Baldur's Gate Planescape: Torment questions

[Severian Silk]

How do I check the level of Morte's Litany of Curses ability? I'm not getting the correct dialogue entry from the harlots, so maybe he received it already, but I don't know without being able to check.

 

[SCO]

i don't think you can, except maybe by trawling the journal or trying to see differences in the effect itself.

 

[ColCol]

You can't check it.

 

[Mebber]

I think Morte makes a special comment once he heard some new insults and thus improved his Litany - don't know of any other way to keep track of the level of Litany of curses.

 

[ColCol]

He does (usually) make a comment when he receives a new one/level, but there no way to check after.

 

[Whisky]

Can't check it aside from hearing his remark when getting it. Not that it's really that important for the game.

 

[hiver]

He will tell you when his powers increase. Thats all.

 

[Severian Silk]

Ok thanks.

 

[Severian Silk]

When do I choose my feats and stuff? This is a DnD game, isn't it?

 

[t]

ADnD. No feats.

 

[DraQ]

ADnD. No feats.

Can be paraphrased as "lolnewfag".

 

[hiver]

i cant really connect the date of registration with his ... behavior and questions such as these. Must be some kind of mistake... / should be changed to 2015.

 

[Gord]

Maybe he registered here, then got hit by a truck the next day and spend 10 years in a coma.
Imagine the shock when he wanted to check out all the great games he had missed in the meantime...

 

[Dwemer Puzzle Box]

Oh God, the horror.

>wake up yesterday

>die inside

 

[Severian Silk]

Sorry. About my only familiarity with DnD is from playing ToEE, which I actually studied up on a bit.

 

[Severian Silk]

I finished the mystery box delivery in the Hive. The spells are removed and the box destroyed I think. I'm supposed to look for Mar now, but i can't find him. I found the dead limlims, but he's not standing there. Any idea on what happened?

Note that during this quest the game crashed a few times when entering people's homes.

 

[Clockwork Knight]

Oh God, the horror.

Put a lot of point on STR and CON for easier combat.

 

[Cadmus]

ha a good place to ask my questions!
I'm now in the catacombs below the Buried Village. Put everything into INT WIS and CHAR for the dialogues so the combat is a little bit hard, I haven't found any armor either, only some goddamn cursed fists which are the only way I can kill the wererats. Have I missed the option to become a mage or will I still get it?

• the game stutters horribly when casting Chromatic Orb and once almost crashed and once crashed when the stupid fucking rats cast some sort of wasp swarm-like spell on me, is there a fix for special effects or something?
• Dak'kon eh he doesn't seem to have any regeneration at all, is this correct?
• I suck ass at this game because I still can't get over the fact that you can die and probably should use it to your advantage
• is it possible to revive dead party members?
• did I fuck up by creating what seems to be a mage character?

 

[RK47]

To become a mage you actually need to talk to someone else ABOVE the ground.
She's at the dumps.
And her appearance is deceiving.

You can get regeneration if you get their CON above 18 if I'm not wrong. Try tattoos.
Gaining the ability to raise death would involve having a cleric, or unlocking your past... I recommend exploring the Mortuary very carefully. And if there's someone who knows you there, you need to be polite.

Shit shit, thanks. I always try to talk and explore and be as polite but it gets tedious so I have to take breaks otherwise I'd just run through the game.
Any more great non-spoiler hints like these?

 

[procrastinator]

Don't trust the skull.

 

[Ninjerk]

High CON regen is hacks.

 

[Cadmus]

But I'm starting to like the skull!

Guys any advice on how to deal with the magic effects without having to reinstall with some more patches? I don't wanna start playing the game again..

 

[RK47]

I have no idea. Turn off Hardware Acceleration?
