Depends.  Some people will put stuff in their hakpaks to prevent BASE class choices, let alone PrCs. Override will be teh win most of the time, though.


What you speak of interests me and I wish to know more :)

How do you place the classes or PrC's in the Override so that I can use them in certain modules?

Wow. I'm left in awe at the hugeness of that web page. Thank you, Filatus! Now, these PrC's and base classes are usable in user-made Modules, yes? That's what I was aiming for, since I'm not interested in playing the sp-campaigns once more :P

I'm looking at completely overhauling my system, case and everything.  The hardware I want is adding up to around $1700 USD right now.  I figure around the time NWN2 comes out it will be cheaper.


Same here. I don't even have PCI, which means I got to buy new mother board, processor, yadda yadda yadda, and THEN a new graphics card. Thanks goodness I've got the monitor, keypad and mouse?

It will probably cost close to $1000 total if I keep it cheap. It's not like I need the money for something else, like, say, University *rolls eyes*

  As for the rest...wait and see. There's a war on, and a lot can change during, and after, a war. :)
  As we get closer, we'll probably start outlining things in a little more  detail.  As it is now, this campaign is not even over, so we can't really say what Layonara will look like.
 That practically has "Hlint will be destroyed" written all over it  :D Or maybe not. We'll see  8)

I still have an AGP card, but 1 gig of RAM, and the card it's a Radeon 9600. I could barely run Oblivion smoothly at the lowest settings... will I be able to run NWN2 at least with good FPS?

Second topic:

I've had the same problems with running into, shall we say, characters who have a dubious look to them, and having others chide me for doubting their good intentions.  If you see a goblin in the Wastelands, chances are you are shooting, stabbing, or spelling it, yet if you see one in Hlint (just a few yards away), suddenly he's ok?  When I've questioned the presence of Drow, I am one of the few people doing so.  I know that the players here are a tolerant, accepting lot, but our characters shouldn't necessarily be so.  Besides, it certainly makes for more good RP opportunities.

I have no problem with going around with a questionable character, but I'll RP something like that I'm keeping an eye on him.  I may end up trusting him, but it'll take time.  I suppose there are those characters who automatically trust everyone, but then why are they going around trusting this goblin, but killing that one?

Think of it this way: if you ran into someone dressed as a Nazi stormtrooper, who told you he was a good guy and wanted to go to a synagogue and meet with the rabbi, would you automatically trust him and think his intentions were pure?

DHF



I know what you mean regarding the drow (Or any of those particular races), but thankfully I've had a very interesting dialogue with a drow friend and two elves, one of them a priestess of a good-aligned god. She demanded that the drow proved to her that he wasn't bad, and thus he summoned a lantern archon. Not completely satisfied, she cast a spell to check on his deity, and that gained her trust.

The last analogy doesn't precisely hold for DnD, since Nazi's weren't a race, but a group of people who thought alike. In DnD, someone who looks like a drow doesn't neccesarily mean he is evil. Still, I get the idea of what you are saying  ;)

Just to point out a trend, there's been a run on half-giant, drow, and tiefling characters in the last week or so.  If lots of those subraces continue to be requested in a short period of time they will likely be put on hold for several months.


Even if the people who request them provide good stories for them?  :o

This really should not happen. If you are deleting a character then everything on the character should go as well. Doing so, regardless of the 'RP spin' put on it is muling.  Sorry.


Got it. No worries, Leanthar, I just wanted to at least try and look for a way that someone gets a bit of the gold that my character has. You can delete this thread if you feel like it's occupying space :P

Even after all this time I'm still in that same position.  "Cleansing X area of Y evildoers" gets so old its irritating, but even in groups it has to be done so often to gain that next level you want to puke.  I usually end up sitting in Hlint until I log off because everyone's talking about plots I have never heard of, or the wrong combination of people is around to do anything.  i.e. no cleric/fighter/rogue(for Storan's)/etc. . .  A lot of times, anywhere groups want to "go" involves at least 1-2 hours, and I don't always have the time to join them since travel time to a lot of places can be upwards of 30 minutes.

Roleplaying is nice, but *just* sitting in Hlint all the time gets old.


That's my fear, too. Today I did a GM quest (Great quest, by the way), and it took about 3 hours to do.I'm afraid I won't have the time to do things like that all days. Especially if I get a job for the summer. I wonder what I will do when my levelling depends on GM quests... roleplaying at Hlint forever sounds like something that will get old, as you say.

Creighton - 5/6/2006  8:10 PM

Hey, I'm pretty new too, but I've made some great friends so far (some VASTLY higher in level than me).  Still, I know where you're coming from.  Trying to RP a paladin the way he's supposed to be, I'm not one to go up and attach myself to groups or what not (a paladin would find that imposing).  On the other hand, just from having conversations with folks, I get invited on a great many outings ("to root out evil" and the like; fantastic IC reasons for a paladin) with high level people, and the experience (both the points and the time spent with new friends) is really good.

I'm on most nights, usually between 2130 and 2300 CST.  For a rogue and a paladin to team up will take some interesting RP, but I'm sure we could hash it out.  Look up Creighton...be happy to play with you.:)


Thanks. I'll try to remember your name if I say you :)

I've read waaaay to many suggestions about "Why don't you roleplay, too?", and while I understand that they are good-intentioned, let me assure you that I like roleplaying, and I'm not obsessed with being the number one player in matters of levels or something like that  ;)

Yes, I know that I can roleplay with others if there isn't a buddy to hunt stuff with. Yes, I know that I can craft stuff, but trust me when I tell you, it's frustrating to gather resources only to have them go to waste after trying to craft the most basic items (Like cloth).

Still, the comments posted recently have given me time to change my perspective, and so I'll focus more on roleplaying, rather than always being out there, hunting and slaying critters. I can't participate in most events, mainly because I don't have the time to remain in my pc for so many hours in a row, either because my siblings come by and want their turns, or simply because my eyes and body hurt like... a lot, if I play for too long.

Once more, thank you for the help. It's useful  :)

Thank you all for the information; sadly, I've been doing all of that, even the skill selection. Now I wonder if I should begin a new character, so that it isn't that hard to solo...

In any case, I still appreciate the feedback. If I decide to create a new character, which class would you say that is good at soloing? I just don't want to be doing nothing at all while I wait for people to come and have adventures with me  :(

My PC Ayreon is stuck behind the walls of Hlint.

What should I do?


Other than try calling a GM and telling others about the problem with the Tell command? Nothing. Sorry I can't be of more help, that's all I think you can do. Hope it gets solved.

As i was just looking at the calender like i do most days , just notice a quest Minerva is running that would be great for you , you get the chance to gain the Exp that you want , Its a great chance also to RP and meet new people  to hunt with in the future ....

Check it out and see if it fits you time frame ,

Mumbles


Thanks for the head's up. But I didn't sign myself up for that one since it says "party limit 10", and there's way over 10 people already there  :o

But, if it seems like I can participate anyways, I'll gladly sign up.

You'll get used to it. All the characters i've had on here get to about level five and from there on it's a bit of a slow process to level 10. But once you get used to it you'll realise it's better that way.

Don't feel too bad about not being able to solo either, yes it's harder as a Rogue, but it's not particularly easy as a fighter character either :)


I sure hope I get used to it. It's just not nice to keep asking other people of higher level to help you out, since there's no one of your own level range to hunt with.

Why is it "a slow progress to level 10"? What happens then :O

It's dissapointing that I can't solo, at least to some extent. Especially with so few people around my level available to go hunting (Most of the time I'm forced to ask someone with a rating of Overpowering or Impossible to aid me). Seems like I should wait for people to appear so that I can go out and hunt. Or at least do something else meanwhile. I don't feel like bugging high level folks with "wanna hunt slimes with me today?" all the time  :p

About the game controlled characters, you just need volunteers :) Normal players who are there to help people with the basics (even though most are pretty self explanatory)
About the people "singing in the rain", well... they need to be mroe concentrated in their characters and surroundings, I suppose.
