Phandalyn the Paladin *Spoiler*
I'm just curious if there is any way around the whopping 9 point reputation loss for killing Phandalyn in baldurs gate?
basically he's a Paladin that will attack you on site if he detects any evil members in your party
he must be one of the only guys who initiates a fight and causes such drastic rep loss

should we keep the old 'roll your stats' feature?
this feature is the one thing I didn't like about BG. Rerolling stats either make me feel like I'm cheating, or that I'm really gimped.

Dorn overly powerful?
Is it just me or does Dorn feel way more powerful than, for example, Rasaad.
I'm having a big dilemma of choosing the party. Dorn seem to be very interesting character, so does Rasaad. However the stats seem to be just incomparable. Everything is better for Dorn, 19 str, incredible stats, better AC, many times better Damage and THAC0, more hp, just overall incredible kit and let's not forget that starting sword.
He's better in every single aspect by a mile. This seems to be a one question IQ test here..
Is the monk just bad early levels and become stronger than Blackguard later in the game?
Is it worth it to deal with all the evil-in-good-party issues to get him and dump the monk? This is really giving me a headache >.<

Archer kit bonus?
The gamebanshee website says an archer kit (of ranger) gets +1 to hit/damage per three levels.
My question is if you start at +1/1 and then at third level get +2/2? Or do you start with +0/0 and get +1/1 at third level.
Also, can you use darts as your missile weapon?

Looking for a Assassin/Thief Portrait
I've scavenged almost all the popular portrait sites, I looked thru IWD portraits, sorcerers site, ironworks, etc.
I could NOT find a good assassin portrait.
This is the kind of portrait Im looking for:
Dark cloak over face, dark themed picture, and clothing that suggests he's a thief/assassin/rogue
Why is this so hard to find!?

Offensive spin question
I did not post this in bug section as maybe I am just misunderstanding the description.
Offensive Spin - lasts 24 seconds, granting the blade +2 to hit, +2 to damage, and an extra attack. As well, all of his attacks do maximum damage for the duration.
I activated offensive spin with a two handed sword equip, the sword is 1d10 according to the stat screen I should be doing 7-16 damage. I attacked the enemy hit three times before they died did 6, 6, 7. Now according to the description I should be hitting 16 each time right? Even if that is a incorrect number on my stat screen the sword is still a 1d10. So am I missing something or is the offensive spin bugged? Also can anyone tell me if offensive spin effects bows?

Amulet of Power
So I just finished The Black Pits and I happend to notice that the class requirements for the Amulet of Power have been changed. In vanilla BG2 every spellcasting class could use it. In the Black Pits, Paladins amongst orhers were not allowed to. So I was wondering weither this will stay the same in BG2EE? If so this change would annoy me alot. Level Drain is imho one of the most annoying effects in the game and I prefer playing a cavalier to a undead hunter.
So was this intentional? Will it stay that way in BG2EE? What do others think about this change?

An Infinity Engine MMORPG
I remember when Baldur's Gate first came out and I heard it had multiplayer, I remember thinking "It'd be awesome if its multiplayer was like Ultima Online!!" But alas, it couldn't have been further from the truth. So now, over a decade later of reflection and seeing the rise and falling of WoW, I remember the dream of a young teen all those years ago and think, "It would still be soooo awesome!"
Just imagine the endless possibilities if we had an Infinity Engine Forgotten Realms World. Now THAT'S worth a monthly $15...no $10....no.... nvm.

Crazy Party
I'm finally realising my dream of playing through Baldur's Gate with a party of lunatics, and I am looking for suggestions as to whom I should choose to bring with me.
My main character is a CN Dwarven Fighter/Thief named Glendar, with decent charisma but shameful intelligence and wisdom. The rest of the party will likely be mostly spellcasters, and probably mostly chaotic characters. Not everyone has to be entirely crazed; just a little bit out of sorts - like Xan - is fine too. First of all I decided on Xzar (a no-brainer, isn't it?), who I'm going to dual-class to Cleric as soon as possible, and the rest of the candidates are as follows.
* Neera
* Garrick (his love of life is insane)
* Xan
* Quayle
* Faldorn
* Tiax
* Edwin
* Kivan (because I might not do too good without a second warrior)
Ideas?
"Smiles, everyone, smiles! This is like some great fantasy!"

Weapon Icon on portrait?
I've noticed the team have implemented an attack sequence identifier that shows the player the action they have chosen during combat via an icon on the portrait.
It's a great feature, especially for spell usage (as the player often get's confused) however, seeing a weapon icon constantly displayed upon the character is rather mundane and irritating. I'm sure a player knows the difference between standing idle or attacking an enemy. The game does involve a level of wit, let's not dumb it down.
I think translucent icons instead would be much less invasive and irritating, since the icons should be used only as a "temporary" indication of what the players actions intend to do. Unlike spell casters, melee characters spend 80% of their time with a weapon icon etched across their forehead because their actions scarcely change.

A legit method to keep items from Obe's training (AR2643)
Since the export->import bug was reported, registered, and will allegedly get fixed in one of the upcoming patches, people won't be able to exploit it anymore at certain point (though, in all honesty, it seems very clear to me that export->import with items is blatant cheating -- sure, it's an in-game feature, but so is CLUA Сonsole, after all).
Here is a legitimate in-game way to obtain those items:![image]()
Basically, you need a LN mage or sorcerer with Find Familiar to pull this off. Just make your ferret pickpocket your temporary teammates for two items of your choice (I'd take a Wand of the Heavens -- 10,000 gp never hurt -- and a Small Shield +1).

Disclaimer Misspelling?
On the little disclaimer thing at the bottom of the page (the one that has all the legal information and stuff) there is a typo or something. It reads: 2012 Overhaul Games, a division of Beamdog. © 2012 Hasbro, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

So... BALDER'S GATE?! WTF is that!? It is listed as a separate thing from Baldur's Gate... so... is there a funny story behind this one, because I would love to hear it!

Games You Would Like to See Enhanced
Ok, not counting the Baldur's Gate Series, Planescape Torment, Fallout 1&2 and the Icewind Dale series (because they're all so similar and familiar it's sort of a no duh to add them), what game or games would you like to see Enhanced?
My List in No Particular Order:
1) Master of Orion 1 and 2. (Master of Orion 3 does not exist)
2) Master of Magic
3) Colonization
4) Quest for Glory 1 through 5 (there were only 5 right?)
5) Temple of Elemental Evil could use some serious help.
6) Arcanum of Steamworks and Magic Obscura

Hardest Class to play, Challenge yourself? or Suggest it here
Ok, I got 3 heroes 3/4 of the game and got bored of them so I created probably the most difficult class ive ever come across yet.
Try playing a Mage/Divinest using minimal spells that are not from your school. I reckon this guy is going to obliterate enemies in bg2 as a massive support mage though at a high level.
Anyway any other hard class someone believes should be added here, I got to say as a divinest you get a lot of gold early cause of your identify so you can buy more but you need to reach at least level 3 to be of any use as a minor support caster.
