Mage Spell tables in error?

Micah Foehammer · 11-11-2002, 01:15 PM

Anyone else notice that NWN spell tables for the mages in the back of the manual appear to be in error? Specifically for the progression BEYOND 4 spells of any level (11th level I think but not sure)? I've tried unequipping all of the intelligence altering items on the character and i keep coming up with the same results. 4 appears to be the maximum number of spells for any level (without adjustment for bonus spells for high intelligence as shown on page 72). In fact, I believe that the CORRECT progression for mage spells is actually the one the BlackIsle has in their IWD2 manual. lol

Or is my mage character somehow corrupted?

Wouldn't be the first time. Bioware is better with games than with manuals, methinks. The BG2 manual was notorious too for it's ill-portrayed spell effects.

FDL

I should have remembered that (a) Manuals ALWAYS have bugs, (b) when in doubt refer to rule (a).

I think the "readme" files in the upgrades address this and have the correct tables in them.
