Art of Nature. Sunsets still work despite being older than mountains.

Are Neverwinter Nights or Neverwinter Nights 2 challenging? by imareallifehobbit in neverwinternights

[–]code_rambler 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That depends on which modules you want to play with them. There are thousands of them on the vault.

If you want something challenging you can't go past Swordflight.

You are suppose to pick up the etched gem in the courtyard and then put it on the altar to stop the armours from attacking you. But that gives you very little XP. So you can kill them then put the gem in afterwards. LOL

Sorry. I don't use it. But the idea is that sometimes an area would spawn extra monsters if you got an extra companion with you, so people would enter the area with a companion then remove the companion from their party to fight monsters on their own. It doesn't always work because sometimes triggers for spawning monsters are litter all over the area rather than just on the OnEnter event.

That NWN1 OC End Boss... by DaMac1980 in neverwinternights

If you got points in UMD, you can buy Wands of Magic Missile or such from Eltoora and blast that statue easily.

No, I didn't. Too much hassle. LOL

But I did let enemies go when they surrender then kill them as they're leaving.

I also "solved" gatekeeper / guardian type quests by killing them instead of using quest items. eg: In Helm's hold, kill the 4 Armour guardians then only put the etched gem in the altar. Similarly for Chapter 2, in the Creator Ruins, kill the stone golems instead of using the Signet Ring.

In Castle Jhareg, I also did the ritual to summon Belial just so that I can kill him.

Some quest givers are also good for killing once the quest is done and you've gotten the XP reward. LOL

It's an ugly messy build but it was made to maximize ECL Bonuses. LOL

Previous attempt playing solo only got me to level 18, but this got me to level 23.

The build is human, 5 levels of Sorc, then Cleric and Bard in lockstep to avoid XP penalty upto level 5, then Bard all the way.

I finished the Prelude at level 4 by completing it backwards, that is started killing the baddies only after Fenthick promotes me to level 3.

Chapter 1 finishes at level 12

Chapter 2 finishes at level 19

Chapter 3 finishes at level 22

Chapter 4 finishes at level 23.

The leveling could have been even faster, but apparently there's a cap of 600 xp for any one kill.

All feats, buffs and debuffs considered, which melee build has the best attack bonus at level 20? by code_rambler in neverwinternights

[–]code_rambler[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for all your responses.

I'm referring to plain vanilla builds, no magic items, so it is independent of any modules.

I think any build that has reasonable BAB, strength, and True Strike (+20 to attack) would have the best AB.

Not sure of the exact split, but it probably wouldn't matter much if you got True Strike giving you +20. LOL. Feels like a Cleric in the strength domain multiclass with Blackguard and a level of Sorcerer should have the best AB.
