******************

 

Fourth version, gets earlier EWS and EP, to help AB and dmg output earlier. Gives up 18th Shifter level which increases DCs on many shifted forms abilities. A minor tweak.

I gave all the versions the possibility to cast spells, buffs are always nice (and healing too helps a lot the finances at lower lvls ), raised INT to 13 for access to IKD, got the dev crit feats early on, maxed out spellcraft, put in called shot.

 

With a lucky bull's STR roll plus blood frenzy the AB in lizard form becomes 47, which is decent. Gear and potions (bless, aid) can improve it slightly further.

I was excited about this game when I got my first own computer...then Sacred came out at bout that time and never really got into nwn. I know it's community is supposed to be fantastic though, and my cousin was hooked on nwn for years.

 

 

gogo

[pOst TenEbrAs luX 0]

I still play a bit, I used to mod a bit myself for a while. Love the game, wish I had more time(never enough time for anything anymore )

anymore it takes me 6 months to finish a game, where it used to take me 3 days to a week.

 

Do you play on a dedicated server?

I had played on and off,

on one that was dedicated to Robert Jordan's wheel of time, Great stuff.

 

really enjoyed the builds, love that type of stuff, used to have 40 or so builds for GW, always up for NWN builds,

will have to brush off the disc and fire up the game to try them out.

[Yaga 1]

I want BG3 ..

[Katran 0]

I want BG3 ..

 

Sadly that will never happen. At list when I finished BG2 I had a wife a baby and the most important thing I was a god.

But I think it is about time that we get a noter game like it. I dont care what they call it but it needs to have that game play style. I love Sacred type of games but when you lead a team of people is a hole new level the amount of skill that it took for BG or Ice wind dale was out of this world the way you could create battle tactics was an matched and the inter game character interaction and small story development in BG was the best all all time. Those that havnt played BG are blessed of not living with the sadness that you and I have Yaga of never being made a noter BG game.

[Epox 2]

I got all bg and iwd games and nwn , except nwn2 they kinda lost the game style thier imo sadly

[Csaszar 2]

Hi

 

Nice to see other BG and Nwn fans!

 

IMHO Nwn1 easily beats Nwn2 - well except graphics

 

Do you know theese? Mirent Tusk or Tornado of Souls? Best PWs I ever tried.

[Epox 2]

no I don't but think when I reboot sunday ill try em out hehe with my builds up thier

 

NwN2 has compied wow playstyle and that has made it 0/10 score for me

Edited October 10, 2007 by Epox

[Ankhanu 0]

I love NWN; I should install it on this system so I can play (I installed it on our new computer, but it's 400km away ). Nice builds there.

 

I never really tried the online component though, just the stories.

[Epox 2]

okay im gonna play this game jst playing single player atm hehe well if somebody can give me a ip to a good mp server im in

[Epox 2]

im just gonna install all my agmes from bg series to icewind series to nwn and nwn2 series I miss the good old clasics the new ones are to grafical for my liking

[gogoblender 3,070]

I miss the good old clasics the new ones are to grafical for my liking

 

 

Plus...they need the most monstrous graphics cards... kaching kaching

 

 

gogo

[Epox 2]

indeed, I like a good rpg game with a good history dont need bling bling

 

gonna make my mini build in mp and rule the cavrens muhaha
