Game is pretty tough...

Spoilers below-

I started the game with a stalker. I got up to the ravine's 1st floor. After having a small bit of trouble with some of the hobgoblins; I got past them and went to the 2nd floor. After getting there, I fought some skeletons without any trouble. Then i was able to finally rest without someone screwing it up. I go down after exploring and sliting some throats with my stalker; only to find these snake like freaks that just cannot be beaten. I died like 3 times to them. Finally i figured they have one weapon class that can hurt them: Slashing types. It made sense, since they are like yuan tis. Anyway I tried using a +1 axe on the thing. Here's a problem; My guy is lvl 1. How in god's name am i supposed to even hurt the thing, let alone hit it. There's got to be an easier way to do this.

Weird error, cant seem to get the thing started....

Hi, I wanted to try something new; so i decided to give classic adventures a 2nd try.

The last time i tried it, it didnt work because of my own stupidity. This time however, I'm not in the wrong. I got a clean install of both full BG2 and TOB. Then i got the patch 26498. I tried to get the download over to the game directory; but the damn thing wont even extract to the game folder. Every time it does it keeps going from the beginning saying this application isn't right or whatever else. I dont get it, why wont it extract?

Does anyone know what I should do.

5 Thumbs way up!!!!!!

Hi everyone, I just want to say I have been playing baldurs gate both 1 and 2 for years; and out of all of the mods i have played this one is the best. It has revised the classes i have come to know and love the most: thieves and bards. Right now I just installed rogue rebalancing to bg1tutu and it works great. I am playing as a jester after much debate and right now i am having a blast!!!!

So far all of the changes to the classes are very helpful. The only one class that needs a bit of revamping is the assassin. The change to the bounty hunter is great, don't get me wrong, but i think that the change where the bounty hunter can paralyze his opponents is making the assassin obsolete. Its good that the bh can do that, but If i remember correctly the assassin is able to have a death attack, which is similar to sneak attack only however it paralyzes the opponent. I think that to make things more fair for those that like the assassin, I think that something should be added to make it more balanced. Maybe add that on every successful backstab he has a chance to make the opponent go unconscious for a round or so if they don't save vs. death. This should start out with a -1 penalty to your opponents saves and go up by another -1 every 6 lvls. So at lvl 6 it is -2, -3 at lvl 12; etc. Something like that would make things fair because the assassin is supposed to be the king of stealth kills. Yet if the bounty hunter was to hide in shadows, cast paralytic strike and backstab his opponent; your talking about one almost dead opponent. If this is implemented, which I hope it is; then almost every class that was changed will be balanced in its own little way.

I hope that my idea does not sound like i am criticizing in any way, i am only trying to help because like i said this is my favorite mod. Thanks again,

-Dave
