[QUOTE="Fladian, post: 123784, member: 5833"] The picture is officially made for Solaufein (sp?), but I like it so much that I prefer to use it myself. ^^ Though the expression in the picture is about the opposite of what I am supposed to show. :P Halberd +6? I don't have anyone who can use a halberd because there is a heavy lack of good (or decent) halberds in the game. The only two good halberds I could name are the [i]Dragon Bane[/i] (I thought it was called that) and [i]the Wave[/i]. However, there are far more better two-handed swords than that. And if you ask me, there are better one-handed weapons than all halberds together. The ToB armor and weapons look quite poor, in my opinion. ^^ Anyway, because of a lack of quests, I decided to start on Watcher's Keep. I finished the first two levels of the dungeon, but going any further will be too painful. Therefore I just booked my trip to Spellhold. I am leaving to the [i]lil' island[/i] after one more quest of [i]Mr. Linvail.[/i] Personally, I didn't want to go to Spellhold yet, but I am out of quests out here. I even already defeated Kangaxx (with Minsc's help though). I couldn't remember the normal Lich form being so incredibly weak... or maybe it's the bastard sword +6 to Undead that made him die so easily... whatever it is, the demi lich didn't stood much of a chance to Minsc (armed with a bastard sword and a ninja-to +4), Haer'Dalis, (armed with a powerful long sword I mentioned earlier and a short sword +4) Mazzy (armed with a short bow) and my Wizard Eye (and several other summons), as I would have hoped for. His ring is a pleasant one to have right now. I was in dire need of anothe ring that could regenerate a bit. Anomen and Haer'Dalis seems to get too much damage lately. Though I am not surprised about Anomen (being on the front line and all), I am curious about Haer'Dalis. Perhaps because of his dual-wield that he receives too much damage, though that doesn't make much sense, considering I do the same. Perhaps it's the fact that he doesn't wear any armor... (I don't call robes armor ^^) Regardless, Anomen now has a 127 resistence to fire, making him completely immune to it. He also has a nice 100 resistence to electricity and 50 to cold. He can expect to be the target man of my fireballs. :P I can't wait to have Imoen join the party. I forgot that it could be hard with only a half-decent mage (15 intelligence). Both Dragons are goners by now. One by the hand of Viconia (Finger of Death) and one by the glorious strike of Anomen, doing exactly 1 damage. :P *uhhum* All liches didn't really prove to be a threat either. With an exception of the Gate-Lich (Gate district, which I fought quite early on), I can't recall using anything anti-Undead such as a Sunray.
