XP’s for turning Branwen to flesh and for other NPC’s joining

Consider giving some experience points for turning Branwen to flesh, and when a deed is done for other NPC’s when joining the party.

Along similar lines, Minsc should perhaps show some excitement when Dynaheir is rescued (but at least XP’s are given).

    As it is, there is already a crap load of XP in bg, without the level cap its quite easy to hit 200 000 xp per character each if you do everything, maybe make it a little more rewarding with an item or something when finishing deeds and things? but i totally agree on your second one, with the minsc excitement and plus branwen should say something about tranzig when you meet him, and kivan having hostility against tazok when you see him, so on and so on

    Good suggestion. A little 500 xp. to save Branwen from the rock. The scroll did cost 500 gold after all.

    @sarevok57

    Yeah I wish. I already made a bunch of suggestions like that over at beamdog but apparently they're not allowed to touch the original NPC's scripts due to contractual issues which are unclear to me but quite frustrating. Apparently they're only allowed to write new scripts for the old NPC's if these NPC's are interacting with any of the new NPC's or if they're in new zone territories or something like that... I don't see how that makes any sense but I'm sure that there's some kind of logical explanation for it. Anyway here's a fan hoping they can override that restriction because it could make for a far more interesting game if it was more interactive.

    It only cost about 100 some for me. :) I just go to the Temple of Helm in Nashkel and buy one lol

    Agreed, I always felt like the XP was missing from reverting Branwen back. I'd be fine with just 125xp or something to mark that you accomplished something :)

    It is an exceedingly minor achievement though :p I think 100 xp max is appopriate.

    On the xp thing, I'd like to see quest exp like you get in bg2, not the one chunk of xp you get in Bg1. Even if it's small XP.

    @GemHound psssst...... i didnt tell you this but you can pick pocket the scroll from the halfling for 0 GP ;)
  • GemHoundGemHound Member Posts: 801
    Nah... I don't like using the points towards pickpocketing. More towards find traps, open locks, and hide in shadows for me.

    even if you only have 20% pick pockets you will eventually succeed after a few reloads (quick save anyone? :) )
  • GemHoundGemHound Member Posts: 801
    sarevok, I play no reloads.
