Re: Random Item Property Remover Nerf
I like that idea, but I think people have already voiced concern that it would take away from high level casters that usually provide those buffs. Or hey, if you wanted to think big make a third category of item compatible with Forgies for Wands/Rods which adds certain spells to them. It doesn’t, b...

Re: Random Item Property Remover Nerf
There basically is a baseline of gear that people use for high-end PvM, yes. However posting it here even for discussion about ‘balance’ would most likely constitute spoilers. Suffice to say: Improved Invisibility and Negative Energy Protection are invaluable buffs; pretty powerful at any stage of ...

Re: Random Item Property Remover Nerf
Only tangentially related, do we have a clear baseline that is being operated on? What sort of build/gear are we talking about when we say 'viable' and what sort of context are we talking about? Might just be me, I just like being clear before I talk balance. There basically is a baseline of gear t...

Re: PvM Cleric Build - Cleric 38 / Monk 1 / Rogue 1
Spell DC is 10 + Spell Level + Ability Modifier + Spell Focus. Following this formula, the Implosion DC for a Max Wisdom Evocation Cleric should be 10 + 9 + 20 (50 Wisdom buffed) + 6 (Epic Spell Focus Evo) = DC 45. https://www.blackstonekeep.com/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=3106&p=32429&hilit=Im...

PvM Cleric Build - Cleric 38 / Monk 1 / Rogue 1
Caster clerics are typically one of the strongest types of PvM builds in NWN, regardless of the server environment. In PvP, caster clerics tend to struggle against something like a Sorcerer, as they lack arcane anti-caster options such as Mordenkainen's Disjunction, Spell Mantles, and universal Coun...

Re: PvM Tank Build - Rogue 13 / Dwarven Defender 26 / Fighter 1
Looks good. I’d be tempted to maybe swap 2 points of intelligence over to strength, and ditch Discipline skill in the process. My experience playing a build like this is that encumbrance is annoying, especially when you’re expected to not have strength buffs available due to them being dispelled con...

Re: Umgah Mages and Epic Mage Armor
Unrelated question, but is there a non-cheesy way my higher level characters can heal a good chunk without needing a party member? Pots and heal kits are outpaced by damage taken per round after a certain point. Greater Restoration scrolls. These are quite expensive when purchased en masse however,...

Re: Random Item Property Remover Nerf
If Class restrictions are absolutely out the window, then as Yunim has already suggested, having an Improved Invisibility and Negative Energy Protection option for non-UMD users would be useful (e.g high level Barbs/Monks/Fighters), as these buffs are currently used frequently.

Re: Random Item Property Remover Nerf
Due to the fact that you can basically have unlimited gold and items. The original risk of the wand has been nullified. It is now just a mundane process you have to go through to remove item restrictions. It means you can use stuff that was originally meant to be unique to a class. This isn't a pun...

Re: Random Item Property Remover Nerf
https://blackstonekeep.com/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=3437 Another good thing about the RIPR remover , discussed in this thread when it was brought up, was that it allowed classes that didn't index into UMD or spellcasting [Barbarian, Fighter, Monk] to not have to worry about missing out on what I'd c...

Re: Help me understand this death
My guess is that the death was from a Consitution decrease lowering your HP below 0, that occurred when you equipped the battleaxe. Did you happen to have constitution on your previously equipped weapon or shield? Or perhaps from a spell or rage buff that coincidentally ran out?
