was being cordial on the dex and asking a question, while hoping for clarification from Dexers like you obviously. So do the beholders take your Balduran shield due to SCS and a specifically installed component, or is it an Ascension component such as harder Beholders?. Thanks!.
The variables that can be set in SCS are these (all start as 0):
DMWWDisableBeholderTheft - set to 1 if you want to block beholders from stealing the Cloak of Mirroring or the Shield of Balduran with their telekinesis eye.
"Able to be trusted as being accurate or true; reliable."
1. My write-ups are accurate, true and reliable. If unintended errors or omissions are exposed by readers, I edit the write-up and credit the reader.
2. My retrospectives are based on the original and authoritative versions of the games (not the EEs). I'm the only commentator whose retrospectives contain no admixture of the EEs.
3. My blog enjoys Google authority as it pertains to the Infinity and Aurora engine. And basically any other RPG I want to write about now. I post, I get ranked within a few hours. Even expert pro-bloggers and marketing gurus know it can take 6 months just to get a degree of prominence, and up to 2 years for actual prominence. You never get there without posting King Content. Google penalizes write-ups that aren't King.
As usual, and as a shitposter lost in the shuffle and unread, you have no idea what you're talking about.
Pro-tip: You can't even take a swipe at me in this sphere, let alone talk down to me. It doesn't wash.

I love the way I can post a question on the Codex, and a horde of panty-knotted autists come screeching out with the answer and indignation for the manner in which it was posted. Honestly, I can't see how the Codex was even considered to be such an unfriendly place to be. :D
The only *maybe* decent one is Tower of Deception, it doesn't introduce new spells or fuck with power progression in a significant way as far as I remember, but I also think the new maps didn't match the vanilla style of the game at all and made you feel like "oh ok, I'm playing a mod now". The perspective wasn't even correct iirc.
dark side is very old and its a classic bloated hodgepodge of things. i found it a curiosity but not really a quality mod. many others were never completed last i looked. shadows over soubar etc.

Durlag Tower. SCS mod + some other mods. 4 Warden Fights. Love, Avarice, Pride, Fear. First 3 killed. Fear remain and is unkillable - I can get him to almost dead but he cannot be killed, no matter how much spike dmg is done, always stays at "almost dead" + regenerates health quickly after. I assume this is due to some mod (SCS?) - anyone had this? - is this due to some RP reason (and player is supposed to grab a wardstone from Love remaints and go to lower level) or there is some special way of finishing Fear like in case of Trolls, etc ?
There might be a problem of scripts. I dont know what it is exactly and the correct way to deal with it.
I can tell you some ways to to deal with those script-cause problems.
Can you let him go and just run away to previous level? Absolutely get a loading screen change, then move away from the entry point and wait a while to see if he chased you across loading zones. They usually dont, though some specific maps and specific enemies may do so.
If Fear dont follow you, get a full rest, rebuff and return. He either stand at the exit zone, or nearby. And his script might be reset a bit. He will still be quite hard, but not impossible anymore.
Use some of these combo to deal with him: skeleton + cloudkill, spider spawn + web, fire elemental + continuous fire bombardment (necklace of missile, fireball, oil of explosion). Experiment~

That was technical details, boyo. SEO speak and stuffs. it seems Lilura is one of the few girls you can sweet talk into disrobing with coding and SEO talks~
On the other hand, her blog get ranked seemingly a little faster than my webpages. But probbably because hers is blogspot and near Hongkong hub while mine was elsewhere. And English versus Vietnamese, probabbly.
Another note: original texts such as LP on Lilura is better rank than marketing text since we tend to copypasta content quite a bit AND focus terms get used more organically. I do notice mine was more prominent when I take time to write from ground up than compile from other sources.
Indeed. I don't mind dropping hints because these guys are clueless. Also, I don't mind giving these hints to my competitors because I thrive on competition.
But yes, maybe I should translate my blog into Vietnamese. And Portuguese for the Brazilians. Don't discount that, my friend (translation power).

Symptoms
Individuals with narcissistic personality disorder, according to the DSM-5, exhibit five or more of the following, which are present by early adulthood and across contexts:
A grandiose sense of self-importance
Preoccupation with fantasies of unlimited success, power, brilliance, beauty, or ideal love
Belief that one is special and can only be understood by or associate with special people or institutions
A need for excessive admiration
A sense of entitlement (to special treatment)
Exploitation of others
A lack of empathy
Envy of others or the belief that one is the object of envy
Arrogant, haughty behavior or attitudes
Individuals with NPD can be easily stung by criticism or defeat and may react with disdain or anger—but social withdrawal or the false appearance of humility may also follow according to the DSM-5.
Your lies are impotent: no one in the two-decade history of BG has commentated on it more than I have.
So what if I covered a few mods for it? That's merely to exhibit the seminal engine's capability (scripting prowess and contingency-capability). This hurts you, I know.
None of the BG mods I've covered require the BG2 engine.
At this point, noble sentiments must find expression:
Write off anyone who prefers to play BG in the BG2 engine. That includes EE and its precursors: Tutu and BGT.
Generalist BG2 fanboys would be the worst of all if not for the SCS-specific ones that scrape the bottom of the barrel. It is utterly hilarious that the bacterium listed above think they are elite for playing SCS.

You don't have to play BG1 in Tutu or BGT for those mods you covered to break progression.
Importing the save into SoA does the same damage, it's just not interesting if you want to continue with the same character.
