There was a couple of issues reported in the last two or three weeks, I will start looking at them this evening, hopefully we'll figure everything out until the end of the week. Stay tuned. Couldn't get to it earlier, too much RL stuff happening.

QUOTE 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. To forge the blade,you have to defeat Supreme Leader first,he has another silver sword… |

No, that was actually a bug that was reported to me recently. I've fixed it locally and will upload the patch until the end of the week. |

Good lord... what a fight demogorgon is, but after more reloads than I care to admit, some BE potions, a few wishes for rests, and many many greater restorations, victory is mine!

Those minions are beasts. They take so long to go through. Indeed a cleric here is almost mandatory.

Congratulations bulian! We made demogorgon probably the most(or at least one of 3, well things depend on playing style and party composition) difficult encounter in IA, it might be frustrating, but satisfaction you get when bringing the finishing blow is immense!
At which levels did you defeat him if I might know?  And judging by your post, you fought Demogorgon too Iroumen, right? Did you manage to win? And how are your feelings on the balance of this fight, guys? This post has been edited by SparrowJacek: Jul 22 2016, 04:56 PM |

QUOTE When Mazzy has used Strength of Arvoreen (lvl 16 -> Strength to 19) and then gets Phosphorus, no change in Strength value (still 19). Intended behaviour? Kind of. They both use the same opcode that sets strength to a value, not increments it. This is why it happens. We could come up with something but why would you need her str when you have phosphorus?

We could come up with something but why would you need her str when you have phosphorus? Thats true. I just noticed during the 'Improved Crystal Shard' fight. I forgot about the weapon resistances of the Amber Golems and had to redistribute my >= +3 weapons. |

A question again:
Is the Shade Lich in Spellhold immune against Disrupt Undead (lvl 7 spell)? His defenses are SI:Necromanncy and Spell Turning. I use 2x RRoR and the lich recasts SI:Necro, so one more RRoR, but i have no luck to hurt him with Disrupt Undead. (e) Ah ok, maybe his MI is the problem... (e) Remove Magic did the trick. But his 3xADHW did hurt. Next try... This post has been edited by Azoth: Jul 26 2016, 07:04 PM |

I finished Demogorgon at the end of ToB at level 33+. I tried it several times before that but was unable to cope. I needed barbarian essence to keep my warriors alive and a cleric with many greater restorations and mass cure.
Difficult, yes. Does it need to change? I don't know, it is an end-game type fight so it should be tough. |

I also fought demo right before EDE. I think completing the fight in chapter 7 would be quite difficult - the extra levels in TOB seem quite necessary. The healing requirements of the fight are what make it so intense.

Need some advice against the Librarian
 Cat o'Nine Live is not a problem, but sometimes annoying because of dispelling my buffs or hold/confuse when attcking my party and not my summons. Bookworms last only one/two rounds. What usually happens: 3x RRoR so his defense is down then 1x Disrupt Undead(dont have more remembered/only 2 lvl 7 slots) and waiting til his first PfMW is down. Then a couple of hits before PfMW is up again (lich has 4 or five of these). Not possible to interrupt. Surviving Cont:3xADHW and Dragon Breath. Then Comet and 99% a chunk... Can i do something against his PfMW? Does any1 have a reliable strategy? Focused Altar was much easier... |

You can survive a Comet as well. You need stoneskin and fire protection. It does crushing and fire damage, respectively.
What's your party? |

Party is:
Necro, B9/M, R/C, Jaheira, Mazzy, Valygar Already had him a couple of times to Near Death but never managed to finish him. Once the bookworms healed him and he managed to renew PfMW. Since then they are always my first target. Btw, Protector's Mental Equilibrium removes confusion but not the "stars" above the character |
