Levelling up in Folderol is pretty easy, but I know of only two ways to get from Level 1 to Level 40 on Folderol in so short a time and one involves massive cheating (DM dropping 39 levels on you) and the other involves using a massive exploit that a few of us found about a week ago (and no, I'm not telling you what it is! ).

As for me...

spoiler(highlight to read): Join a party with a newly created character, then Friend-Stone-teleport to the character while he's on Captain Jack's Ship. Boom, 1000 free EXP. This can be repeated an infinite number of times. As for possible fixes: After landing from Captain Jack's Ship, you get a plot token. If you have the plot token, talking to Jack on the ship just teleports you to the Gypsy Camp. Or, if you want to be evil, instead of adding 1000 EXP, have Captain Jack set your EXP to 1000. Removes the exploit, and punishes cheaters.

edit: heh. Seems like Alerbic fixed it already. Anyway, my suggested method of punishment still could work.

Yeah, that's not even the exploit I was referring to. There's another one... even worse. I only know about it because I walked in on two players using it and they admitted to me what they were doing and how it's done.

It's in a rather well travelled area and If you see it being done, it should be apparent that something is a little fishy. I'm honestly surprised that a DM or Alerbic hasn't caught one of the ones doing it yet. Heck, I tested it out recently by building up a new halfling fighter character to level 7 in less than 5 minutes.

I half suspect that Alerbic or one of the builders put it in on purpose in order to level up their own characters quickly without the need of a DM or the cheat codes. On the other hand, it might just be a stupid mistake by a builder who hasn't caught their own error yet.

I left Blacklake on the advice of Diss mainly, and proceeded to the Beggar's Nest. This is almost done. Well, when I say almost, I mean that I've just cleared the warehouse and the clan HQ, but now have to go and fight in the vaults, which presumably leads to the graveyard. I don't think that I'll be able to finish it this week, but if I keep my fingers crossed and my girlfriend sweet on Wednesday evening then I may get another shot at it.

I started Folderol tonight; the module looks fun but it's lonely after City of Heroes.........no one else came on in the 90 minutes or so that I played.

Btw I have a question. I thought I'd try the Kukri master build from the official site, but the guy that sells weapons at the start doesn't have one. Is it worth pursuing this build, or should I reroll? I've already taken Kukri and Exotic feats.

Stay with it - you can get some good kukris from other shops and from some encounters. The starting shop has a rather limited stock - for the normal CRPG reasons, y'know

Well my badminton club was on holiday last night (not that they told me last week - mutter mutter ) so I got to play a little more NWN. And things did not go well. I met a poisonous dire spider, and couldn't defeat it with just brute force, so I need some help. Should I just go back to the temple of Helm and stock up on lots of antidote before fighting it normally, or is there a better way to take it on?
I also couldn't understand why, in the fight with Drawl, my longsword was ineffective. I only got his weapon from his remains, so it's not as though he had super armour on. I'm not too bothered though, because I just stood back and allowed Daelan to bash the heck out of him while I stood by and applied healing as required.

IIRC, Drawl has stoneskin active when you come across him. I think Daelan may have gotten the stoneskin effect to collapse.

I don't remember Drawl. If it's the gang leader I don't think I killed him, since I did the yuan ti bit first.

If the spider is that one in the graveyard dungeon he is a pain. Buff up and buff Daelan up and send him in first. Antidotes wont help as much as barskin, bless etc.

That's what I'm planning to do. I may well take an antidote or two along anyway so that I can heal him afterwards. The duchess is going out this evening and my five-a-side football has been cancelled so I can play through the rest of the vaults (I hope).
I wanted to find a door to hide behind, but that could be quite tough to do if I remember the layout of the dungeon correctly so I may well just have to wait and try out brute force again. I always like to move my character behind tough enemies while Daelan takes the brunt of their attack.

I recently played a Paladin when going up against Drawl (since getting HotU, at least)....

WOW!

Do you have any idea how fast Drawl goes down when you fight him with a Paladin using the "bless weapon" spell?

Considering that Drawl normally kicks my lousy butt when I face him at roughtly level 4 or 5 (at most), playing a Paladin and kicking his sorry butt while making it look easy was a really really cool.

I'm afraid that I couldn't tell whether it was a he or a she as it bit off Daelan's head, but I'll try to have a better look next time.
Is there any point to lugging one of those fire beetles' bodies around everywhere? Are they good for anything?
Cool loot sounds good to me though.
