to get this. You'll want this because there are some things the werewolf/greater werewolf paws can't hit - they are considered to be +2 and +3 respectively. Finally, you'll want the dual wield so you can use Pitchwife in your left hand and not have to revert to human form.

I wouldn't dual to fighter if I were you. The greater werewolf form is much more powerful (at least until ToB and the various HLAs). Give him Boots of Speed and the Amulet of Power and watch him cut through his enemies like a runaway buzzsaw.

To me, it sounds like you haven't heard about a great mod called Dungeon-Be-Gone.

No, I used that mod before. The problem is, it gives you 10k exp for completing Chateau Irenicus. Now, getting the acorns alone gives me 9,500. The Sword of Chaos gives me about 20k. When you factor in the golem stone, releiv, and the monsters you encounter (such as the vampire), it is considerably more. Not to mention that I get more gold. I do like the Bard calling Haer'Dalis a jackass, though [img]smile.gif[/img]

G'day RAPIDA
wellcome to ironworks
Just follow the underlined link from sir exxon and it will take you to instructions for some tried and tested mods. It will answer all your questions.
though i do not have this mod fitted myself i belive it creates a charicter who gives you options to skip the dungeon and begin the real adventures.

Good hunting!
