The Ever Dying Battle Scene Ogre

Anyone else possess the same psychosis as me, in that they have to re-do the opening battle scene where Gorion dies, over and over again until the ogre pops a treasure of decent value (usually a level 2 spell scroll that's worth a damn). I also tend to save the game *right before* Imoen talks to you after the cut scene. That way, if you ever reload that save file (which of course you never do) she'll walk right up to you each time and talk about the attack. I dunno... I'm crazy like that. Flame away, lol.

    Naw. It's too easy to buy scrolls just a little south from there.

    To be a know-it-all arse, those are Shadow Thieves, not elves :3

    Are you wearing Gorion's belt?

    Why does gorion need a belt when he is wearing a robe?

    How can we be sure it is a robe? It's not on his body. Maybe he just has a very weird body shape looking like a robe.

    I always assumed Saervok looted his robe and gave it to Semaj.

    @ajwz: when wearing a robe, a belt gives you somewhere to hang your equipment (purse, scabbard, tools, whatever). Even in real life, monks and suchlike often wear some sort of belt.

    He loots for gorion's robe but leaves the belt of antipode...I don't think so

    Why would he want such a crappy belt?

    To have a belt that matches his new robe?

    Gender confused talking chickens are even crazier.

    And no. I wouldn't reload the start of the game over and over and over again just so I could get lvl 2 spell. If I am that desperate, i'd console one in so I can you know, actually play the game.

    Blah. But that's openly hacking. I used to hack one in and then walk up to his body and put it on it. LOL. Now that's depraved. But I like saving before Imoen talks to you, and there's fog of war that you disturb between the road and Imoen's body, so there's that.

    Sarevok isn't interested in material possessions such as gold. He wants power. POWAH I TELL YA!!!!!

    That's a fowl exploit of game mechanics.

    I found out today you can actually sell Melicamp.

    When he's in your inventory, he's worth around 30 gold! What a deal! Maybe the poor merchant will return him to Thalantyr...
