Specialized Arcane Fighter Kits for BG2 (And hopefully for BGT)

05 September 2008 - 04:10 PM

Have you ever wanted a fighter with some magical influence? A warrior who can use magic while not becoming a mage? Maybe you wished for a specialist mage/fighter multiclass? Maybe you wanted a fighter with unique abilities, that would actually be able to keep up with your other classes at higher levels? If you're interested in any of these, then I have wonderful news: This mod is probably something you'll like! If you're interested, continue reading below....

There are nine different kits, each one based on a type of mage specialization. They have positive and negative abilities relating to their school in magic, are specialized towards particular roles that their school is best in, and can cast certain spells from their school as innate abilities. Expect their talents to fit the personality and abilities of the school: For example, Dweomershield, the Abjuration fighter, has phenomenal defensive skills at the cost of offensive abilities, while the Wraith Knight, who is the Necromancy fighter, gains many abilities and penalties normally reserved for undead.

These kits' abilities actually continue improving all the way, starting at level 1 to 40. They improve every five levels, with a special boost if the fighter successfully reaches level 40, and appear like this: Lv 1-5, 6-10, 11-15, 16-20, 21-25, 26-30, 31-35, 36-39, 40. Some parts of their abilities and most of their spells improve with every level and their magic improves past level 20. Because I plan on making this compatible with both BG2-TOB and BGT (I don't know if this would be compatible with an unexpanded Shadows of Amn), I arranged their abilities so that they would be playable in either form.

These kits have several common disadvantages. They progress at a rate between a normal fighter and a mage, which will be represented by a 80% normal experience gain. 10,000,000 EXP will be required to reach 40th level instead of 8,000,000. They cannot dual class and must roll a 10-12 in intelligence, and sometimes wisdom, depending on the kit. They are very weak in either one or two areas of combat or certain common situations. They also have several common advantages: They gain spells from their school, have one or two unique spell like abilities and are often superior to all other classes in one specialized area.

This is still in the idea phase, so some kits might seem overpowered or underpowered because they are currently unfinished. Some of them don't have names, others have uncompleted skills, still others have either their advantages or disadvantages out of proportion. That's where you come in. I'm looking for advice on improving and balancing these kits, to find advantages and disadvantages that make sense, and for making them all very unique and playable. Any commentary, especially criticism, is much appreciated. :)

CulaConsole doesn't work?

15 May 2008 - 10:38 AM

I guess this would be the spot, since I'm using a form of the Big Picture mod.... CulaConsole doesn't work, even after activated. Something indicating that the command wasn't received would come up, or "Active Stack" would appear when I try to use CC, without the cheat activating. I tried to use this to move to unreachable via bug areas, but this doesn't work either. Do you know what's going on here?

PS: Ctrl-Letter keys work fine, but the rest doesn't work.

Area Unreachable

02 May 2008 - 07:22 PM

I'm on the Banshee quest, reached the area with the Banshee, talked to her, killed her.... But when I try to go back, all the areas are "unreachable". Is there something I need to do to go back, or is it something else?

How do I get these modding tools to work?

11 April 2008 - 07:13 AM

I'm having a few problems arranging and finding files. Here are the problems:

DLTCEP has a bunch of folders that it needs that I don't have a clue about.

Effect description path isn't set up with Effcreator.

I don't know how to extract files with WinBiff.

I don't know what files to open with NearInfinity.

Any help would be much appreciated.

What's your favorite method of getting rid of Saemon Havarian?

Personally, I have Edwin cast Flesh to Stone on him, then pretend that we bring him back to the Pocket Plane and start our own abyssal art collection. :devil:
