NWN: Hordes of the Underdark


Recommended Posts

I think CEP is justa glorified HAK so it doesnt overwrite the original 2da filesand so on, so for you to use CEP in HotU you would have to add the apropriate HAK to the modules by editing them in toolset.

But im not an expert on NWN (and have forgoten alot of what I once knew)

and I have no idea what kind of conflicts this could cause, so I offer no garantes :sorcerer:

You get the material you need either from natural resources like doors (metal or wood), chests, tress, et al. Or you can buy them at stores if they have them in stock. Yes, it's not the most useful kill in HOTU sicne you have mega magic items available in; but useful in more low magic mods and stuff.

This addon is very difficult, I play on easy but I get raped all the time.. well, my henchmen gets raped that is. My rod of resurrection is in constant use.

 

 

Not having access to spells/scrolls is a major drawback. Is there anyway you can micromanage spellcasting characters like in Baldurs Gate? That Drow girl never casts anything useful.

You cna get the spellcasters to cast buffing spells before battle. Use long lasting spells (like SS) as soon as you rest and get them toc ast lower duration spells like haste just before you know a battle is to start. If you do this; they should get right to the heavy hitting spells right away instead of wasting time casting buff spells like mage armour or ghsotly visage while you are being smited by tough critters...

Ill try that, I just usually tell her to cast everything she's got.

 

 

 

Another oddity is that when you ask her via dialouge to cast a spell, her list of available spells is never the same. One day she has "dispel magic" another she may may have "lesser restortation".

Buy them from WHERE exactly? The "out of thin air" armour parts Boutique? And how come its free to magicly transform it into a robe? Anyhow, it makes no sense to charge a player gold for a purely cosmetic alteration. If you could change the armours properties, then shure, itd make a little more sense even if it would still be "I pay myself". This is stupid people, admit it.

 

 

 

Thought:

 

Im guessing that the armour parts are taken from some kind of global resource file, wouldnt parts from the CEP show up when you do this? Or are original skins, models etc. stored separately?

Have a look at Dawnwalker's mod from the Hall of Fame.

 

also comes in standard flavour.

It didnt work since it only adds levels. That's why I had to use the Editor.

oh no, you don't have to use the editor... you just use the "set current XP" command (whatever it is) and set yourself way low. then level back up with givelevel or set the XP back high... i don't remember what happens, but i think it also takes away your feats/skills when you drop it.

This is true.

Basically you are removing the experience of the character, which means all associated hit points, spells, feats and attribute bonuses accrued as a result. So if you yo-yo your experience, your fighter can, say, drop "Exotic Weapon Specialisation" and gain "Imporved Criticals" (assuming the normal pre-requisites are present).

Well, what do you think I should do? Usually when you take routes the Designers didnt really intend you to take, you end up missing story content one way or the other.

The last time I went with my gut feelings and against the obvious route I ended up missing out on the coolest NPC in the game* :thumbsup: So Im quite hesitant to do it again.

 

 

 

 

 

*that was a completely different game, of course

It's personal preference. I had a big issue with giving the Ithiliads anything ... I did it first time through because I thought I'd need every advantage against them in the big fight. Second time through I killed 'em all and kept the mirror. (Pity they didn't implement Psionics properly in NwN. All the thralls should have been toast.)

 

Hint: I would only suggest that it is quite possible that you would not complete all the side quests on the way to the major battle, anyway.

If you go back to the Drow compound before completing them all you are not permitted to leave to finish them.

Well, now I got swept away into the 8th circle of the hells. Why do you always end up spirited away into some strange new realm where you're usually also trapped?

 

 

Im weird, but I get so involved with my char that I cant enjoy playing if I know im only doing it to get out of somewhere. I hate being trapped.

Well, I was thinking of getting the platinum (or is it deluxe?) edition. I don't own NWN or any of its expansions and I really hate to rely on friend borrowed copies of games.

 

And since there are a few modules that I want to try, I was seriously considering it. ;)

I heard something about the Platinum edition containing some "minor tidbits" as where the euro deluxe edition is just NWN+SuO+HotU in their budget DVD casings packed together.

 

 

Now Ive found Aribeth and I really wish you could have 6 chars in your party like in the good ole days, now I have to ditch either my kickass spellcasting Drow or Valen with the romance story going on. Gah.

 

..or, I could just not take Arbibeth but thats just a waste

Another delicate problem, I found the most beautiful armour ever but its "evil only" so I need to change aligment in order to wear it, and the question is:

 

 

Will my aligment have any effect on the game?

 

 

 

p.s

 

I curse BioWare for their poor taste in underware textures, hows my heroine suppose to look cool in a grey diaper?

Aye, they can make magic swords that cut through demonbone like butter, but a pair of decent knickers? Nooo...
