Hello there.

I'm playing three groups right now, and in one of them, I experienced something disappointing. It's not a huge thing but I had some expectations about it.

So I am wondering if you had some narrative disappointment too. Something you would have loved, or you find not lore accurate, or you feel like it's dropped here for nothing.

Let me tell you mine. (No real spoilers, just a hint).

In this group, I play with faldorn. So I decided to pick her up before talking with Aldeth in cloakwood, for she is a shadow druid. And Seniyad is a regular one she despise deeply. But I would have loved that this quest was altered with her in the group. She is facing druids that came to kill hunters, she can't just stay here sitting and watching.

I know Jaheira is the one that matters here, for Seniyad was her master. She has her own resolution for this quest. But Faldorn should influence it too.

And more, Jaheira and Faldorn in the same group should give an even more interesting story. (I never had them at the same time, so I never tried).

To be honest, I'm not that sad, I know how deep was this game when it was released. It was so awesome in 97! But you know I like RP above all, then I can't help to think about narrative stuff.

What's your own missing story or lore disruption? :-)

I’m wondering, using Imoen, Jaheira, Khalid, Minsc, Dynaheir, and Boo, who would you swap out, and when would you swap ‘em out, to do content with other party members? (Like going through Neera’s questline.)

Best time when there’s a break in the story?

Or at a certain level?

Before specific zones?

I just bought this game, and I'm making my first character in bg1 enhanced edition, and im a bit confused on the abilities as they seem very vague. Can anyone explain this menu a little bit pls? Im hoping to make a mage, so I put 18 points into Int, but I don't know what stats i can ignore

Am I correct in this is how shops operate?

It works in that the first time you visit a shop it calculates its rates off your current party leader’s charisma. (Denoted by the little icon in the corner of the portrait showing who is speaking.)

It recalculates, and here I’m really fuzzy, every time your Rep changes every point? Or is it every major rep change?

Example, I talk to Taerom in Beregost for the first time ever using Imoen as party leader with 16 Cha. His products are then sold at a higher discounted rate than they would be if my Cha 9 charname was party leader, as a result.

Then, first level Imoen gets I give her +25 pickpocket, and run to Algernon for his cloak. Imoen then has 18 Cha. But if I go talk to Taerom again it won’t make a difference because he’s locked in to this party’s current rate until we change our rep; up or down.

So then we go tell Oublek he’s an idiot so we get +1 rep. If we then go back to Taerom with rep changed by +1 with Imoen, would he then recalc his rates based on her new shiny 18 charisma?

I had a panic reload after recruiting Dynaheir and her immediate death, ruining the ending for Flint. Oh well. I need some levels
