Actualy, the avatar is robotic, thus sexless. Uhm, this turned out pretty weird. Better consult with someone with a degree in genderism.

And the character is practicaly an excuse to use clubs. None use clubs. Given that in the BG1 part without Enchanted Edition there are absolutely zero magical clubs, and trilogy/weidu implemented the BG2 system on the BG1 game, that's pretty understandable.

---------

Danger: when exiting the Nashkel Mines AIM THE LEADER of the bounty hunters! She casts Hold Person, and it'd be useless to drink Invulnerability Potion even! So drink a STR-buff potion and a Potion of Heroism for hits (at least I did), and aim for the casters first!

In the Bandit Camp I got pretty wounded (ca. 50%), and the head honcho outside decided to charge me while I was busy sniping the archers (with boots of avoidance, girdle of piercing and cloak of ulgoth beard you're pretty much invulnerable aside critical hits). So said, WTH and drank a Potion of Heroism. As I still had more than 40% HP, drank a couple oh healing potions and went in the main tent. And won.

Btw, bought all potions from Nashkel, Beregost and the Friendly Arms Inn at this point... I'm running dry. Technicaly I could use the Elixir of Health potions of course...
Btw,yet to find a wand of polymorph, but aside that the only wand seen been able to use is Wand of Sleep.

As I knew from last time they suck, went and killed the red wizards.
In Gulleykin used an oil of fiery burning against the headhunters.
Oh, before I forget: around the 2nd screenshot the familiar became Permanent Resident of the Backpack. It no longer had enough HP to not be oneshotted. Interesting thing is, it can be a good diversion against Flesh Golems with its ridiculously low AC. And it can stand 1 punch, so can use it.
In Cloakwood Forest II used a potion of freedom (had 3, got lucky), a scroll of prot from poison, and inside the cave an oil of fiery burning.
In CWF IV used an antidote. Not because of the wyvern, but for a random spider. The irony!
At the CWMines got lucky and could separate the warriors one-by-one, thus not used potion.
CWM IV: "death" by the mage. To beat the horrors drink a Potion of Frost Giants Strength, a Potion of Invulnerability, and a Potion of Heroism. This was good, but against the mage you still need another Potion of Invulnerability (that Dire Charm is strong), and a Potion of Freedom (I managed to fail against his Hold Person still, and the only Ring of Freedom can only be aquired if you can't steal if you kill that guy in Ulgoth Beard, but that'd make half the town hostile - so need potion, which I did not know, so did not bring, so I reloaded instead of CLUAConsole, or doing a trip back to the town, which I totaly could have).

Up till now bought every single Healing Potions, and never left an area without dealing with all "local issues" (aside the ankeghs). The result is, only 14 healing potions remained on me. (All temples - Gullykin, Nashkel, Beregost, Firendly Arms Inn - sells 20, High Hedge gives 3.)
Any level of a dungeon counts as "another area", so I was allowed to leave if I felt to. This is just a self-imposed rule what made things a bit spicey. Baldur's Gate itself pose no problem related to this (I assume) aside the doppelganger-fights, and has plenty of new shops to restock the supplies.

This shot is after I reported to Vai after the CWM:



Following the Lothander quest all areas were made accessible. First did the section E, then NE, then W, N, SE, C, SW, sewers. Because of BUG Aldeth never shown up to open the Merchant League of his, and I got suspicious. Yes, he got "stuck" in CW1. Killed him there, and his brother shown up at least. S.
At the Iron Thron's Big Boss Battle I useda potion of Firebreath (found in the building I think) to kill the casters ASAP because they pose a DANGER of stun/hold you. Rigid Thinking is a joke, I either end up running away in Boots of Speed, or whack them like nothing happens.
Did the basilisk area, then finaly the ankeghs. After that NW, where used a Potion of Defense and Potion of 19 STR to beat the things Degrodel had - effects lasted till giving back the quest, so all was good. Damn, I'm behind shedule for a blackout.
No matter, passed Candlekeep, thatbeing an easy area, of course had to use a Potion of 24 STR to get all the good stuff.

WhyI not show my exact exp is, aside that I just didn't want to remove equipment (hey, ring of freedom was in the Iron Fist!), is the strange fact, that the sheetstill counts Racial Enemy. Does this mean even when fallen, I get these bonuses? I checked with Cavalier, and its resistances go away when falling you know.



DANGER: Durlag's Tower, lvl -2: Love casts Dire Charm, and that sux.
