Mongerman's IA4.1 adventure Options

[Mongerman]

Hello all. I started with IA3 and left it due to work commitments. Hopefully i'll be able to finish IA4.1 this time round. Before I start, I'll explain my choice of protagonist, planned party etc etc. Hopefully this will be of some help to all players.

Choice of protagonist : Blade with maxed str/dex/int, 16 con, 3 wis, 15 cha.

Why: It was a tough choice between a f/m as recommanded by thetruth, and my own previous experiences with the blade. However, the blade finally wins out as:

1. With offensive spin and tensers, the Blade's thaco is equivalent (give or take minus 1) to the f/m.
2. With un-nerfed tables (recommanded component of IA), blade gets lvl 7 spells
3. By soloing the un-modded parts of the game, a blade can reach lvl 12-13. Which means when I pick up my party, they will all be at a higher level, as opposed to being xp hogs
4. I hate haer delis
5. I have a blade from BG1 tutu

With my choice of protagonist made, I know I will miss out on the expanded mage/ranger quest. maybe next time.

Choice of NPCs
1.A multiplayer created R/C kicked out till i reach desired level to recruit NPCs.
2. Nalia, to be replaced by Imoen
3. Minsc SK'd to berserker
4. Keldorn

I'll post again once I get underway.

Regards

Just defeated the twisted rune. Sikret, you might want to take note of layene's script. During her double length timestop, she casted death spell thrice at my one single summon, a skeleton warrior! That gave me enough time to GWW her with keldorn with the holy avenger, and she went down very quickly after that.

Which version of IA are you playing? In v4.2 what you reported is absolutely impossible. We had encountered that problem during our previous tests and I had revised her script. Now, she ignores all summoned creatures during her TimeStop. Why didn't you update the mod to its latest version, Mongerman?

EDIT: And how was Keldorn immune to timestop to be able to attack?

If you are indeed playing the latest version of the mod (v4.2) and if you don't have any cheesy item from some other mod which grants immunity to timestop, then your game is bugged for some unknown reason. Perhaps a re-install may help. If you have items which grant immunity to timstop, then you should drop/sell them immediately.
