::* Well, the henchman tales are not anywhere in the wiki that I can see, just a description of the items for which those tales lead the henchmen to look. I think the description of those items is more appropriate here than elsewhere, since they are quests of the campaign. I suppose the individual henchmen articles could list those items as well (similar to how there is a brief description of each henchman here, but the detailed descriptions are elsewhere), but over there, I would think a summary of their stories would be more relevant than the items they are looking for. (The stories tell us about the characters; the items tell us about the quests.) That might not make sense without a demonstration, so (later) I'll add the tales to one of the henchman articles as an example of what I mean.

Revision as of 20:09, 15 November 2011

Rename

Thanks for adding this article, Evilphoenix. NWNWiki is lacking when it comes to the official campaign and modules. However, shouldn't this be named official campaign? That's the terminology BioWare seems to use. -- Austicke 22:22, 21 Dec 2005 (PST)

Whichever. I was gonna make it that but saw it as "Original" somewhere else. I think original works because arent the expansion packs just as official? But really it could be either, and if Bioware has it as official we could go with that. Evilphoenix 16:39, 22 Dec 2005 (PST)

External links

The external links are broken, at least for me. ThunderChicken 22:10, 22 March 2007 (PDT)

  • They're working for me. --The Krit 12:23, 13 April 2007 (PDT)

Content?

This page's actuall content, the game itself, needs filling in. Now I know I started filling it, but I haven't played this game for a while now. Does no-one remember the campaign at all?

  • Please someone post the end of the game for me iv been dieing to know how it ends. --174.57.153.2 16 January 2011
  • i updated this a bit but i'm not sure i'll do the whole thing. i don't think i'm a good story writer and for me this work takes a lot of time. so no promises ;) --Pimpernell 03:41, July 25, 2011 (UTC)

Notes on the prelude

After patch 1.69 it is no longer possible to gain a level this way, for any class. The Goblins and Skeletons in the Prelude will give 17XP to a level 3 Wizard and less with a party/summons. For a level 3 Wizard to gain level 4, you'll need 3000XP. That means killing 3000:17 = 177 Goblins/Skeletons (rounded up). At best there are only 68 Goblins/Skeletons (including the 4 Goblins spawned by the 2 "Mysterious Mages"). Even if you hadn't killed the Boss Mage and or the Tough Goblin yet, you will never get the XP required for level 4.

i'll update that section now. --Pimpernell 16:30, July 24, 2011 (UTC)

Training for specific classes

basically, The Krit, you got them right. but the bard can also finish its training with the combat and thievery instructors. he will still get the magic rod as a present, even though he didn't take the magic training. --Pimpernell 18:07, July 30, 2011 (UTC)

  • Bard is the class I was not confident about, since they have been a combination of fighter, rogue, and spellcaster since the days of AD&D. --The Krit 16:53, July 31, 2011 (UTC)

Main plot

It looks to me as if the "main plot" section is being bogged down with the details of a step-by-step walkthrough. There are links to five walkthroughs in the external links section, so do we really need another walkthrough here? Is there a benefit to spending time on yet another wakthrough? (If so, let's at least put it in another article so people looking for the main plot can find what they are looking for.) --The Krit 17:02, July 31, 2011 (UTC)

Play time

A estimated play time would be usefull for new players, as its not easily found anywhere. --24.57.123.9 04:11, 14 November 2011

  • Time rating added. --The Krit 18:44, November 15, 2011 (UTC)

The info

Now that some of the info has been added to aproppriate pages, should the info be removed from this page? MysteryStranger: Trust in the power of Infinity! 21:40, November 14, 2011 (UTC)

  • Which info are you talking about? I thought this was the appropriate page for all the information currently in the article. --The Krit 22:02, November 14, 2011 (UTC)
  • Well, the henchman tales are not anywhere in the wiki that I can see, just a description of the items for which those tales lead the henchmen to look. I think the description of those items is more appropriate here than elsewhere, since they are quests of the campaign. I suppose the individual henchmen articles could list those items as well (similar to how there is a brief description of each henchman here, but the detailed descriptions are elsewhere), but over there, I would think a summary of their stories would be more relevant than the items they are looking for. (The stories tell us about the characters; the items tell us about the quests.) That might not make sense without a demonstration, so (later) I'll add the tales to one of the henchman articles as an example of what I mean.
  • We could insert the info about the items (their effects) to henchmen pages. This should be done (along with some other things) as the page is too large, it should be split in several parts. MysteryStranger: Trust in the power of Infinity! 20:09, November 15, 2011 (UTC)
As for the walkthrough, that has already been removed to its own article (and replaced here with a plot summary). --The Krit 18:54, November 15, 2011 (UTC)
