My experiences with IA 5.0, Continue Shadan's topics with similar name Options

[Ryel ril Ers]

When Shadan started to play with IA 4.2, he opened a topic for write his experiences. I want to continue this with the v 5.0. So everybody who want to share his/her experiences could write it in this place and don't opened hundreds of topics wich tells somebody walkthrough. I want to gather lots of information in one place. (Sikret's walkthrough is too good so i don't want write to that place), and the starter player see which tactics, parties and quest orders works, and how use his/her money.

I ask everybody who write in this topic:
-Use spoilers tag for the tactics
-Don't write down serious spoilers
-Don't write down statistics (like xy has 69% fire resist) and immunities. (except the weapon enchantment and spell level immunities)

I just discovered Tazok's problem in your game. It's a vanilla game bug for which niether Greater Command nor Emotion were flagged as "hostile" spells. I have fixed it for "Greater Command" in v5, but Emotion's bug had escaped my notice. I just fixed it locally for the next versions. Had you tried any other hostile spell on him from offscreen, he would have shown the proper reaction, but since you cast Emotion, he didn't recognize it as a hostile action. Thanks for drawing my attention to this issue.

Also, please don't forget to reload your game to a saved game before stealing Conster's key. You have said that you wouldn't play cheesily IIRC (if you do not reload, I will sadly lose my interest in your future reports). In general, stealing any "quest related" item is a cheesy action and it's a vanilla game problem that some of those items are stealable. I have already fixed it for several other similar items in v5; and as I said, I just fixed it for this particular item locally.
