I'm close to reach x7 backstab cap. Is it good to dual to fighter then? I'm in 3rd chapter of shadows of amn now.
>>336249148
Shut up and dump the pics you post in every thread autist
>>336249421
Not so rude anon.
>>336249148
I wouldn't dual.
Get those delicious HLA thief abilities instead, like the time stop trap, assassinate and so on
>>336250002
I kinda wanted to get use any item so i can cast tenser rage from scrolls on myself and swing carsomyr
>>336250112
Well get that too. You can pick more than one, you get to choose when you level up.
>>336249148
> Is it good to dual to fighter then?
It is basically never good to dual at any time.
if you want a fighter/thief, take a non-human.
>>336250352
I disagree. Fighter dualled to cleric is a very strong option.
Is level 7/8 alright for Durlag's Tower in BG1?
Favorite party for BG2, provided that you create all characters yourself or edit the NPCs? For me, it's
-Inquisitor
-Cleric/Ranger
-Assassin
-Cleric/Mage multi
-Wild Mage
Last spot is either Berserker, or Blade.
>>336250494
Yes, that's pretty much the level cap without mods/EE
>>336250352
Depends, if f for some reason you want to play a general wizard or cleric, taking a few warrior/rogue don't make you lose much and give you more apr/hp
>>336250456
Multi ends up better
>>336250494
Yes
>>336250494
Absolutely ok. I did it on level 7 myself.
>>336250507
Patrician taste anon. Wild mages are so broken. With good chaos shields i was able you can use lvl 1 spells to spam 9 level spells.
>>336250602
It's EE i'm playing. Does that make a difference as far as my level is concerned?
>>336250680
Multi has less spells than dual. Dual can progress into cleric levels much futher. You end up with a one man army anyways. I love to solo with clerics
>>336250778
I know SoD expansion increases the level cap even further, not sure about just EE if you don't have it.
It has no effect on your current level, of course, only the maximum. Level 7-8 is enough in any version.
>>336250838
Do your spells/day increase above level 20?
I know in 3E the progression stopped and you never got more than 4 spells in the max level slot.
>>336250838
>Multi has less spells than dual.
Multi have better thaco, more apr, better hla and the spells they get are enough

You know, when you name your PC after an edgy character from a book series for edgy teens, it gives us a certain impression
why

Using Carsomyr seems like a waste if you're not a fighter/thief desu, also Dorn get a discount version.

Actually was about to start my first real BG1 playthrough.
What's the best starting race/class/build for someone who hates complex leveling systems and just wants to have fun without worrying about fucking multiclassing and shit?
>>336251721
He is a halfdrow. So i looked for drow names on internet and liked this one. Who is this edgy nalfein?
>>336251828
I already dual wield with katanas and short swords. ALso i have scimitar prof. SO its all gud.
>>336251962
Fighter berseker is the most simple and straightfoward class i think. I played fighter first time when i played BG years ago.
>>336251962
Multiclassing is simple, the XP is just split between your two classes. It's only dual classing that's more complicated.
Anyway, just pick whatever pure class and pump your main stat to 18. Can't go wrong with that.

There is only sarevok. You can get to the watcher's keep as location at any time throughout whole BG2. In ToB you just have to escape saradush.

Fucking christ, not only is there not a decent rendition of a tabletop RPG in a video game medium, but they couldn't get one of the most basic truths of the game right?
Assassins outside of 2e are evil. This is invariable, and a game that came out far after 3e was a construct managed to fuck this up
Decent faerunian video game when?
>>336257985
Maybe they realized that alignment restrictions for non-clerics is retarded?
>>336257985
I wanted to be neutral evil first, but then when ropleplaying my character was not that much evilin his choices. He is power hungry and aware of his achievable godhood, however there are still morals in him that gorion taught him.i plan to have his soul corrupted in hell
>>336249148
There's a mod that I've been really enjoying without having to do the whole shadow keeper business.
When you install it, it gives you options about how you want to change a character, you don't need to change their class or kit, if you don't want to
But the best part is, when you start the game, every character, in the special abilities menu, will have a spell to add or change their kit. So you don't have to manually change things for every single play through

You know that all of the IE games except IWD2 are 2E, right?
>>336257985
moron
>>336258507
Is there way to roll a completely new character, export it and use it as template for one of the NPCs? Something like completely overriding an NPC with a different one you made.
Even with shadow keeper, the difference between level 1 stats can be a pain to change manually, if you want to completely change someone's class.
>>336258507
Isn't the game easy enough without cheating though?
>>336257985
BG2 is is 2E you fuckwit and 3E came out only a few months prior.
>>336258114
Alignment restrictions? In a Role playing game? You're shitting me. Really?
>>336258338
This is slightly more satisfying.
>>336258560
Assassination, be it a good or bad target, is an intrinsically evil act. There's nothing good, nor honorable in killing an opponent unaware of your presence. In Faerun, the continent on Abeir-toril, the world in which this game takes place, all "Assassins," by class, are members, mentored by, or descendant of a member, of the Guild of Greyhawk. Even in 2e this was canon. The Assassins guild of Greyhawk is, lorewise, an Evil group. Regardless of the target, be they good or evil in alignment, assassinating a target is an act of Evil in Faerun
>>336258619
See above response
Also I was not aware of this
I find that hard to believe seeing that there are class rules in Baldurs gate, NWN, NWN2, etc that are directly based on 3/3.5e rules
>>336258698
Kill yourself.
>>336259207
fuck off retard
>>336258986
Not with difficulty mods.
Some people enjoy adding a ton of difficulty to the game and then using a powergamey party.
>>336258986
I play with SCS, plus I want to experiment with different kits without having to create custom parties.
>>336258958
Do you mean like changing a character's class, stats, and portrait completely?
>>336259207
>are members, mentored by, or descendant of a member, of the Guild of Greyhawk
So basically they copied the Assassin's Creed setting.
>>336259454
If by copied you mean wrote almost thirty years prior then yes.
>>336249148
You can't dual. Half elves can't dual.
Humans only.
>>336259656
I have BG2Tweaks so all races can dual and multiclass
>>336259207
But a Thief sneaking up on someone and backstabbing them, or an invisible wizard blowing up a horde of goblins, is totally cool? Honor is a Law/Chaos concept, not Good/Evil.
BG came out years before 3E, and NWN isn't even an IE game at all. How clueless are you?
>>336259408
Pretty much.
For example, suppose you wanted to change Imoen into a pure class mage because you already have a thief.
You can de-level her to level 1, but a level 1 thief will have different stats (saving throws, THAC0, weapon proficiencies) than a level 1 mage, so you still have to edit all of that by hand.
But generating a mage through the character creator and replacing the file that stores Imoen's stats would solve this. I just don't know how.
enhanced edition sucks play vanilla(with mods) or don't play at all
>>336259717
And you're fine with completely breaking the game?
Confirmed shit tier.
>>336259846
why would it completely break the game? it's just a minor change imo
>>336259717
also bgt tweaks only alters this in enhanced edition gtfo
what should I play to make things easier (and fun) in NWN? I remember trying to play some magic nigga and having a tough time starting out.
>>336259846
Because making a half-elf character dual instead of human will completely break the game, right?
>>336260029
Druid/shifters are fun since you can shapeshift into a bunch of shit and be tanky in fights.
>>336259739
Thieves, as far as their class-definition goes, aren't meant to use their combat abilities unless it's a life-or-death situation. Rogues as a class can retain any alignment because their sole purpose for existence is, you guessed it, stealing shit, not murderhoboing helpless NPC's
Killing goblins is like playing exterminator. They're seen as a pest, even to most of the Faerunian pantheon
I've touched these games slightly, and for no more than ten or so hours at a time. My original point stands, there's yet to be a video game to capture even the most surface nuances of their namesake
>>336259846
Just removed annoying class restrictions tha game had. Why can't i be a dwarf mage/thief if i want to roleplay one? Nothing more. Confirmed moron
>>336260119
Your original point doesn't stand because it was based on something completely false.
>>336260024
Because dual classing is better than multi classing, that's why non-humans cant do it with all the inherent buffs they have.
>>336260142
Did you ever think the game has those restrictions for a reason?
>>336260029
Cleric or druid.
Cleric is almost as good in melee as a fighter, even better with buffs and then you have CC and damage spells.
Druid has an animal companion that nearly as powerful as having an additional fighter party member. Pick the one with sneak attack (panther, I think)
Stay away from prestige classes and just play a pure class on your first playthrough, it can mess up things.
Cleric is defensive oriented, druid has very powerful offensive spells.
>>336259754
You should ask the modders in the beamdog forum. There's mods kind of like that, but they're premade
>>336260203
The only direct statement I made that could be considered true or false was "Assassins outside of 2e are evil. This is invariable."
I am not incorrect you fucking mouthbreather
>>336260290
just because dual class can achieve grandmastery? I'm curious to what are your reasons for considering dual class better than multi class I play the game with multi class grandmastery mod installed so I usually play multi class
>>336260614
>multi class grandmastery mod installed
World class shitter confirmed.
Dual class is better than multi cause you get the benefits of 2 classes with the xp progression of 1.
>>336260290
I don't understand why you care how other people play. I modified a few things, installed SCS and play on insane. Some people enjoy powergaming while having a much harder game. Gods.
>>336257985
Good thing the 3e games enforce alignment restrictions for assassins then while the 2e ones don't. KYS retard
>>336260750
That's not true. Multiclassing is dual classing but without one gimped class.
>>336260898
Not him but 3e assassins are a prestige class that act as a guild.
They are different from other incarnations of assassins.
>>336261030
No, multiclassing is 2 or 3 classes with the xp you get divided by the number of classes you have. Thus you level much slower than a single class or dual class.

So is there any post NWN2 cRPG that is in the same vein? I'm mostly interested in party banter, and I haven't really seen much of that since BG2.
>>336260119
>Thieves, as far as their class-definition goes, aren't meant to use their combat abilities unless it's a life-or-death situation.
Aren't "meant" to? Then why do they have them - and especially why do they have high-damage abilities that require premeditated set up? Since you seem fixated on 3E, here:
>The rogue’s role in a group can vary dramatically based on her skill selection—from charismatic con artist to cunning burglar to agile combatant—but most rogues share certain aspects. They aren’t capable of prolonged melee combat, so they focus on opportunistic sneak attacks or ranged attacks
>Killing goblins is like playing exterminator. They're seen as a pest, even to most of the Faerunian pantheon
So doing the same thing to bandits would only be possible for evil wizards? What about someone who assassinates goblin leaders?
>My original point stands, there's yet to be a video game to capture even the most surface nuances of their namesake
Your original point was that it failed to carry through a restriction that not only do most actual groups ignore, but that wasn't even actually present in the edition. You can't even get being a pretentious hipster right.
>>336261189
Not true, because of the way the 2E XP curve worked. It's exponential, so you'll only be one level behind most of the time.
>>336261468
>I'm mostly interested in party banter
Dragon Age Origins
>>336261189
I'm pretty sure for example a cleric/mage multi will reach 10/10 with the exact same amount of experience that it takes a cleric to reach level 10, dual to mage and get to 10/10 again.
Of course the dual will get to 10/0 sooner, but then it won't be able to use its first class skills for a while. Dual is more of a rollercoaster ride, while multi is a smooth increase.

Retard. If killing is automatically evil then there aren't any good characters in DnD.
>>336262798
So the inherent Evilness in the class isn't about what it does, what tactics it uses and what abilities it receives, but just what its name is?
I think I broke the thread
Fuck you, assassins are evil.
>>336263032
Except for all the assassins who aren't.
>>336263032
Not in 2E which is the ruleset of the game in the OP so fuck off now.
>>336263015
As far as a pen and paper RPG goes? Yes. Literally yes.
I understand how shortsighted that might seem but a class isn't just tactics, abilities or statistics. A class employs a background or a motive to a character, and from a roleplaying perspective, the difference between an Avenger and an Assassin is day and night... Almost literally.
>>336262960
Are you unironically suggesting otherwise?
>>336262960
>>336262969
No, killing a bandit to save yourself is not evil, for example.
But specifically hunting down someone just because he leads an organization is evil.
When there is a way to avoid killing, you should aim to apprehend people.
If you want to dethrone an evil person, you should put him to trial. If he resists arrest or attacks you, then you can kill him. But if you go there in the first place with the motive to kill on sight, you are evil no matter what.

No it isn't. What defines it as good or evil is the purpose behind doing so, not the act itself.

>>336263462

Paladins are a special order that get their abilities from literal righteousness and fall and lose their abilities if they don't uphold it.

>>336266446
Maybe he wanted to play as a madman.
>>336266446
No I'm just not very wise XD
>>336263243
But I thought that
>Assassination, be it a good or bad target, is an intrinsically evil act.
?
>>336266446
Unless, you're planning on using Wish there's no reason to pump wisdom at all for a mage. It doesn't do anything.
>>336266446
>>336266552
Well it will suck when he wants to cast a wish spell but still there are plenty of potions of insight around you can always chug before casting wish
>>336266707
why am I laughing this hard

>never good to dual at any time
The fucking casualness of this comment has triggered me.
>>336266876
WIsh is a waste on anything other than Sorcerer or Wild Mage, because you're not guaranteed the right selection. That means wasting precious Level 9 slots.
>>336267536
If you have high wisdom you're guaranteed to get SOMETHING good so it's never wasted.
I wish someone made a mod to merge IWD, BG1 &2. I want to play IWD but with the varied enemy types of BG2
>>336267727
>what is EET
>>336267805
Wow, that looks awesome. Will try it on next run, for now saving my disc.
>>336267650
Idk, I somehow manage to get the wand, potion and haste options. The only time I got the double time stop option was during the Ravager fight, and him being immune to time stop did me in. It's just not worth it especially when you can use those slots for more time stops, black blade,chain contingency, spell strike and improved alacrity.
>this thread
It's like I'm really on RPGCodex except they know fucking Baldur's Gate of all games is 2E
>>336252150
>Anyway, just pick whatever pure class and pump your main stat to 18.
You can't pump a stat. BG1 rolls for stats.
>>336267805
HOLY SHIEET
I've been trying to play Keep on the Borderlands mod for ToEE but I've talked to everyone (even the woman who can't sleep at night) but I can't progress at all!
I've looked everywhere but I'm getting nowhere. What do I have to do?
>>336251962
>BG1
>fun
>playing with default portraits
Ewww
>>336267805
In EET you have your own group caught by irenicus?I would love to have best girl since the begginingHaving bg1 npc in bg2 sounds awesome.
>>336255697
>But then again I am a horrible pervert
Most people are, they just don't admit it. Better to be that than a violent sociopath.
>>336268973
After the whole mine nonsense it gets fun, it just feels like the build up into gaining entry to Baldur's Gate is really drawn out. When I was in the city, that's when the game started to come to life for me. I got drawn into all the quests that were in the city. I wish the rest of the game had more content
>>336268973
It is fun. It's not the best IE game but it was the first and is overall an enjoyable experience. Planning on replaying it soon with unfinished business and the NPC project.
>>336269125
This desu. Puritans are the biggest perverts too.
Choose my destiny /v/
Sorcerer or Wild Mage and why one over the other
it's for a solo game from bg1 to tob
thanks
>>336258560
It's kind of funny that Nathyrra from HotU is technically Lawful Evil even though she actually acts like a good-aligned character, because her Assassin levels technically require an evil alignment.
I've played almost every isometric RPG, but never finished any. I've always stopped midway for some reason. Could anyone recommend me which isometric RPG I should play and finish first?
>>336269595
Wild Mage
Sorcerer is boring, you have max 5 spells for each spell level, no variety just fireball spam.
>>336269057
>playing with shitty greasy portrait pack
>>336269595
Wild mage for lolsorandumb wild surges
>>336269629
Fallout 1 because it's short and sweet
>>336269629
>>>/wsr/
Rec threads don't belong here.
>>336269595
Sorcerer is better, because you select the spells you actually want or need, wild mage is too unreliable sometimes.
>>336269652
>5 spells is one spell
>>336269595
Wild Mage, I can't play regular mages anymore
>>336269747
A sorcerer it is then thanks
armor or shield for level 1?
>>336269815
Problem with Sorcerer is after a while level 1 spells become obsolete, unless you plan on using Chromatic Orb a lot. Whereas a Wild Mage, can later on use all those level 1 spells as Nahal's Reckless Dweomer and rape shit.
>>336270007
>3 people say WM, 1 says sorcerer
Why do you even ask if you already decided it yourself beforehand?
>>336259207
>Alignment restrictions? In a Role playing game? You're shitting me. Really?
Not many non-D&D games use them.
>Assassination, be it a good or bad target, is an intrinsically evil act. There's nothing good, nor honorable in killing an opponent unaware of your presence.
Assassination is no more evil than killing someone in open combat. Would you seriously argue that if the choice is between felling a tyrant's regime by assassinating them or letting their evil rule continue because no one can defeat them openly, the people should continue to suffer because of some arbitrary notion of "honor"?
>>336270223
I bet you would also argue that nuking Japan was a lawful good act because it "saved innocent lives".
>>336259341
>Some people enjoy adding a ton of difficulty to the game and then using a powergamey party.
It kind of seems like those two things would cancel each other out and bring you right back to where you started.
>>336269724
I guess asking question about CRPGs in a CRPG thread is a crime. Thanks for redirecting me, pham.
>>336270110
Magic Missile is useful too
>>336270195
I read the class description and that 5% chance of wild surge kinda sucks
>>336270353
That's exactly the point.
We enjoy minmaxing and optimizing our party, but it makes the game too easy. So we make the game harder.
>>336270432
Don't reply to retards
>>336270483
Do you hate fun?
>>336270195
>3 people are retarded one isn't
>>336270613
Well this IS /v/. 99% of the userbase is retarded.
>>336270483
Run around with a Chaos Shield. The more levels you get, the better the outcome is.
>>336270782
it has low duration
Duration
5 rounds + 10 rounds/5 levels
/v/ NWN server when?
>inb4 everyone plays as elf sluts
>>336271106
I'd love to be a drow slut.
>>336270483
What's Magic Missile going to do, when you reach TOB? Enemies have too much HP and have spell protections. Yes, it might be good to use as a disruption, but when you're up against a group of high level enemies, alone, is disrupting only 1 of them good?
>>336271184
I would love to burn you at the stake with my paladinbros
>>336271268
so it's better to use nahal reckless dweomer? even at high levels its useful?
>>336271271
Try to do it rivvil.
What level do you usually reach at the end of icewind dale?
>>336271268
Even for normal mages in ToB, you don't use many 1st level spells. I never did.
>>336271403
Maybe if there was a server
>>336271358
Nahal's reckless dweomer lets you cast any spell you have in your spell book. You don't even have to have it memorized. You can theoretically cast level 9 spells as a level 1 wild mage by using NRD
>>336271429
I had around 15 on my team. This is from a save before a final boss.
>>336271268
Use a spell sequencer with 3 magic missiles once you have lowered their defenses.
>>336271743
The cap is 18 isn't it?
>>336271429
I hit the cap pretty early. I do HOW and I reach the cap when I enter that Ice cave to find the old woman.
>>336271904
Original IWD let classes get up to level 30 and EE is no different.
>>336271483
What's exactly required for making one?
>>336271743
Alright, thanks
What's a good level to dual a fighter to cleric then 4,7 or 9?
>>336271628
yeah but the odds arent very good to cast the spell using nrd I remember seeing a wild mage in youtube to cast invisibility reloading multiple times
>>336272162
9 is my favorite. If you will do it earlier you will just recieve more cleric spells instead of hugher number of attacks and weapon pips.
why not just make a general at this point
>>336272162
7. That's when fighters get their apr increase.
>>336272418
There used to be a crpg general on /vg/, it was shit.
These thread should be okay as long as we don't make them every day.
>>336272082
The game, some persistent eorld modules for it and the ability to host a dedicated server. Never done it myself though.
>>336272418
/vg/ has shittier people.
>>336263569
Yeah, it's like saying every wizard has to be a bearded old man who wears a pointy hat.
>>336272557
You can already see some /vg/ tier behaviour in those threads desu
>>336272557
Too bad no one talks about the BEST D&D games.
Pic related:Pools of Darkness
>>336272418
These threads will probably die soon until the next big name CRPG comes out. Technically there's already a general for BG2 but its 99% Dragon Age Inquisition discussion
