A New Player Introduction to Neverwinter Nights
« Reply #16 on: August 12, 2011, 08:30:16 am »


               I'm new to the NWN world and I am in need of help of how to give my character a good start. She is a Druid Elf and she wants her trade to be in the arts (specifically painting and vocalism). She just became a citizen of Myon and is supposed to help her kindred learn how to protect themselves in the woods. The issue is that I know nothing about ANYTHING that has to do with those things. ':pinched:'

If anyone can help please seek me out in the game or message me somehow, it'd be greatly appreciated. 

By the way, Genisys, great intro to the game. But I think for noobs (like myself) there should be more focus on how their specific character can become more powerful in the game so they can defend themselves when the time comes. I've died in the forests during my journeys from Myon to Benwick and back many times. <>

Thanks so much you guys!  ':wizard:'

I'd suggest making a quick and dirty version for those of us with smaller attention spans.


Great topic...ooooh, look over there!  Something shiny!

The link in my sig will led you to a place where the fine art of character building can be learnt and improved on.

Some more charcater buidling related resources:

NWN Wiki: a dynamic compendium of NWN lore, always ready to be updated



Old ECB Guild Archive: this is the archive of the ECB Guild on the BioWare NWN Legacy forums. A repository of knowledge and wisdom about all that is NWN character builds. Courtesy of The_Krit.



Epic Character Search Engine: the search engine of the old ECB guild builds' database. Courtesy or The_Krit.



Epic Character Builders Guild downloadable archive on the Vault courtesy of The_Krit.



Pre-epic Character Builds Guild downloadable archive on the Vault courtesy of The_Krit.



Neverwinter Grimoire: This document is a compilation of the Neverwinter Nights, SoU, & HotU rules. It covers most of the rules on character creation and has descriptions of every feat, skill, and spell that is included in the game. It is meant for the beginner and advanced player as a guide and reference. This is the second version of this document. Many things have been added and corrected along with Shifter info. This document uses hyper-linked bookmarks throughout. It is formatted to print front/back. The use of color in the document is meant for ease of reading and will not take up too much color ink.



Epic Character Table: This table shows when each class and Prc recives bounus feats as well as special abilities. It also shows the pre-requesits if the pointer hovers over a class.



Kamiryn's Character Build Calculator: The CharacterBuildCalculator is an Excel Sheet that allows you to create builds very fast and easily. You just select your race, your class (or classes) and the order of leveling. Then the CBC calculates at which level you gain a feat (regular/bonus) and what class feats you get. Also the CBC calculates your hitpoints, your BAB, your attacks/round, your saving throws, skill points, spell casting, bard song and many more things. Finally the CBC generates a text output of your build ready to post everywhere you like. The CBC covers races (feats, skill points, ability modifiers), hitpoints (constitution bonus, toughness, epic toughness), BAB, attacks/round, feats (regular, bonus, class, feat prequisites), saving throws (CON/DEX/WIS modifiers, feats), skill point selection (forbidden skills, cross-class skills, class skills) bonus skill points (human, INT modifier).
