They should emerge when the big troll gets closer to lower health. Maybe it's just a coincidence. There's no scripting that connects mage's unconsciousness with the appearance of trolls.

Yes, most probably a coincidence.

How did he become immune exactly? Emotion?

Hmm...it's some time ago.
Out of memory: i fired an Emotion and he fell unconscious. Then i was busy killing the rest. Pirate Coordinator used Absolute Immunity or something similar and i attacked the unconscious one.

Another question:

Is something changed in Jaheira's quests and romance?
Baron Ployer's curse is dealt with and Xzar got what he deserved, but Jaheira is not summoned away from
the party to the Harper Hold even if i rest for a decade. Im trying to get the Harper's Pin to forge the Ward before Spellhold.

Not intentionally, no. Do you have a save so that I can check the control variables for the romance?

I see that you play the ToB version. Did you install romance fixes from EoU?

[bulian]

My guess is you have a male protagonist and are in early stages of romance - try waiting ~4 days

Acid shields trigger off each other causing infinite dmg loop. Had several game crashes with Jaheira wearing shadow dragon scale/acid shield vs Chak (both having 100% immunity to acid) in the Samia encounter before my poor clan hunter lost the battle.

I guess we missed that, thanks. Will fix soon.

Yes romance fixes from EoU are installed.
Let me try first what bulian suggested. If Jaheira's quest still not continues, i'll send a save.

Some more questions

1. The Quick Item Slots of my B9/M were disabled when silenced during the fight against the Shadow Dragon Thaxi. See screenshot. Is this intended?
2. Is a Spear +3 (not Kuldahar) available before Spellhold?
3. Can i find Adamantine Dust somewhere in chapter 3?

For jaheira romance. You need to sleep in the wilderness and it will continue.

[bulian]

There used to be a +3 spear at the beginning of spellhold but it wasn't there in EE/6.2, and I've yet to come across a +3 spear naturally (just about to start WK dungeon). You can forge one at Cromwell's though. The Harmonium Halberd, enchanted weapon spell shortsword, Clan Hunter Spear (since you have Jaheira), and/or thieve's guild short sword (you can skip this IMO for the longer term gold) are enough to get you through Spellhold, IMO. There are nice spears that you can get in Sahaugin City and in the drow city.

The encounter requiring adamantite dust is much more difficult than Samia IMO but is quite doable immediately in Ch 6 with proper buffs and tactics. I wouldn't worry about the dust until then.

No, this doesn't help. I'm somewhere stuck between LD12 and LD13.

Critto, can you please have look. Savegame sent.

LD12: This isn't a love dialogue or anything. Some bandits appear
and take Jaheira hostage. They will ask you for your valuables.
However, don't give them it. Instead tell them that you will be
their hostage instead. When Ertof Dand says, 'I think I got the
gist of it lassie. Well now she does not seem to think much of
your plan. What say you now valiant one?'

LD13: Again, this is not a love dialogue but a woman called Meronia
appears and tells Jaheira to follow her. When Meronia tells
Jaheira to make her farewells quick and that she will not be gone
long choose option 1. Jaheira will leave your party for a while
until she finds you again.

Ah there.. hmmm. Did you try visiting places you have been before. Sometimes the messenger gets spawned out if sight and if you move too fast you miss her.

AFAIR, yes. Doesn't make sense for healing potions though, I guess.

Is a Spear +3 (not Kuldahar) available before Spellhold?

Which one?

Can i find Adamantine Dust somewhere in chapter 3?

No.

I will take a look during the weekend, but this might be the issue. EE 1.3 has horrible pathfinding.

[Hideous the W...]

So I'm trying to forge the Githzerai Blade and I have all the required items but Cromwell won't give me the option to forge it. He doesn't mention the Illithid Serum but I see in the readme that you need it so after leaving the Underdark I went back and got some. I also forged the Silver Sword and have Dakkon Zerths Blade, Solemn Duty and Darkened Glory. I have Brine potions, permanency and memory boosting scrolls as well. Not sure what's up.

[critto]

Remind me please which game/version do you have? What does Global("Iadakkonforged","GLOBAL") reply in console?

[bulian]

It looks like the spell "recast vital energy" stops working if a mage PC turns evil at the end of SoA. Is that intended? If so, why?

[critto]

Looks like it is intended but I can't really answer to the "Why?" question. It was designed by Sikret, not by me. Perhaps because only a good-aligned mage is supposed to have access to it. This could easily be avoided, though, if you wish to.

[bulian]

Thanks, Critto. Some of the elements in the mod's design are rather quirky to say the least. I will try to finish the present run duly penalized. The script of interest, as I'm sure you know, is s!spy4.bcs.

TOB version.

OK. It gives me
