Unfortunately, using maxed IGMS and TS together can be something of a squeeze with only 4 total level 9 slots and no rests once getting to the final area. Not hard to overcome with all the other spells the toon would have (and the buggy nature of the final encounter), though.


He'd have to generally use Time Stop + Empowered/Silenced/Normal IGMS, yeah.

Also, the final encounter can be severely broken by a single level 8 spell.  That's all I can say for fear of spoilers.

Unfortunately the camera movement is quite annoying lol.


Oh, don't forget you can push down your mouse wheel and move the camera with that - that's the easiest way to move the camera.

               Wait, I didn't know that! And, what do you mean by "push down your mouse wheel and move the camera with that"?I know that rotating the scroll wheel will zoom the view in and out, but what is supposed to happen when one presses the wheel down? My mouse supports the scroll wheel button, but I haven't used it in NWN. I would be happy to change the camera tilt without using the page up and page down keys.

Actually, I just tested and it doesn't look like holding the pressing the scroll wheel does anything in NWN for me. (Outside of the game, it does things like put the pointer in auto-scroll mode.) Is there a special setting to enable the scroll wheel button in the game?

               Here's a quick video showing what I mean and my current settings as far as I can tell:

               You have to move your mouse while pressing the scroll wheel. It's really convenient, but slow at high resolutions, even with sensitivity settings at max.

               High resolution also makes a lot of the components of the UI tiny - I tend to play on a lower resolution as a result.  So maybe that's why I've never had that issue.

               Ah, that is very good to know and will come in handy. I'm glad to still be learning new tricks after all this time. :-)
