TS 7.04, 14. Time Options

[trufa]

I reached TOB, in TS, but before I release the report, I have a question

It is normal in this version, that at the very early beginning Yoshimo disappeared, and Kachiko stayed?(He was at the thanking ceremony at Suldanesselar) I hope it isn't some incompatibility bug, because in that case I wouldn't receive Yoshi's equipped items. If it is normal, when, and where can I get YOshi back? He isn't at the previous normal TS-TOB appearing point (Saradush tavern)

Ihad also Ascension, UB, and some other RR component, but I uninstalled them, hoping Yoshi would stay.

[trufa]

On my many tries, I found an etry at the start of TOB
"Yoshimo died, TOB cannot import Yoshimo to TOB."

I tried everything, even reinstall BG2, even reinstall windows(the save copied to USB-drv), but it was unreparably ruined (cannot fix this entry), so, in this time, only a few words of the experiences:
Party was the old Yoshi (bohu),Kachiko,SIme,Jaheira,Imoen, at now COnjurer (hum,mal,NG)prot


Kachiko:With her "character" everything was all right, only a new recognition: The ultimate weapon pair to her is Dakkon +5 dualwielded with Belm. The one dakkon blade gives the necessary AC, and spellbonus, and Belm the 5 standard attack/round. Necessary things to this: 5*Katana, 1*(least) scimitar, 2*(least) dualwield, and Restored dakkon blades (Bdash weidu), and true Grandmastery (EoU, or G3Tweks) mods

YoshimoHis new Katana isn't +3 weapon. I can't hit with it FIre Elementals, which requires +2 weapons, and they aren't have 100% slash res., because Blade of Night was fine.

SImeHer joining XP was more or less fine (+100kXP). The following banters didn't triggered automatically: 1, 31SPOILER!

(the one, which speaks of the earlier (BG1)"girlfriends", which is very cool by the way, that it has a reminder to the BG1 NPC romnces)(I readed in the d file)

, 37SPOILER!

(the first CH6)

, so I must speed up the initially banter via CluaingSPOILER!

( SetGlobalVP_SImeROmance,1

), and skipped 31,37SPOILER!

via sk, affects, readed here in a SIme TOpic

. The following encounters triggered "almost" perfectly SPOILER!

vampires,the flowery dream, Aran, Dragon (It is possible to keep the Dragon' s gold, and his club/mace? (I haven't TIme to id that item)

, and received the item, in the middle of ROmnce SPOILER!

Suna BLoom

. The only very minor problem was, that Srgnt NAtula appeared in one of the Encounter Areas SPOILER!

Flosery dream

, so it Requires the some micromanagement, which has the another NPC quest appearings (for example Dermin in the island on a very earlier version (6.??).
The first HLA-s was again too early, the first at 2.25 M XP, the second at 2.7 M XP, the others was fine.

Other additional things
Aran's RIng (RIng of NIri Alud) could be possible to wear only to Sime, and it's lockpicking boost ability replaced with some AC, Save, or some resistance bonus, to phrase it's protective ability
The Elemental quest Areas monsters needed some revising to work out some better strategies, not only SPOILER!

buy max 5 prot from petrif scroll, memorize max 2 slow poison, and one skin/"skinnable" players after the talk to Najoki, and go hack&slash

In the second Area, at the sksleton part, could be thrown a Nakanishi Lich with some random high lvl (7-9)scroll.
Again in te second Area, it wasn't possibly a good idea to remove kiss the Gloomfrost, and keep Scarab of Goodwill, because the Kiss is more often used (every warrior, and thief, who can't take elemental resistnce, uses in a backup weapon), as Scarab (only archers uses with 14-16 Dexterity (archer Minsc ), because they need the gloves slot to the Bracers of Archery)
In the third Area, Masaki needs serious elemental, and magic damage resistances (give him the gloomfrost to use as a backup wepon???)so he (and the other guards in the room) couldn't killed by only one mageSPOILER!

(only buff a death ward and a prot mg weap., uses a ring of free action)Spelltriggered 3 Sunfire in the first round, and 2 another non triggered Sunfires in the following 2 rounds

In the Arena it could be prevent somehow to setting traps, and/or remove buffs when entering to the Arena, because SPOILER!

again it was too easy, or cheesy???)to do the first duel with a superpotioned YOshi, and set 7 traps, which instantly killed Michio (the monk)

Or, maybe create an "improved tactical" component which contains this ideas
