Hi all,

Is there a comprehensive reference for level-dependent class abilities in
NWN2? The PDF manuals leave out quite a lot of info, and I can get a few
insights from FAQs and stuff but I'm wondering whether anyone has drawn all
this together. E.g. I want to know how many times/day the Barbarian can Rage
at each level - I can't find this info anywhere. Similarly, I want to know
how much extra damage is added by the Frenzied Berserker's Enhanced Power
Attack and Supreme Power Attack ... but I can't find this anywhere either.

That sort of thing.

TIA,

CC

I just happened to see this over at http://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Rage
while I was looking around for D&D information. Among other Barbarian
abilities, number of rage events per level is listed in the handy chart.

I would think that in general, you can look at the current D&D rules (and
correct me if I'm wrong, but I think NWN2 uses 35E rather than 4E
standards.) Of course, the usual CRPG limitations apply to the rules,
especially those that aren't expressed in numerical terms in the real
pen-and-paper game. Also, there's the additional burden of Electronic Arts
interfering with the artistic vision, but that's my own personal beef and
not relevant to your question. Smile

again.

A modified version of the 3.5 rules, yes. Definitely not 4E rules, which
is basically a MMO played with cards and figurines instead of a computer.

A way to check some of this in game is go to the create a new
character screen, as if you want to, and when you get to the class
selection pick a class and in its description it'll say stuff like -
at 3rd level the <insert class> gains the ability to do whatever. at
5th level the <insert class> gains the ability to do somethingelse.
etc...

There's their forums:

Thanks Leo and Kendrick for the replies - I'm finding the nwn2 Wikia by far
the most helpful - far more so than the official forum.

Finally perfected my Swashbuckler/Monk/Weaponmaster build - now I'm enjoying
playing it!

Cheers,

Chris
