Let's Play - BGT with a Codex Crew

I think I've seen BG mods described as fag-made stuff ITT and I wholeheartedly support this notion.

BG2 has at least 10000 romance mods. you should install all of them and get your Slut Achievement Badge.

4) Finish BG1 – Just do the quests that will bring us to the end.

Paco has something like 180K already so I think the best option is to head to the finish and move on to BG2 but I will do what the people want.

Finish it!

End the agony of your terrified party-members... By taking them to the far more dangerous BG2!

I always found BG2 to be easier, because of the higher levels and overpowered equipment. ToB is more difficult, though.

Depends. Nowadays it's a walk in the park because I know the nooks and crannies, but first time Kangaxx was a nightmare.

I just Slayed him. If you know what I mean.

EDIT: And he's an optional boss who is supposed to be the most powerful enemy in the game (until that mandrill-demon whose name I forgot that came with ToB). The "main" fights aren't on the same difficulty level at all, although vampires can be kind of a pain with their level draining. BG2 is even easier with ToB installed, and the high level powers that come with it. My summoned Planetar could pretty much handle Irenicus by itself.

You gave my character some of the most gayest lines I've ever read, why would I read this anymore? I mean shit man, if the portrait was that big of a problem, you could've picked one for him, I wouldn't mind.

buuthurt paladin is butthurt

You choose a paladin, you choose someone who's going to get poked fun at. Simple as that.

Besides, it's the LP'er that decides how the characters behave. That's his prerogative. Suck it up, Wulfie.

Miko: A paladin never compromises.
Roy: Does a paladin ever remove the stick from their ass?
Miko: No. It's a class feature

Click to expand...

Paladins are scientifically engineered to be poked fun of

Stop being all butthurt Wulfstand. Feng-Grunker left the entire LP out of butthurtness, but you don't see me complain

I had big plans for Wulf. There was going to be some drama when the whole Bhaal thing came up. Hence all that crap with Penny trying to show him how misguided Paco was.

Then chrz had to go kill him. Bitch.

If Wulf is butthurt, he should look at Reds short, but glorious stint with the crew and count his blessings.

:rance:

Also, his faith is his shield!

Come on guys, I ain't butthurt, but I guess I was for a while, dunno.

In any case.

Come to think about it, that did sound a bit gay. Eh, whatever.

Overarching storylines don't work well with this rotation of chars.

I was sure the Barbarian and Feng-Grunker would be with us forever
At least Feng-Grunker can still return, seeking to assassinate lord paco

Way to stay in character, man. You are an ideal Paladin LARPer, even on an internet forum

Victory is mine!

But there was a price.

Updates to start soon.

Chapter 16: Durlag's Tower - Part 1

OK everyone ready?
Where we headed chief?
Durlag's Tower. Something about a dagger. Maybe some other stuff. We will see when we get there.

We travel to Durlag's Tower






What's wrong with his eye?
It looks a bit infected.
Sorry merchant. You creep me out. I'll take my bloated soul somewhere else.








Ok everyone warmed up?
Truely the blood is coursing through my veins! Onward!
Oh bloody hell.



We Enter the Tower

Looks like this place is trapped. Louie you're on point.
Ehh.. what was that now?
Point - you are on it.
Not sure I understand you chief.
Point means you go first.
I be knowing what point means you inbred mutt. What I doesn't understand is why I be on it.
Because no one else can detect traps you moron. Get to it.
Truly it is an honor to walk the point for any group.
Wulf always had point...
And he's bloody well dead ain't he!
Shut up, shut up, shut up!
You're point or you're out. You choose.
Also if you leave I'm going to kill you.
What!?
I think Nickless agrees you should get on the god damn point.
Fine. But if I die I swear I will come back to haunt you to the day you die.
Well then you better find the traps and not die then.

We head up to the Second Floor





It is a good thing we do - dispatching the undead.
I find the whole chore tedious. Where can we find some gold or spells in this place.
There is more to our existence than wealth and power.
I have neither the generosity or patience to explain to what you do not understand about our 'existence'. Let's go.





You feeling OK chief? Normally this is the type of person you kill on sight.
I feel.. slightly benevolent at the moment. He can live for a bit yet.

We go up anther floor.






So what jackass should we give this to?
What happened to your benevolence?
Slight benevolence. Slight.








And everything is back to normal.

We head into the Basement










It is truly a weak man who abandons his companions.
He don't be their bloody muther. When the shit hit's the wall it be every man for himself.
So we can count on you. Good to know.
Don't worry - I'd save you tits. I might need shade in the summer.



Louie, you are really terrible at finding traps.
Me skills are more focused in other directions.
And what direction is that?
Why the erotic direction big boobs. Perhaps I could show some day. Or tonight. How about in the closet over there.
You two can fornicate for our amusement later. We have work to do.

We head down again








Oh good. Riddles. I'm sure this won't be tedious.






It seems likely that one of the ghosts wants this.




And this.





I'm sure this was helpful.






Useful I'm sure. Are we done yet?


May I make a suggestion?
Why not. Everyone else does.
When was the last time spirits trapped in a ruined tower just went away?
These spirits seem the trustworthy type.
But just in case perhaps we should retreat to a defensible position before speaking to the last one. Just in case.



Bloody hell. The mage be right. I hate it when that happens.





OK we got the ward stone that will let us go down again. Let's go.
We only killed three of them. Where is the forth?
Who the hell cares. Lets go.

We go down again






Oh good. Doppelgangers. Exciting.



















God I hate skeletal warriors. A real pain in the ass.
What are those beings over there?

They appear to be guarding this body. Or his belongings.
If it be worth guarding it be worth stealing.




Louie Levels Up





OK that was slightly underwhelming. Let's continue down.

Next - We continue down

Waiting for the chessboard, altho for some reason i don't think durlag will have a high death toll .

Looks like chzr is the biggest danger the party is facing

Chapter 16: Durlag's Tower - Part 2

We descend again




So.. free meat shields.
It seems like a wise investment.







OK lets go kill some shit.

I forgot to take shots of the Greater Wyverns we killed. Oops.

Good work. Wonder what else we can have these guys kill.
Hate to break it to you boss but the minions are looking a little crazy eyed.
Dammit, Nothing is easy.




Nickless Levels Up





chzr Levels Up




God dammit Louie! What exactly are you here for? Because it sure as hell isn't to find traps.





OK enough screwing around on this level. Apparently we need to clear out these four tunnels. Should be easy.









Anyone else hearing an inner voice?
Something about preparing...
You people cannot comprehend what the voices in my head say... Also we should prepare.



Hmmm. OK everyone maximum firepower.




Well that went well.
It's because we are an awesome fighting machine.
Also we had two Wands of Fire, a few Potions of Oily Burning, and a Necklace of Missiles.
Well true. But who used all those items?

Louie Levels Up



Down Again



Three paths? I begin to wonder if this will ever end.
We can only hope.












That be a shiny sword.




What happened..
It appears this is one of the paths.







I'm getting a little tired of being teleported all over the place.
Yes, it would be unfortunate if you ended up in a wall by mistake.
















Oh good. Back here again.






OK only one path left.
Perhaps we should just take up that other ghosts offer to leave. I be pretty fed up with this place.
No! We swore an oath to retrieve the dagger for that random dwarf we met at a run down inn in a stinking fishing village. We must carry on.
Who the bloody hell swore an oath?
The oath was implied.
























A Demon Knight. We must end it's foul presence.
Or we can bloody well leave. Who votes leave?
You are implying that this is some sort of democracy. Onward.







Arrogant beast! Now you're end arrives!

We got handled pretty easily the first time. Not pretty.



Arrogant beast! Now you're end arrives!


Good work. Let's take a look at this dagger.




I despise a weak man.
He was just a boy.
Weak boys turn into weak men.






Well that wasn't long and tedious or anything.
I think we need to return that dagger chief. I have a bad feeling about it.
Don't worry. The hard part's done.

Next - The hard part starts.

Chapter 16: Durlag's Tower - Part 3

We travel to Ulgoth's Beard







What the hell does the mage think he is doing?
That worked well.
Way to leave us to fight them off.
Those damn assassins were all after me! If you all could hold a line I would not need to do that.
Cowering behind a magic barrier. A true disgrace.
Says the man in 100 pounds of steal.
Enough. They got the dagger.
How did they do that?
Well we were talking and then he just sort of reached out and you know what? It's not important. Let's go talk to the dwarf.




OK let's go find these cultist. Hope they are not difficult to locate.


Well that be convenient.






Bloody hell.
You be looking a bit orange there mage.
Go to hell.



Damn cultist. Almost as bad a stinking druids. Let's wash the floors with their pathetic blood.

God damn cleric. Always mazed when someone is about to die!

TITS NOOOOO!!!!! I never got a chance to show you my erotic - Arghh...

Well that didn't go to plan.


Well she killed a lot of our enemies. I mean a lot.
And Wulf.
Who?


What I find surprising about his death is that it wasn't from a trap.

Pariah Zeal Levels Up



OK. There are cultists and more than likely a demon down these stairs.
Maybe we should go get reinforcements.
No need. All we need is our chessboard strategy as well as every protection from magic scroll and potion we have.





Alright - lets do this.


Fire in the Hole!!!



Cultists are dead! Get the demon.

Doh. Nick we need some meat shields.



OK level draining sucks. I'm going to direct from the back for a bit.

Well damn. We're demon slayers.
A glorious day indeed.
Not so glorious for the others.
Every war has its casualties.



You were right Penny. Reinforcements would have helped.




OK I need to go find a priest to get a little restorative action going.

We Travel to Baldur's Gate


In the Temple of Helm


Alright. I guess we need some more recruits.
The gods be dammed. You're still alive.
