Do you have Matt Stairs in your house?

Although I am aware that I say this every time she goes away, and I usually end up in the pub, the duchess has gone away for the weekend, and I'm planning on using this time to play a lot more NWN.  
I am ready to leave the city core in Waterdeep - but which way should I head? I am tempted to go to the Peninsula first so that I don't have hordes of zombies attacking me straightaway, but I'd be interested if anyone recommends going somewhere else on my first venture into the unknown. In fact, I've just remembered that I have not yet bought maps of these districts so I have to remember who sells them. Damn! This could take some time, going around and talking to everyone.  |
spoiler(highlight to read):
There are a few generic merchants who sell the maps-- Mizzenmast Mercantile in the Peninsula (right next to militia HQ), plus I think the merchant in the Trade of Blades.
|
Seeing as you're a level 3 pally, you should have Turn Undead. With that, the zombies aren't as much of an issue. Wouldn't hurt to get a bit stronger first, though.
Some stuff that I think is guaranteed to be there...
spoiler(highlight to read):
Some chest in the bottom of the prison has a +1 version of whatever weapon you've focused in. Also, there's an Armor of Comfort (AC 6+2, reduced weight, Heal+2) in the middle sarcophagus in the Warrens.

Oh yeah, I found Neversummer and started up a half-elf Ranger char. I decided to eschew dual-wield (i.e. DEX 14  ) and pump as much as I could into STR. For the hell of it, I made basically the same char (Iskander) in Folderol.

The Peninsula is now done, and I've moved on to the Blacklake district. I went into the Hodge estate to gte the first of the artworks and had some pretty incredible fights.
There are loads of traps about, and although my character can spot almost all of them, neither she nor Daelan can removed them so I just have to stand on them. Occasionally I haven't been careful enough when he's following me, and he's set them off, but I still get hit! I've used so many potions that the powergamers would be ashamed of me. 
In one room there were tonnes of guards, and some evil buggers with bows, but I eventually won by retreating into the store-room next door, letting a few in and then closing the door behind them, massacring them and letting a couple more in each time. This is disgraceful and cheaty, but damned effective!

I usually wait till last to do that area. If you are really hurtin' go to the graveyard area next- the area with the zombies.

For more laughs, a WOTC thread discussing the Hulking Hurler prestige class in 3e. Basically, a Hulking Hurler can throw any medium (for him) load, so these people try to max out the load he can throw. Also, a Hulking Hurler can choose to ignore one limitation. This is the obvious conclusion:
quote:
Well, I mean, if you're Colossal, and the Hulking Hurler gets to 'pick and choose' the limitation he wants, he can pick weight as the limitation to ignore. He can then Throw the Universe (treating the universe as an improvised weapon for a -4 to hit penalty, if my memory holds up). Since he is Colossal, and there are no more size categories above him, it's perfectly within his limits in terms of size.
If that's the case, congratulations. Infinite mass = infinite d6 + Str modifier damage, for an average damage of infinity.
And the humourous thing is, a frenzied berserker would still be standing |
And from there the thread becomes a discussion of what it would take for a properly maxed HH to destroy a planet.
