Hello,

 

I'm running a BGT megamod, and I encountered a band of nasty Bounty Hunter dwarves in the Nashkel Mines.

They're way too strong. They kill me almost instantly.

I don't know what mod they come from.

 

But I understand that the only way to pass them is by cheating.

So I wonder what is the best way to do it.

 

There is a command : CLUAConsole:EnableCheatKeys() 

And it enables the following cheat :

 

CTRL+Y  --> kills the creature under the cursor.

 

I haven't tried to switch my game to cheat mode yet, but I read that this command can break the game and prevent some quests from advancing.

 

So I wonder, what is the best way to get rid of the dwarves?

 

Thank you.

You can CTRL+Y those dwarves without penalty.

(The warning is meant for plot creatures who deliver a message or advance the game in some way - these here are just bounty hunters.)

 

PS - you can just slide the game difficulty to left side for this one battle and set it back to the former value after the fight. Then loot them without having to cheat.

I tried to change the difficulty slider....to no avail. They're waaaay too strong. :)

 

I did some research and found which mod those dwarves come from. It's Dark Horizon.

The name of the dwarf is Gorken Bloodaxe, he's accompagnied by a bunch of Duerdin Dwarves, and he's got a....bloody axe. He just chop off my whole party within a few seconds.

 

I should have tweaked this mod better. But anyway.

I will try the cheat tonight. Hope it breaks nothing. Because my megamod is working so well for now. (I have 335 mods)

Or you could just go around the dudes...


Yep, Jarno Mikkola. my Mega Mod FAQ. Use of the BWS, and how to use it(scroll down that post a bit). 
OK, desert dweller, welcome to the sanity, you are free to search for the limit, it's out there, we drew it in the sand. Ouh, actually it was still snow then.. but anyways.

STRG+Y on those guys will break nothing. It is just an extra battle giving you some loot. No further consequences for the game. The fact that you cannot avoid them for finishing the Nashkel mine quest is the main reason why some people dislike Dark Horizon.

(They are not too hard to kill if you manage to lure them out one by one.)

That usually doesn't happen with SCS as the enemies call each others out so the player can't use this tactic as it seriously ruins the spirit of the encounter.

exactly

I play with SCS, and they all attack me at once, even when not visible.

With SCS the combats are just amazing but the game has become so hard.

Okay. I passed them without the cheat

I pulled the difficulty slider to the left, and I beat them....it took me 3 hours!!!

3 hours! Changing tactics at every try. But I did it.

And the reward was huge. I won a lot of XP (I needed them badly) and my first magic weapons.

 

An encounter I'll remember.
