P.S. PLus, pretty much all BG2 mods suck. By default.

Nah, there're BG2 mods that contain better writing than DA's. (And NWN mods with better writing than the NWN OC's, or DA's, or JE's, or ME's.) :smug:
Though the problem is that it also spawned Saerileth.

Yes, well, PS:T also "spawned" Merilililinda's idea of making TNO female, Ravel her lesbian lover, and FFG an incubus.

Give it up, dude. You are flat out lying. Or plainly suck. A huge number of spells are effective versus bosses, and the sepll selections is fine. By level 10, you should have around 15 spells, so don't tell me you cna't find even a handful of useful spells vs bosses. Stop the bullshit, and tell the truth.

1) I don't lie.
2) I'm level 14 now, have 19 spells, out of which 5 are passive abilities. That gives me a variety in spell usage like say a lvl3 Wizard. Anyway, you like it, I don't. So I guess we can just agree to disagree.

How about some examples of spells that you find don't work against bosses?
IIRC all CC works against them, bosses just have a higher chance to resists knockdowns/stuns etc than regular mobs. Of course it's hard to tell what's actually happening without a combat log or any way to see debuffs on targets.

From my selection of spells all of them work. Cone of Cold, All of the Hexes, Force Field, Crushing Prison, etc. Every one. Of course sometimes they resist it, but they work! Sometimes it's necessary to use other type of damaging spells because enemy is resistant to one of the types, but it's expected and reasonable.
