Casting spells on these mounted orcs should be fun! A cool thing, by the way, it is possible to take off the very robe from wizard robes available in the shop, thus receiving a nice outfit a monk would find fashionable.

If, for example, one has taken a Weapon Focus feat in Short Sword, one will find a powerful magical short sword on one of the skeletons, not one of the Frost Giants (giants cannot wield weapons that small). In your playthrough, you record getting a handaxe from the skeleton in question, but it could have been another weapon, depending on feats.rogueknight333https://www.blogger.com/profile/13801106684065769738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8345126191270611325.post-83383658800184306572016-02-01T23:02:01.071-08:002016-02-01T23:02:01.071-08:00Added in the searchable barrel in the lodge, added...Added in the searchable barrel in the lodge, added insets to some pics.. coverage is fairly thorough now, though there may be other secrets for future players to discover.Lilura1https://www.blogger.com/profile/00672152692345839654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8345126191270611325.post-65568269007108286282016-02-01T10:54:19.085-08:002016-02-01T10:54:19.085-08:00I did indeed miss that, yes - added it in, with sc...I did indeed miss that, yes - added it in, with screenshot.<br /><br />The flavor dialogue based on the character is welcome; even in small doses, reactivity like that is always good.. my Wizard benefited from "insight" upon the discovery of Loric's corpse. <br /><br />I liked the nods to spellcasters (the warded chests and doors, the frozen book).<br /><br />Commendable effort.

An item that might be particularly valuable to an arcane caster in fact. There are of course also a handful of special dialogue options that you would not expect to come across in just any playthrough since they are specific to particular classes or other specifics of the particular character played (none of them too important, providing at most a little bonus XP).<br /><br />That is all that occurs to me offhand, though it has been long enough since I gave much thought to this particular module I suppose it is possible I stuck a secret door or something of that nature somewhere and forgot about it myself.rogueknight333https://www.blogger.com/profile/13801106684065769738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8345126191270611325.post-15538393768504244462016-02-01T09:04:47.298-08:002016-02-01T09:04:47.298-08:00Added in the "good ending", polished up ...Added in the "good ending", polished up both posts, added other comments.Lilura1https://www.blogger.com/profile/00672152692345839654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8345126191270611325.post-52278134876834798822016-01-31T18:19:19.048-08:002016-01-31T18:19:19.048-08:00Thanks for the info on the ranged drop.

My skills as an arcane caster need practice, and I may add-in more comments in light of this run.<br /><br />Did I miss any content in this recounting, like secret doors and such?Lilura1https://www.blogger.com/profile/00672152692345839654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8345126191270611325.post-48837433860524998252016-01-31T09:53:04.125-08:002016-01-31T09:53:04.125-08:00I really like some of these screenshots - lots of ...I really like some of these screenshots - lots of dynamic battle scenes.<br /><br />One thing to note, since you are listing the loot gathered at various places, is that some loot is tailored to a player's feats (e.g., take Weapon Focus in a particular weapon and you can expect to find a powerful magical version of that weapon at some point in playing the module) and others are randomized, so not all playthroughs can be expected to produce exactly the same loot. You do note this in the case of the Frost Giant leader, but that is not the only instance of this sort of thing. E.g., if you had taken Weapon Focus: Heavy Crossbow, the giant with a Composite Bow would have been wielding a lootable Heavy Crossbow instead.<br /><br />Five hours was perhaps a pessimistic assessment of how long a playthrough would take, as it rather assumes a player who explores everywhere, reads everything, etc. It is theoretically possible to complete it much faster than that, as amusingly demonstrated in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvgvO1bcHUYrogueknight333https://www.blogger.com/profile/13801106684065769738noreply@blogger.com
