So I just finished Pillars of Eternity and am really enjoying that everyone says this is the game that inspired that game. What are the differences? Is it pretty much the same? Baldurs Gate 2 Enhanced Edition is what I was going to buy.

I'm very familiar with AD&D. I have actually played D&D with Dave Arneson and Gary Gygax. Not at the same time : (. No I am not joking. Dave Arneson was kind of sexist and Gygax was just odd. Just wondering like for comparison does it have more involvement or less involvement.

Just picked up Baldur's Gate 2 EE and Baldur's Gate EE on Gog for 15 bucks total. What mods do I install? I am unclear if they're for the Enhanced Edition or not.

Woolie Wool posted:If it's your first playthrough the BG2 Tweak Pack should be all you need, maybe More Style for Mages if you want to give wizards some way to contribute when they're low on spells. Okay, the BG2 Tweak Pack it is. Shouldn't I though start with Baldur's Gate 1, loaded up 2 and it was like " Welp , hope you know who these characters are" So gonna go with Baldur's Gate 1.

Woolie Wool posted:BG2 Tweak Pack works with any Enhanced Edition game, including Icewind Dale. Did you install Siege of Dragonspear (this is important, it adds another step to installing mods!)? No I haven't I was going to play BG1 and BG2 first , plus it looks like it's really buggy right now so I'll wait. What's a good not overpowered but not underpowered class that I'm going to really enjoy? I am not particular to mages or clerics. Is ranger poo poo? I remember trying Baldur's Gate many years ago but this will be the very first play through of either game. Hollismason fucked around with this message at 21:04 on Apr 9, 2016 |

Enjoying the game so far. Very similar to Pillar's of Eternity. Question though: My character died and now I've got all these enchantments like Invulnerability etc.. Is this normal?

Jesus, is there a beginner guide somewhere on quests to avoid like the loving plague. "Please go kill some spiders in my house"  I only have 4 members in my party right now. I've succeeded in a few quests so far. Not very far into the game but I just walked into a Inn and some guy killed the whole party WELP

Thanks now I just have to figure out why even though it's set for non permanent death everyone stays permanently dead. I'm in Chapter 2 right now, and now have Minsc and I guess I'll let this guy Rassad join. It's a fun game, although I can't figure out why backstab doesn't seem to work on flank.

I'm regretting my decision to pick Fighter/Thief. It's very boring. Also I didn't realize Minsc would just loving leave so I ended up having to put the game on Easy mode and then go rescue his lady. I think I am in chapter 3? Game's fun but seriously it's very piecemeal on what to actually do with regards to quests. Fun though. Very relaxing. This is the regular Baldur's Gate EE. No mods, but I still haven't quite figured out how to install them.

Wizard Styles posted:Fighter/Thieves aren't all that early on, but once their backstab multiplier goes up, they had the chance to possibly raise stealth a little and you're generally past the point where everyone is missing constantly they become reliable backstabbers. Yeah I honestly got confused and thought that sneak attack was in the game. It's just backstab which is kind of tough but I figure with two thieves I can do some damage. I think I am going to end up Dual Classing Immoen to Mage/Thief

This is fun so far, but I have the dumbest question. How the hell do you dual class? Like I see the button ,but nothing there. I wanted to dual class Khaelid to be a cleric.

Kavak posted:Only humans of certain classes may Dual-Class, and they need high attributes for it. Ah he's a half elf so I guess he multi class ,but guess you can't do that in the game? Or you have to start something else? Also, for a game about Baldur's Gate... takes a while to get there.

Wait, you can talk to party members some how and romance them? Is that in the game because I have yet to ever have a dialogue tree with any of the party members.

I kind of wanted her dual mage as invisibility is awesome. I am assuming backstab works on sleeping enemies.

ineptmule posted:While on the topic of Mages - have you found the Ring of Wizardry? It's an absurdly good mage's ring that is hidden outside the South walls of the Friendly Arm Inn, in the ground by a tree, kind of in the middle of the map. The lootable area on the ground is tiny, so it's tricky to find the first time. Cool, yeah now that Khaelid is dead as soon as I find another druid she is getting the boot. Ankheg plate mail is something I had a question about. I gave the Ankeh to the another but no platemail.

Yeah, I just gotta get that proficiency in Scimitars/etc.. cause I wanna be able to ditch that Quarterstaff +1 I have. Found the Ankmerh Armour, + Turned one in so I'm probably going buy one for Bren so she'll basically be in plate. I just don't like the mage I have now and need to get rid of her through death so Minsc will stay.

Can you only have one Ankheg? Armour? I got one in a field gave it to my druid. However, I gave it to the smith in Beregos or whatever its called ,but it's been waaaaaaay past 10 days. Actually he just gave me 500 gold or something. What armour should I get Minsc? I got him in Full Plate right now.

Anyone familiar with the gibberling mod know where the mod puts the ammo pack? I got so many loving magic arrows. Finally got the Ank armor but now don't know who I should give it to. Minsc - +1 platemail My character - shadow armour Brenwin - +2 mail of the dead Jaheira - ank armor Immoen - nothing Daheira - nothing Minsc is a loving beast. Boots of Speed, Spider Bane, and potions of speed.

Indeed Branwen , Indeed  Games really fun now. Was very boring at the beginning. Now it's a lot of fun and I am tearing through enemies, the fights are definitely tough but not crazy. It helps that Minsc has a two handed sword and boots of speed.
