@Belgarath - At least Viconia's unedited vanilla portrait looks like an elf. Coran's and Kivan's? Not so much.

I see, eh, I just wrote off as Xzar being crazy, since you know, hes crazy. Hah.

Major Battle: Tranzig
Tactics: Xzar used Larloch’s Minor Drain.

Major Battle: Tent Bandits
Tactics: Xzar used Larloch’s Minor Drain, and Web. Viconia used Hold Person, and Light Cure Wounds when someone got low.
Reloads: Two. Akail dying, and Shar-Teel getting chunked.

Major Battle: Drasus Party
Tactics: Edwin used his magic missiles, armor, and Melf’s Acid Arrows. Faldorn used Shillelagh, and Entangle. Viconia used Remove Fear, and Light Cure Wounds whenever someone was low on health.

Major Battle: Davaeorn
Tactics: Edwin used Magic Missile, and Melf’s Acid Arrows. Akail used Armor. Faldorn used Shillelagh, and entangle. Viconia used Remove Fear, and Light Cure Wounds on the wounded.
Reloads: One, Davaeorn chunked Edwin, and Faldorn with a Lightning Bolt.

Akail: Thief < Abjurer - 5 < 3
Kagain: Fighter - 4
Edwin: Conjurer - 4
Faldorn: Druid - 4
Shar-Teel: Fighter < Thief - 4 < 4
Viconia: Cleric - 4

Reloads: 3. Two on tent bandits, and one on Davaeorn.

Bonus Picture:

Viconia and Shar-Teel talking this time.

Note: Also, if I were to continue this run into the BG2 Minimal Reload Challenge thread, would I be able to use the BG2 Fixpack, 1PP, and Enkida's Portraits, or would that stray too far from Vanillia?

Condolences on all the dying, Sapphire. As for continuing your run into BG2, I'd say do whatever you want and set your own rules. It's all about having fun.

I love your "bonus pictures" of rarely-seen banters.

Thank you! As for BG2, I think I'm going to go with those three mods that I stated earlier, and I think I'm going to put in the Sarevok Romance because I've always wanted to try it out. So, basically mostly vanilla if I decide to include the Sarevok Romance, but thats enough about BG2.

Thanks again! I don't have any of those this time though.


Major Battle: Iron Throne Party
Tactics: Viconia cast Animate Dead, Silence, and Hold Person.

Major Battle: Reitar’s Party
Tactics: Akail cast Monster Summoning I twice, armor and mirror image. Viconia cast animate dead twice. Edwin cast Skull Trap, and Magic Missile. Faldorn cast Entangle. Kagain used Potion of Healing whenever he got low on health.

Thanks everyone!

It was fun playing an evil person. I usually don't do it, and I didn't expect my reputation to get so low.

Sorry for lack of updates here. Anyways; Party Status!
Ajantis Paladin 3
Imoen Thief 3
Lerinn Cleric/Mage 2/1
Edwind Conjurer 3
Viconia Cleric 2
Kivan Ranger 2

So the party killed some half-ogres and Lerinn got her reward. Also met Drizzit, but she can't bring herself to steal his Scimitars. They move on to saving the Nashkel mines. Which was oddly super easy this time around. (maybe because of the fact I beat the entire game across one week last week.) When the Lerinn and friends head back to the inn for rest though, Nimbul strikes!
The result is disastrous. He horrors Kivan and Edwind and has six magic missiles, easily killing everyone but Viconia due to her magic resistance. Lerinn ran for the temple, while The sixth magic missile barrage slays Viconia. Reviving everyone for 1400 gold, Lerinn plans to grab the magic missile and Armor scrolls in hopes that she can live to kill Nimbul who is being held back at the temple (he followed me! 0.0) surrounded by four of the five party members. Kiven goes with Lerinn to get his bow and armor back and he chugs a potion of healing to have a fighting chance. As the two head back, Imoen is finally killed by his Axe and he starts to attack Kivan, but he didn't last, as Kivan got two arrows in him, and two magic missiles ended Nimbul. Spending another 1000 gold, Lerinn revives her party and heads to Beregost, where she calls it a day.
Also, returned Joseph's ring to his wife.
I decided I will get either Alora or Safana in my party over Kivan and Coran (I used them with my other character. I just want variety) Which do you think I should take, as I still plan to dual Imoen around level 4 or 5.

ArchDragon, sorry you're having a tough time with the Nimbul battle. It may be too late at this point, but what you need is the spell Remove Fear. Clerics get it at first level, and it lasts a whole game hour. You should always cast it before you fight a mage if you know it's coming, or as your first move when you see a mage.

That's because they are usually scripted to cast Mirror Image to stop you from hitting them, and then their next spell is almost always Horror. You've just learned the hard way why your top priority when fighting a mage is to defend against that spell. If he had gotten it cast and Viconia had had the spell memorized, she could have also reversed the panic effect on other party members, at least if she got it cast before they scattered out of range.

So, always have your clerics carrying Remove Fear in one of their first level spell slots. It doesn't hurt to use one of your mages' second level spell slots for it, either.

@BelgarathMTH Did I forget to mention that I had no spells as I forgot to rest? no matter. I'm alive!

So Lerinn went on to kill Bassilus simply because she wanted the bounty on his head.
Well, she chose the wrong options and Bassilus and his army of skeletons and zombies came and eventually killed Ajantis, a random bolt kills Edwin. The rest are easily slain by Kivan. Picking up Ajantis's corpse, The party forgets to get Edwin's scrolls and as such lose them (My Magic Missiles!!!!!)
The party also kills some spiders outside of that one gnome's home before they go to pick her up quest and complete and whatnot. Lerinn also quickly kicked Kivan out for Garrick because she thinks bards are cool! (I have decided that I will either keep Garrick or pick Safana as I dual Imoen.) The party then kills Greywolf and turns in the bounty of the two emeralds. Calling it a day, the party starts trying to decide what to do next to gain the strength needed to kill flesh golems.
Party status:
Ajantis Paladin 3
Imoen Thief 4
Lerinn Cleric/mage 2/2
Edwin Conjurer 3
Viconia Cleric 3
Garrick Bard 3
The day Edwin gets chunked is when I ask him to stop dying....

Last update.
So Lerinn went and picked up Safana thinking Garrick was useless. She then went to a mountain region in hopes of finding winter wolves but all she found were ogres. Two ogre berserkers and two hobgoblin elites slay everyone. Chunking Viconia in the process.
