I finished my second run through Neverwinter Nights the other week, with a Barbarian<\/b> called Dello. I started with a low charisma, but its not a good idea to take a low charisma character through this game, a number of story lines are not available and there’s not a lot of compensation, well apart from the extra attributes. Anyway, I cheated his charisma up using Leto<\/b>.<\/p>\n

When talking to Aribeth<\/i> in Port Llast<\/i>, I was a bit short with her and she stopped talking to me. Never mind I was travelling with the amazing Linu who I came to appreciate and she reciprocated, although you have to say “You complete me” Vom!. However when I met Aribeth<\/i> for the final showdown I couldn’t convince her to give herself up even with a bunch of potions of splendour. Sadly the obvious conclusion to that conversation occurred. <\/a><\/p>\n

I focused on travelling with Linu<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I experimented with FRAPS, and created the following video, of his fight with the Fire Giant Chief, posted now on You Tube,<\/p>\n

The final fight<\/h3>\n

I have redone the final fight now, my Paladin<\/i> strategy was to charge in, smack the statue, kill the protection avatar and then kill Morag<\/i>, this led to Sharwyn’s<\/i> death. A similar fate befalls Linu when I try this strategy. With Dello & Linu<\/i>, before entering the penultimate chamber, and using the Henchman AI enhancement<\/b>, I tell Linu<\/i> to preserve her spells, and use her cross bow until attacked. My barbarian, Dello, used Asheara’s amulet<\/i> and bastard sword and shield and basically killed the Old One Cleric and his acolytes by himself. This left all of Linu’s<\/i> spells for the last room. Its important to reset the AI to use spells and then melee. So ask Linu<\/i> to buff up the party, use whatever potions add value including the potion of speed<\/i> and clarity<\/i>. It might be sensible to let Linu<\/i> use Asheara’s amulet<\/i> at this point, although I didn’t. Then, kill a Hand, kill a minion, smash the statue, destroy the avatar protecting from spears, using the Uthgardt Ceremonial Spear<\/i>, (you may have time to kill the avatar protecting her from Maces as well; I had the Ice Reaver<\/i>, and it’ll help Linu<\/i> later), then kill the second hand who will be giving Linu<\/i> a hard time by now, kill the second minion, rebuff with potions and finally kill Morag<\/i>. I also used the Uthgardt ceremonial belt<\/i> which protects against death magic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
