               playing right now, seems quite promising, boots of speed, heals, but can not get past the first level because it has a bug that takes me back to jova north, when I have to enter the guild hall nocturne. Already got the key and the quest at city hall. Can you help me?

               Yes I can. You are trying to access a clan hall. These areas are restricted to only members of the respective clan. The Nocturne 'Castle' you are looking for is beyond south Jova. It is considered an epic area with bosses. You would be much better off to start on Critter Isle and then move through Jova Woods.

Tried it and found out you don't use my unofficial patch when I first fired an arrow from bow. Since you claim to fix any bugs players find out, I recommend you to try it. It would also helped with the big lags created by luring and massing many monsters via aoe spells which is how I exped with wizard yesterday, everytime I lured a pack of 30+ monsters it made quite a long lag due to the bug in AI. PM me for details if you are interested.

anyway, since you havent posted link to forum, I will report issues I found here:
1) loot in sewers/mage mansion is godly, i found +2, +3 weapons even +5 armor for paladin, while in tougher areas there is usually very crappy loot both from monsters and chests. Was able to buy gear for lvl 20 for money from this loot in first area I found which seems not intented.
2) east area transition back to vegepygmys in gorgon area doesn't work
3) when teleporting to the town monsters chasing player often run into corner of current area - they should stop and wait at the spot PC disappeared imo
4) deers in woods just stay and wait to be slaughtered, looks quite lame really...:innocent:

Thanks. Glad you are enjoying it. It had been retired for some time and for no apparent reason, I just decided to repost it. The forum is pretty old, but its still up and available. Maybe one day it'll return to its glory of being full all the time.

               A couple of feedback points:

is there a buff rod available?  maybe I missed it from the merchants...casting 20+ buffs manually via radial dial is....meh.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I got my PC to LLoths Tower in the drow underworld, made my way to the 3rd floor and entered what looks to be the "boss room", but there was nothing but 4 more Guardian spiders.

Er...why would you EVER need to cast 20+ buffs from the radial menu?

               Bless, Entropic Shield, Pro Alignment, Aid, Darkfire, NEP, Endurance, Bulls Strength, Eagle Splendor, death ward, freedom, Imp Invis, Stoneskin, SR, True Seeing, ext Divine Power, Ext Regen.  

Ok got me, only 17.  But on low magic worlds, add in GMW, Shield of Faith, and 2xMagic Vestment to that, for 21.  

I wait to use Ext Battletide and ext divine favor until right when i engage.

Why radial dial?  because it's soooo much faster than having to mouse click all over from quick bars, particularly after having to hit shift or ctrl.  I can actually stack them all way faster than they cast, and then i get a drink or use the bathroom while they resolve.

I can stack them far faster than they cast with clicking the quick bars and it is significantly faster than using the radial in my experience.  I've never had to use the radial for more than one or two weak buffs outside of combat.
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Dante2377]

               Well for me it's the other way - the finger gymnastics on the radial on a real keyboard are much easier on my wrist/forearm than moving a mouse all over the screen.  

Either way, both are a pain the butt.
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_MagicalMaster]

               Ah, you actually use the keyboard for the radial?  Interesting.  Either way, yes, way too many buffs in NWN.

Though a drawback to the buff rod is that it might make it too easy to rebuff in combat for the builder's desire.  Obviously you can then make it not work if there's a hostile nearby and so on but it is something to consider.
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_Dante2377]

               Yah, every buff rod I've seen wasn't usable in combat/hostiles nearby.
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_EzRemake]

               I've never even thought about buff rods, what awesomeness this is!

Seems to be very solid.

What I'm curious of is, if you have 20 buffs stored on a rod with 20 visual effects going off simultaneously, doesn't that hit server performance?

               I've never had any issues with buff rods - for one, you're not in combat and most are caster only anyway.  Also, not every spells visual fires off, at least the ones I've seen....
