Look, you may be new here, but the Pissing Crone is  where many top minds collaborate, and routinely outsmart the most well  funded, well equipped and diabolical organizations in the Underdark. How do we  do it? Top thinkers, experts on every field, unparalleled investigative  skills and fearlessness. I would trust the graffiti here over pretty  much any Upper scholar, especially a Spellguard, any day.

Yes, and because of that I strongly recommend anyone using this to pull human male heads 7, 14, and 18 because they are so different from the originals that it's liable to lead to some sort of mix-up.

Another thing to mention is that there are a few extra heads in there that will show up during character creation, if you select these no one else will see them. Those can be safely removed as well.

once you reach director you stop worrying about little things like your secretary summoning a devil

I'd like to see more of the EFU custom throwables around in general. There are only a few specific places you can get them. They're awesome but I barely ever use them because I only ever see them drop on the early quests.

I had told a couple of players yesterday that I'd be in game by now. Some real life things have come up, and it won't be until later tonight (in a few hours) that I'm able to make it online.

Not really a "leaving" post, but I just didn't want to leave anybody hanging.

Maybe I would feel different if the purple crystal mine *only* gave you dissipating crystals and not anything larger and sustainable that makes hitting the quest over and over while doing minimal risky things end up in piles and piles of crystals.

I personally have no objection to this suggestion at all. Judging from what others have said, I'd guess a lot of people would feel the same way. It's supposed to be a kickstart, and that's what it should be used for.

I just get tired of nice things being nerfed / taken away because a minority of people are abusing them.

So... what happened?

[your group should be doing a different quest]

I don't think this quest should be changed simply because it's disrupting the immersion of characters who don't actually need what it's offering. If you find that your groups are splitting off into 2-3 man groups to do the quest, then that seems like a pretty good indication that your group should be doing a different quest.

This quest is for people who get stuck because of a lack of healing. It sort of defeats the purpose of having it at all if you're just going to ask the DMs to turn it into a powergamer obstacle course. All that will accomplish is putting it out of reach of the very players it is intended to serve.

I always arrange my inventory from the bottom up, rather than top down. That would straighten you out. That also makes it easier on quests since you know what's yours and what isn't.

Awesome stuff. Never interacted with her, but I also never set foot in the sewers because of her. Her presence was felt all the way in Upper.

I believe the spell immunity items are hard coded to only grant resistances to the spells. For example, there was a common item in EFU:A with Immunity: Web, and it did not protect against the spiders in the Webbed Woods, because their bolt attack is considered a "spell-like effect" by the NWN engine rather than a spell.

It is important to note that this also applies to Immunity: Flesh to Stone. It will not protect you from a petrification gaze attack!

Never mind

I happen to have in my character vault an original uniform from Old Sanctuary that is both distinctive and made from lighter leather material than a chain shirt. I would be happy to email the .bif file to the DMs, because I think we all want the Wayfinders to be immediately recognizable on sight.

[feel my steel]

We tried trading the scrolls by placing them on the ground. The server crashed again when we picked them up.

We tried a final time by trading through another player (thank you, feel my steel). That time it worked.

The scrolls in question were Knock, Cloud of Bewilderment, and Owl's Wisdom. The final time, when the crash did not occur, the Owl's Wisdom scroll was gone, having been eaten by the previous attempt at placing the scrolls on the ground.
