Neverwinter Nights...

[iago]

Well, I beat it.

I cheated on the final fight, in a way.  There are a few tough enemies with the main boss, but I lured them away and killed them individually.  But they were smoking my ass otherwise, so oh well.  When it came down to fighting the final boss, he/she/it wasn't all that tough. 

[iago]

Haha, just for fun I took my character through one of the expansion campaigns and slaughtered everything (including friendly people) easily.  Then I quit that. 

I'm wondering if my level 16 character will be balanced if I try to go through the game on the hardest settings.. I have 30 minutes before I have to leave for school, so I'm going to try it out.

[iago]

Nah, way too easy. 

I wish there was still some difficult gameplay left for my main character, but I'm not sure that there is :-/

You'll stoop low enough to play NWN, but not WoW?

* Blaze sighs *

[iago]

Absolutely. 

With NWN, I create a character, play for a couple weeks, beat the game, and I'm done.  The game ends, I'm happy, the game is happy, and life is good.

I just started Act 3, and I'm about level 12.

In Diablo 2, it's normaly level 12-18 to beat act 1, 21-25 to beat act 2, 30 til about act 5, then 40~ should do you well 'til the end of the game, what are the levels like in Neverwinter Nights?

[iago]

Levels are the same as in D&D.  Levels 1-5 are weakish, level 10-12 are getting pretty good, level 15+ are pretty awesome, 20+ are Godly.  I could kill dragons fairly easily at leve 15.  I also beat the boss of the game pretty easily at level 15. 

And 12-18 for act 1? That's insane.  Except the first time I played, I don't think I ever waited till after level 12.  I remember beating act 1 at level 6, act 2 at level 11, and act 3 at level 16 once.  That was back in the days before the expansion.  I had unique items (which, at the time, could be used at level 1) that gave me +6 to all skills (could have had +8 but I could never find SoJ's).  I was a necro, which meant at level 1 I had 7 skeletons, level 2 I had 7 powerful skeletons, and level 6 I had 7 skeletons + 7 skeleton mages.  My friend played a palidan, and had enhancements to his Thorns skill, so all 14 of my skeletons and my golem had thorns.  That made the game extremely easy :-)

As one of my friends, Cody of Save and Exit has said, Easy PK.

But not for single player...
Currently I pretty much do Act 1 until 11 then rush Act 2 to Act 5. Level in Act 2 until 20. Cow. Baal until you're bored.

The only time I've ever played public games was with the intention of PK'ing.  We had some fun with that, back in the day.  It's a great rush doing a hardcore PK when you're level 30 or so going up against somebody of equal strength.

Worked fine for single player before LoD.  Just don't die and lose all your stuff.  The trick was, before LoD, any level could use uniques, so when your hardcore character died, your next character would inherit all his best items, and would kick ass much faster; of course, that's assuming you're playing with a friend and have corpse loot on, which I almost always did.  The game was much more fun back then, I've come to realize.

Well, we used to do 90's PKing against anybody who'll join.  We had made custom hacks for it too, which was fun.  Untill 1.11 came and killed hammerdins.

I've been playing Shadows of the Untertide.  I'm a level 5 druid, and I plan to level up as a "Shifter".  I believe that I now have the prereqs, so next level I should be able to multiclass :-)

[Newby]

Bumpage.

I'm in act 3; I just solved the trial && got the snow globe for the bitch.

I'm level 12.
