#110935 Renal Bloodscalp dialogue

then what about the tob encounter? now renal doesnt need to send his crew to you.A perfect idea, I hope you are reading this Lucy. It would keep Chloe's nature as you intended her to act, but would restore Renal's reputation from its ashes. Not to mention that it wouldn't be too much work, and you'd have to add 2 or 3 new short dialogue lines only.
She would start threatening Renal, so the PC would get a chance to shut her mouth before causing too much harm - if she would continue and keep threatening him, Arkanis Gath would appear and kill her. Not something that an author would like to add in his/her NPC mod (since nearly all NPC modders tend to make his/her character a bit more.. special).
i think this idea is better then the assassines renal would send, as shadowmaster pointed out.

sorry. i interpreted your post wrong.Actually, no it wouldn't be. And what makes you all so sure that he'd send a mindless group of assassins to kill her?then what about the tob encounter? now renal doesnt need to send his crew to you.

i just wait what you have done for tob.

naa, thats boring. i always do the full staff. my list of mini tweaks and mods has 40 entries or something (lots of small things like beholder hive upgrade). i dont install all npcs because not all are good and i dont play with them all.
but things like tactics and battles and better items are always in. i share your opinion that those items unbalance the game even with tougher monsters but for the endbosses i use them (they are too tough for poor litlle me ).
okay, i dont install imoen romance if i dont play with her. but the rest must be in.

this is more suited for necros.
blood magic
you can cast any spell and pay instead of magic energy with blood.

yes, yes. i know the spell system of dnd and the difference of sorcs and mages. it just sounded more cooler for necros who sacrifice their health to power their spells or something.Oh, I disagree 100%.
Nerco's learn spells. One of them might come up with a way to power spells with blood, but that's pretty far outside of most AD&D spells. Nero's, like other mages, memorize their spells and cast them using external energy.
Sorcerers on the other hand *are* magic. They power their own spells and 'cast' them innately. It only makes sense to me that they could choose to burn themselves to a crisp by drawing upon that source of power too much.

as long as the enemy dont use true sight you always can have simi and pi to attack with wizard eye. i often used it this way to conserve my spells.
what i dont understand is how the simi is immune to true sight? it uses the pi effect with level drain on it....

this effect is for simi if the caster level is <17. if its 17 the spell uses pi effect. i think some unknown values are the source for the immunity.
@tgm: true but it is still the 236 pi effect.

that was one thing that was in my mind, too.Instead it becomes *very* powerful when the Monk is teamed with a Mage or Sorcerer. With one person controlling both the party can have two members acting in a friendly Timestop. Plus since everyone is 'held' in a Timestop all the Monks blows would hit....
Ouch.
ts should be unimmuniable (or whatever
)

yeah, yeah. the old dragon breath did 20d10 damage with one spell.
sounds like the dragon disciple. this is more suited for a kit and not for the normal sorc and at least in 3ed the dragon disciple has latent dragon blood in the body. not necessarily all sorcs.

whoa, i like that. cant wait for that fight.The problem here is that Pit Fiend 'A' goes Improved Invisible as soon as he gets summoned. He is tagged as a 'summons' so that party friendly spells like True Sight don't work on him ... so whatever he decides to do first he is going to get done.I like that though...that is how a real fight should go, excpet, he shouldn't ness wait so long to gate in other fiends.
If that first thing is a summons then 'A' will summon 'B' who will summon 'C' and since it takes more than one round to kill these things you will be facing a neverending swarm before you know it.
With the current setup you at least have a shot at stopping the infinite spawning. If you manange to kill one quickly enough you break the chain.
first i must replay bg1 with a druid shapeshifter.

they are named "boss monster" and shouldnt be killed with one shot. (thats why i never turn them, would be too easy)IMO the litch killing is not a problem. Don't forget that a Cleric of similar XP can turn them & make them go splat in one action too.
Besides how many ToB litches are there? One? Two?
