    just a few hours. rest. slay. repeat. right now Imoen is Level 7 mage level 7 thief. Need LVL 8! Kagain is Level 8. Coran is lvl7 fighter and lvl 8 thief. he probably wont get anymore thief points huh? I really really f'd up his point allocation. CHARNAME is lvl 8 fighter. next time around i will totally do a fighter thief or thief mage with him. Edwin is a lvl 8 mage hopefully making lvl 9 soon. when does he get lvl 5 spells? and viconia is lvl 8 cleric. she wont hit any more levels. I havent even started any quests in Baldurs Gate yet lmao.

    I seriously am lacking in equipment though. I hear so many people talking about these awesome magic items. I dont have sh*t lmao.

    I wish i could still sell those ankeg shells. they are all over the place and wont go away! haha

    hey you guys know if i can put some unique portraits in there since i already have a game started? or do i have to start a new game? any ideas where i can just download a sweet portrait pack?
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    Huzzah! Imoen is so hot now lol. Almost makes her irritaing banter tolerable.

    At level 9.

    Shouldn't be a problem. Taerom should still be willing to buy them.

  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    they eventually all disappeared. long process to get gold though. carry a few and go back. carry a few and go back et all. super slow. any other place in the world to get some big gold takes? i need some money lmao. just figured out i could sell and then rebuy a wand to get full charge. fireball anybody?
  • GallowglassGallowglass Member Posts: 3,356
    Farming more ankhegs is probably your best bet for quick gold. You call it "super slow", but it's probably quicker than anything else which is infinitely repeatable.
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    yeah that makes a lot of sense. anyone know if there is a way to re allocate my skill points for my thieves? i really screwed them up

    If you do any scripting at all then CopyGroundPilesTo(S:ResRef*,P:Location*) is your new friend. In this instance, CopyGroundPilesTo("AR1400",[3880.770]) will put them all into a neat stack just north of where Gerde is standing; this command could be added to ar1400.bcs with a trigger of OnCreation() to clean up the area every time you enter it. I don't think it is possible to put ground items into a container via scripts but I could be mistaken.

    Just out of curiosity, how many ankheg shells did you have?

    i cant script on my android phone i dont think.

    and i just went back there. they all disappeared lolz


    console commands would be cool if they let me re arrange my thieves' skill allocations. i really did poor with my selection. (this is my first playthrough)
  • MathsorcererMathsorcerer Member Posts: 3,037
    No worries. I wouldn't be able to script on an Android, either, especially since I don't have one.
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    well i guess im stuck with piss poor skills lolz. i made thalantyr angry too. he wont take the chicken lmao.
  • CrevsDaakCrevsDaak Member Posts: 7,155
    Reminds me when, back to iPad v1.0.2012, I did something like this with the Wyverns, I killed 983 of those creatures (each is worth 1400 XP), taking my Swashbuckler PC (whom had solo'd the whole game by that part) to level 16.
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    LOL. i was in the wyvern cave earlier too but officer vai is gone dammit. cant sell the heads anymore. so pissed. have to do this slow ass ankeg carrying business
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    hey crevs! youre the guy im waiting to hear from on my other thread haha. about hating thalantyr!
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    So uhhh...I killed a lot more ankegs hahaha. So now I wanna get all the shells. That's a lot of gold man. How long will they stay there? Can I get them all? I'm just going from the ankeg spot to the temple to beregost then from beregost to the ankeg farm and start all over. I can only carry 3 per trip hahaha

    If you pick sometime up and then drop it again doesn't it remain on the ground much longer? I can't remember... I thought it was only 24~48 hours and stuff vanishes...
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    Is that true?
  • CaloNordCaloNord Member Posts: 1,809
    Yea, usually around 24 hours and the loot left on the ground should disappear.
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    but i would have to pick them all up and drop them all. there are so many of them lmao
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    i dont know how the hours thing works because between my trips and sometimes having to rest so that the blacksmith is there, totals up to like 28 hours. but i havent picked up/dropped any and have made at least 5 trips and they are still all on the ground thankfully.

    is there a command to put them all in thundersmith?
  • meaglothmeagloth Member Posts: 3,806
    If you get Edwin the spell strength (I think second level.) you should be able to carry a lot more.
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    ooo i have that on imoen. sweet!
  • GallowglassGallowglass Member Posts: 3,356
    @Arutha_Crydee‌ - carry all the ankheg shells into Farmer Brun's house and dump them into one of his containers. They'll keep forever once they're inside a container, so then you can fetch-and-carry to Beregost without worrying that they'll vanish.
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    sweet!!! thanks for the tip player
  • Arutha_CrydeeArutha_Crydee Member Posts: 68
    its like having a savings account lmao. need 4k? go stop over the farmer's house and pick it up hahaha
  • MathsorcererMathsorcerer Member Posts: 3,037


    is there a command to put them all in thundersmith?

    No, but I suppose it could be possible to pick up an ankheg shell, edit the player's script so that it will simultaneously increment a variable and destroy the shell, then edit a script linked to a container in the smithy so that opening the container will decrement the variable and create a shell. The hypothesis is sound but I'll have to see how it holds up under experimentation.
