So I just bought Neverwinter Nights 2 Platinum off Steam

I can't look this up now, but the scene where he shows up with his army of demons is supposed to foreshadow west harbor's destruction. I think it's even mentioned in dialog when your party shows up that it looks like a demon attack.

Like I said, I can understand Jerro's motives and I found it even more interesting that you can press him about his decisions (not just west harbor but other things he's done too) and make him admit that, just maybe, he was wrong. How many Bioware villains ever express remorse at their actions?

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

It's even better that you can WIN that debate with Jerro in the long run and he breaks down to almost tears over what he's done.

Finally gotten around to continuing the OC. Time passed @ 100% at the keep, so I'm getting ready to rape the king of shadows with my gaycloaks. Has anyone managed to recruit like 10k without sacrificing 'the best of the best' standard? I couldn't recruit any more because apparently there were no more recruits to be found.

 

[Cynic]

Shit I have a lot of work to do on my greycloaks and keep in general...

I don't know, if you've done all you could in that respect (I don't know which Sergeant you put in recruitment) then I suppose you can't. Personally, I always went with the 'normal' recruitment threshold, no need to shrink your army when it has so much duties to take care of!

It would have been much cooler if any of that stuff mattered.

Devs tossed a bone.

We fetched.

Head pat, but no treat.

Bringing this back from the dead to ask this: are there any modules meant for level 20+ characters? Preferably 20-30 like MotB, or at least 15-25? Or perhaps an overhaul of SoZ that makes it utilize the full 1-30 level range (encounter and loot-wise)?

note that you alreddy have more than the entire population of Neverwinter.

[Cynic]

Necroing this shit because I finally booted this game up again and defended the keep. After 3 fucking years I had NFI what was going on, but I just wanted to finish it and take my char through to MotB. Anyway I beat the reavers and now I'm in the Vale of Merdelain or whatever and thief bitch has gone missing.

I think this is near the end, afterwards I will MotB.

 

[Excidium]

My last attempt at finishing the OC ended when you have to fight all those groups of guards standing around doing nothing in Neverwinter.

 

[Cynic]

I'm oh so close, not gonna give up now

 

[Cynic]

FUCK this last dungeon and not being able to rest at all ever, fucking annoying bros!

 

[VentilatorOfDoom]

first, you can rest, second, if you even need to rest then l2p

 

[Cynic]

Bro, I forgot even basic shit about this game came back after 3 years. It was a complete cake walk up till here. Anyway I'm fighting the shadow reavers now, got this far without being able to rest, every time I do I get ambushed by level draining shadows!

 

[Cynic]

Ok just beat them.

 

[Cynic]

Whoever the retard was who decided to have a hugely stupid unskippable cut scene right before a big battle really needs to be shot.

 

[Cynic]

Ok bros remind me how to play. How do I turn OFF/ON AI for individual party members? I don't want to control Amon because I can't remember what the fuck his spells do. Also, it really seems as though my characters are constantly unequipping their weapons in combat, is there any reason this is happening?

 

[Dwemer Puzzle Box]

Turning on puppet mode (behavior tab) should be the trick. Or simply turn off party AI, followers are retarded anyway.

 

[VentilatorOfDoom]

level draining shadows!

Shadow Shield, Death Ward

Word of Faith = win any encounter

There's only one proper way to handle AI in NWN2:
http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=NWN2HakpaksOriginal.Detail&id=141

That expands on the options in the behavior tab of the companions, you can tell which weapons (also off-hand weapons) companions use, whether they do weapon switching or not and there are options for casters, even bard and warlock specific. So for instance you could just set Ammon to "NUKE" and persistent buffs. You can also deactive polymorphing/summoning, to prevent the party from summoning their retarded familiars or using wildshape to gimp themselves.

It can't be easy playing games when you don't even bother to read what a few spells do. Is this why everything is 'streamlined', today?

 

[Gulnar]

Also Quara is CN but she plays like CE. But she's annoying as fuck; just use Sand when you get him.

I don't get all the hate for Neeshka. But whatever. There are no other rogues in the game, so if you want to get all the loot (which really doesn't matter - you'll be swimming in gold by the end of the game anyway), you'll have to have somebody spam Knock or just break open locked chests (which breaks items).

It's because they both represent what's wrong in writing with the CN alignment. On one hand you get the "highly aggressive guy/girl who want to looks like he has rage issues but really looks like a sociopath without any sense of self preservation", and on another hand you get the "guy/girl who want to looks like a playful trickster but instead looks like a raving idiot without any sense of self preservation". It seems that if you're an npc and you get to the caotic end of the alignment you suddenly get a deathwish.

 

[Xor]

I never really saw Neeshka as having a deathwish. I mean, the main reason she gets into that backstory-related trouble is because she returns to Neverwinter with the party, but she was headed away from there when you meet her. Actually, her stated alignment is TN but she acts CN. While I'm on the subject, Khelgar acts more CG than NG. The rest of the characters' alignments are fine.

Hey fucker as I said, came back to the game suddenly after 3 years. NFI what was going on at first but I'm all good now, just on the last fight to beat those huge amounts of mini lord of shadows that come at you all good so far.

Yeah what was happening was that my AI weapons weren't set properly or something so they kept unequipping them. Now I set that up right and they don't keep doing that shit, but there are times when Casavir is just standing around doing nothing.

All in all I was quite impressed with The Lord of Shadows himself, looks quite cool and quite a fitting end game boss for a D&D campaign.
