So at 3rd or 4th level for Aloth I was given a Talent. Of the two the Tome Smash or the DR5 to Blast's both sounded better than all the others. My question is this. I ended up taking the DR5 to blasts but what do I do that are 'blasts'? I had initially thought that the 2 per encounter attacks he gets were 'blasts'. Also is it better to have Aloth use a wand or perhaps equip him with same a fine warbow? I use his spells when I think I am in a 'tougher' than normal encounter but will have him stand back and wand stuff which actually seems to work. Thoughts on how to improve?

I cannot figure out how to split a stack. For example I have 6 meat pies and Id really like to put two in 3 characters slots. What key combo am I missing? Thanks!

Yes, Hold WALL, I am familiar with it. its like 4790 in coin which is not impossible to obtain. I have been told it is still not fixed and fires at the same rate as other arbalests. If it did what it claims then the price is worth it. Now, will that stack with Gunner?

I have her using an Arbalest but I also will quickly switch to stilettos if she gets closed on. I don't mind melee-ing with her but I got soldier for the Arbalest. I wanted her a bit rounded out and did not min max at all. Str 16 Dex 17 Con 10 Perception 10 or 12 (cant remember ill look up later.) Intellect 12 Resolve 10 I don't have any stats below 10. So far I got Soldier, and shadowing beyond. I did not get backstab as I have zero luck trying to get into proper position for it to work. Is the skill 'gunner' worth getting if I am gonig to keep using an arbalest? Should I move over to an Arquebus? Thanks much... I know there are a ton of posts on Rogues already. The community is awesome for putting up with the endless posts on the same topic.

Thank you VERY much! This was exactly the information I was looking for. I will go back and check my sheet. Will it say if I have any 'negative' dispositions and how it grows?

Greetings, as so of you have read I am playing a game and had asked some questions about weapons for a tanky pally and tanky Eder. What are convictions and can I change them? I am alinged with the conviction which gives a bonus to accuracy I think. I favor 'clever' and passionate' responses but do not understand if these responses improve anything or not. I did not take greater lay on hands at lvl 4 and instead i got 'hold the line'. If anyone has some pointers for how and why a pally does what he does would be welcome. I am doing fine and got through my fight with Raedric and Maerwald. The Raedric fight was interesting. The pally and Eder picked up nearly all the soldiers and Raedric. I had my rogue with a fine arbalest and my cypher and aloth all focus fire on the mage and down he went.... The heavy armored pallys and knights were tough. I had to use all my spells on aloth and durance to keep going and take out Raedric. The Cypher had a tough time building focus on such high DR targets after the archers were down. I think I may keep her with stilletos. She had a war bow but could not do any dmg to gain focus. Cheers...

This is a VERY helpful thread. I did indeed take defender and Ill just spend the cash and get him 'respecd' out of it. I keep my Pally Moon godlike PC, and Edder up front. My pally seems to be better at keeping mobs and taking dmg than Eder. Ill go seek out those weapons. I am saving my mats to get enhants on the weapons. OOOOO big BIG question. Did they fix the speed enchant on HOLDWALL the Arbalest in the first town? I have read it does nothing but is suppose to make it fire a bit faster. Any word on this?

GREAT, thank you very much. I was using a hatchet on the Pally tank. I see some posts stating that 'DEFENDER' on Eder is not very good. Why and what would be better if I spend the $ to respec him?

Greetings folks. I picked up White march and proceeded to play what the forum describes as a slightly OP combo, I have a Moon God Pally with the accuracy god, and I am also using Eder as tank. I have a Moon God Cypher, and a Wood elf ranged rogue. I also have Aloth and Durance. So the ranged in the back wearing some armor and my pally is lvl 3 in chain and Eder is in his custom scale. What weapons? The pally has the pally buckler and was using a hatchet but I wanted to at least hit a bit so enemies will be less likely (they still will) disengage and go for others. Eder is using the Flail Gauns Share but feel its just not hitting it. For tanks in this case what single handed weapon would you equip and why? I followed the pally build but mine is a bit more rounded as I am enjoying the dialog with having some perception. My pallys resolve is 18, Might is 14, Con is 13. I can always respec I suppose. I am also wondering if I should keep both tanks with Estocs as secondary in case I need to crank out some dmg, what are your thoughts on this? Thanks again!

Thanks for the replies. Two points of view here. One says slower weapons (Arbalest) is better, the other is that faster weapons will give more crit opportunity. How is the War Bow against higher DR enemies? I like that I can sneak and get a very good alpha strike on with the Arbalest but you are correct the load times are silly.

I recently started a new game for the new patch. I cannot tell if Hold Wall is worth the 4k+ price tag or if I should just go with a regular 'Fine Quality' Arbalest instead? It says +20% speed reduction, is this working in game?

Greetings and thank you. I have read numerous articles on how to use the toolset in NWN2. I am a bit daft. Really I just need a forum where I can ask questions for what I am trying to do. I know that the NWN2 subforum takes you offsite. I was trying to minimize my forum registrations. Is there a NWN2 Forum available where I can ask how to do things and create items which I can 'give' to characters in the solo player game? Thanks!
