Need help with NWN OC

[RK47]

Hold your horses, Holy Avenger in NWN is nothing like Carsomyr from BG2.

oooh must roll Paladin/Cleric then. Time to start a new char. ^_^

Aribeth returns in HotU, you can romance her and you can give her Astral Blade +8 so who gives a fuck about being Paladin.

even if it's nothing like the Carsomyr - I've always got bored with the OC giving only +3 Greatsword - Dagger of Chaos. That's it. Nothing else. No variety. I crafted +1 Harbinger Kin in Chapter 1, and there's nothing else.
I hope they improved the weapon variety. It's pretty boring to just identify the weapons and see +1 +2 + 3 with nothing else on the property.

Just because of RK47, I re-installed this game.

Holy crap, RK, how do you even tolerate this game?

I complete forgot how nauseating the character-fixed camera was. You can't move it around, but only rotate or zoom it around the same person. It's one of the most clunky ways to control a game. Possibly among the top five worst interfaces ever. Since not everything is visible from a single angle, you are always forced to waste your time rotating.

This alone makes playing the game a depressing and irritating experience.

 

[RK47]

Hm? I finished it just fine, starting up my SoU run.
Good stuff.

He's incestuous weeaboo freak with absolutely no life.

 

[Wyrmlord]

Good stuff.

By an interesting coincidence, I also finished SoU as a cleric.

SoU has perma-death of companions, so it really helps to be the healer.

 

[RK47]

you're joking right? when the companion falls in chapter 1 they still respawn in the clubhouse.

Lawful Good?

Best part of SoU is keeping all artifacts and double-crossing that J'nah bitch. Plus if you're evil she gives you information you otherwise would never learn.

Plus HotU is way more fun as evil as well.

pssst... it's the only way to be an asshole and still be Champion of Torm ... pad that Good points with shit quest and healing wounded...then help the spirit in tombs...before looting their graves afterwards.
I'm aiming for Lawful Neutral

NWN2's increased options just made it worse. Cameras are best when levels are built for one view, whether it's behind the back or top-down.

FUCK YOU YOU FUKKIN' PIECE OF FUKKIN' SHIT! NWN has the best camera and the best interface ever. HOW DARE YOU BESMIRCH THIS AWESOME PRO NWN THREAD WITH YOUR PIECE OF CRAP LIES!?!

Are you just saying that because an evil PC can start a ménage à trois with Evil Aribeth and that dark elf chick or are there other reasons ?

 

[Wyrmlord]

Hey RK, you got the 1GB Community Expansion Pack yet?

It contains all the hacks that most of the popular modules from circa 2005-2006 use.

 

[RK47]

no im just running the official stuff at the moment.

How would that help? The official campaigns don't use any of that. He could use NWNCQ to make the graphics prettier though.

I recommend this.

Sits in your override folder, can therefore be added/removed with ease, works with the OC and improves the whole NWN experience by a fair margin.

PS: The screenshots on that page don't do it justice. Also since GameFront went fubar, use this linkie instead.

Damn. Jaesun, put this in the Mod Repository thread.

 

[Infinitron]

Karmapowered Hey, the download link there is broken. Do you have it on your hard drive? You could upload it somewhere.

 

[Karmapowered]

Infinitron

Does the mediafire link I provided not work for you ? I've checked it before posting, but didn't go through the whole download.

http://www.mediafire.com/?5o1q0klk8c8g1tr

EDIT : I can try to reupload it elsewhere, but this isn't my mod. I tend to respect rights to their mods of their respective authors, so I'd have to ask first.

Also since GameFront went fubar, use this linkie instead.

 

[Infinitron]

Oh, oops. I didn't see that.

I don't suppose you're aware of a similar mod for NWN2?

 

[Karmapowered]

Nope, sorry, not to my knowledge.

There are some essentials for me, like the Tcho's, which you can find on the Nexus.

Has been a while though that I went back checking the various NWN2 mod sites.

Wish I could be of more assistance.

 

[Wyrmlord]

Dragons in Neverwinter Nights are terrible.

A 3/5/7 Barbarian/Fighter/Weaponmaster with Scythe focus can instantly down the Blue Dragon in the Undermountain entrance with six hits, doing 80-100 points of damage on the critical hit alone.

A 20 Sorcerer or Druid with Shapechange: Red Dragon slowly and sluggishly struggles to kill a single Bullette or Landshark, even with all the druid buffs. When it is successful, it has 75% health.

It's a pretty good bet that a Weaponmaster of a much lower level could make short work of a high level spellcaster in dragon form, let alone a real dragon.

 

[Lightknight]

What is an interesting class to pick for expansions ? I tried playing SoU as a warlock, i think, and it was hell. Finally gave up somewhere in the slave dungeon.

 

[Infinitron]

There were no warlocks in NWN1.

 

[Lightknight]

Well whatever is the...uhh...red dragon-something.

 

[Zeriel]

Red Dragon Disciple. They were pretty cool. I felt the same way about them that I felt about warlocks, though: amazing, amazing idea with tons of potential, but horrible implementation. (That goes just as well for its actual tabletop implementation, too, they're just kind of badly designed with a fantastic idea behind them.)

As far as classes, I always found a fighter/blademaster combo pretty fun for HOTU, since it's an expansion that's all about munchkinny loot collection, with the ability to enchant weapons up to (and past, I think) +10.
