Where have you read that? 30x rolling stats on a human fighter showed, that none was below 78 points. That equals two stats at maximum (!) 18 and all others at 10 even for a below average character. That means you lied, kmonster. Begone!

You think everyone plays the game like you, maxes stats to 18. Take a look at the NPCs in Baldur's Gate, none of them has 18 in 2 stats, Jaheira or Minsc have only 1 stat above 15, the pregenerated IWD characters don't have many stats maxed either. You are not a standard player, the game wasn't balanced for players spending days creating characters with 18 in 5 stats. More players just take the first roll to create their characters without lowering/raising attributes and are skilled enough to finish the game with them without dualclassing. Are you really such a weak player that you think the game isn't beatable with rather "normal" characters ? Yoga the Brave will show you how a party you wouldn't dare to continue playing will be victorious at the end ! In terms of party creation Yoga is far closer to the "standard" player than you, remember Yoga's BG1 and BG2 protagonists who vaporized Sarevok and Irenicus with lightning speed or the stats of the first IWD party you can read in the BG2 thread, not many 18s were used.

Second: the BG-series offers an adventage to the player: it balances the difficulty adjusted to the player's level - not a feature IWD has. Third: yoga a lot of times only barely strougled through BG. Fourth: the pre-generated characters (what comes with the game officially) are actually cheated (they have much better stats then you'd have by rolling the characters yourself).

This is just a game, Mates!
Peace, bros, peace!
Do not stand on the war track, please. Remember that we are here not to demonstrate who is smarter but to enjoy friendly chatting and discussion. If someone will feel better if he think that yoga is idiot No any problem to confess I am such person. ha ha Very polite note if You do not mind. I realized that much of You have some scientific interest to RPG gaming. You are ready to discus days and nights that somebody is not correct choosing 18 or 1 stats because ... Very nice. Y'now the brave is not good in some discussions. I created some formation after yr kind advices, grab sword or AK-47 (Caro Capo, I know that western game creators do not used this good weapon in their games. Strange, Master?) and start to liberate the world from the next bad Frank.. OFF Hunvagy, may I very kindly greet You with one nice song: The raggle taggle gypsy by the Chieftains ? I think You can find it in Youtube. Sry, AB has not musical option.. No off Miracle, miracle!! I am forced to do some very extraordinary work to 14 o'clock today BG time. But I protested that even I am the brave this work is practically impossible for such short time period and they agreed to allow me to work to tomorrow morning. --yoga, what is BG time? GMT + 2 hours, mate. Note: As I mentioned in some post here BG is not Baldur's gate but Bulgaria - small, sunny and lovely country of the brave. @twillight Dear Mage, what do You mean by "poor yoga"? The world POOR has many nuances. Good and not so good. TY hard working yoga in the next 10 hours |

2) It is not "powrgaming" to use minimal common sense. 3) The characters in question are not "statistically impossible". +100 thief skills compared to the maximum avaiable points (same level, same race etc.) for example is definitly "cheating". 4) What the *bleep* was that after "Fifth ..."?

2) Min maxing is not minimal common sense. Please refer to that statistics crap up a few posts about 18 on two and 10 on everything else if you have a hard time understanding. 3) As said, DM option. Given that the devs had to be prepared for item hoarding soloing, metagaming munchkins, like a certain mage/thief min maxed and knowing all the enemies by heart. And no, will not get into an argument in this, your whole playthrough reports shows that. And for me, playing a game designed for a party of 6 alone is not a challenge or an achievment, since you can't do it without knowing the location of every loot and enemy. "I don't do the quests, because I don't need xp anymore, and the items it gives is shit" Yeah, no powergaming my arse. 4) This: Quote:
