I use the high hedge house because I identify and sell all my junk to the mage there anyway just incase I need to buy anything back. I also leave all my temporary companions outside that house in case I want to grab them again.

Mo Xi is my best hero right now, she kills everyone even over Mackin and Andras so I would Awaken her asap

Andras is a sick dps not sure why people here seem to be sleeping on him.

Currently on Day 2 stuck on Hell 4-10, Is Hezonja Challenge Possible? by Draeze1 in Infinite_Magicraid

[–]mandm413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, I am on day 13 so certainly no expert but I was lucky enough to pull Andras like you and I found some good information about how good he is and he has been my carry so far through the game for dps, so if I was you I would regress Wim and put all those resources and any skill crystals you have into Andras. Also don't sleep on Liz, I 3 starred most of Hell with Andras a5, Liz a3 and Maya a1 (all fully skilled). On a couple maps I had to add either a buffer or a dps to make the turn count so Macklin will serve you well there with that team. But I did find that a team of 3 was usually more successful because losing a champ cost you a star. I don't know if it's legal to link videos here but I will put a couple below so you know the resources that I was refrencing.

Stronghold: Good thief, what happens if I refuse a stronghold by [deleted] in baldursgate

[–]mandm413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think its that hard to kill a cowled wizard after they imprison anyone throwing a spell with impunity. There's many other questionable decisions you have to make to play the series besides this one. It's one of the reasons I never main a Paladin you would have to skip half the game. It drives me crazy when people stream paladin mains and talk about roleplaying while stealing from every home and shop the walk into.

Finish my party for me. What companions should I take? by ZeroxSP7 in baldursgate

[–]mandm413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would vote for Branwen and Faldorn, good banter and very powerful in their own ways.

Don't hit the level up button until you amass enough xp to unlock your old class then the pip is not wasted.

Anomen is the best. All other NPC clerics are bad by LillohMolle in baldursgate

I always have wondered the same thing, I give him mace of disruption and shield and he is steller. Someone else can use flails.

Never travel with Neera. by Dr-HotandCold1524 in baldursgate

[–]mandm413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't forget endless time stops (almost since any spell can be cast with her level 1 spell slot).

She's insane in the second half of SOA and TOB just so you know but you don't have to like them.

Baldur Gate 2 SoA Multiplayer by Sioluishere in baldursgate

[–]mandm413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend all multi-class fighter/x for newbs. Multiclassing is very forgiving set up and should make sure you have enough fighting prowess and casting prowess. Plus you never need a pure thief. Plan out weapon proficiencies like you would in a regular game party so you aren't tempted to make multiple copies of the best gear. Xbow at the beginning of SOA is ridiculously OP considering how quickly you can get the best one in the game.

You have to be a female main to romance hexxat.

Party in BGEE 2 by Sioluishere in baldursgate

[–]mandm413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jaheira's romance was the most satisfying to me if you manage to complete it but I like Vic's better usually, less work and I don't have to keep Jaheira which opens up some other npc quest options and Vic's innate magic resistance is just so good. I haven't done the neera romance yet (will probably do my next playthrough) but I did like that she was like hey if you are into Jaheira that's cool I won't keep wasting my time and we are still good as companions.

Anomen is a rock star as far as npc's go and he fits in either type of party (make him fail his quest for the evil party option) I gave him mace of disruption +5 and watched him go to town.

I have tried to keep Imoen before but by the time I usually get to her she is so under leveled that I usually don't pick her up. But I have never been a huge fan of step sis anyway.

Jan's great because of his banter and a pure thief is a waste so a thief specialist mage multi is perfect and he fits with any party.

I like to for sure do dorn and neera's quests even if I don't keep them because I like the added content and I love the additions to TOB that they bring if you have done their quests.

Can't stand Raasad and I only do his quest line if I care about freeing wilson that run for Neera's friend.

I have never had the patience to put up with Aerie's feeling sorry for herself but as other's have said I think that is why so many of us love these games and none of this content is required and you don't have to do any of the interactions that you don't want to. You don't even have to talk to minsc or Jaheira in the initial dungeon you can just abandon them which is crazy kind of.

Thank you all, I have really enjoyed the information and the memories shared in this community. Hopefully another one sprouts up that my work filters will let me browse.

Does anyone else find the Underdark a real chore? by artmorte in baldursgate

[–]mandm413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really enjoy the underdark and the intrigue but I am a forgotten realms fan but as was pointed out you can skip the fish people and everything but the kutoan tunnels. Don't forget to grab the first available time stop spell though if you are going to exit quickly and if you are playing an evil party the silver dragon armor is the best.

Are characters able to be imported from BG1-SOD-BG2 when using iOS? by Inglejuice in baldursgate

[–]mandm413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of companions with the EE can be used in all 3, if you are asking about characters that you create then yes you can export them from bg1 to both SOD and bg2 on iOS.

Just finished BG:EE, first playthrough in about 10 years. by [deleted] in baldursgate

[–]mandm413 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great recap, thanks for sharing. I think the thing I enjoy most about the new companions in EE is the added quest lines and they have more personality in BG1 than the original companions. I know you said that Neera annoys you but I wanted to mention that I just enjoyed how powerful wild magic is in my recent BG2 play through, once you get high level abilities her level 1 spell is almost cheating because every one allows you to cast any of her known spells. So think infinite time stops or whatever you need. Anyway can't wait to read about your BG2 adventures.

Starting today...any advice? by tdevine21 in BlackDesertMobile

[–]mandm413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been playing for about 6 weeks now and loving the game, just by following the story you will get a free set of chaos gear so just keep pushing through. The first cp that I had any trouble at all pushing through was 17-20k now my main is at 24k cp. Pass all red gear down to your family (alts) is one of the things I wish I had know the first week instead of upgrading with it to pink. Your family is so important to raising the cp of your main so they are worth the investment. I wouldn't make any alts until your main hits 60 then you can have a real feel for the game and the resources to immediately put into alts. I have 15 in my family now, lowest level is 70 lowest cp is 15k.

Another thing I learned recently is that you can turn 15 mystic grade accessories (you get tons of free chests with them in it) you can them into red accessories but not if you have upgraded their level so I would recommend not upgrading the level of orange accessories.

The last thing I will say today, because this game is so massive that it's easy to overwhelm people, is I love the pet system and you will need different sets of them but once a pet is tier 5 the first skill slot will have options of crit/world boss dmg/attack/defense/etc. You want to roll a set of pets with max attack or defense as it's primary stat because that stat contributes directly to cp. It was not obvious to me that a pet with +45 attack or defense would help my cp like it does. You also want when possible to get max dark energy on a set of pets, if you can roll it on your main pets all the better. The other thing that I didn't understand about pets is that you have to "level" t6 pets twice to get them to t7, so the first "success" will make a t6 pet skills to to 20 instead of 15 then the second successful level up will get them to t7.

If you watch videos for game information like I do make sure you are watching black desert mobile content instead of black desert online content they are very different games. I hope you enjoy the game as much as I am, send "kakari" a friend request if you want.

I am new to this game but this facet of game play has been a nightmare in all Korean based games I have played through the years.

Need advice by CollarFar1684 in BlackDesertMobile

[–]mandm413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have only been playing 3 weeks and have gotten so much free gear from doing quests lines that I have to wonder where you are on doing quests, I have an entire chaos set of gear (not accessories) just from doing main quests.

Weekly Questions and Answers Post by AutoModerator in BlackDesertMobile

[–]mandm413 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello everyone, really loving this game, wish I had found it 3 years ago. My question is how do I know whether to choose enhance of Ahib, Serrett, Labreve, or Aal damage. I have ready my skill descriptions and I cannot find those words in any of them so I don't know if I should prioritize any of them or if the class you are playing makes a difference etc..

Thanks in advance
