jastey Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) The mage Valerie Valeria from Gavin's quest drops a +3 staff - which is a bit powerful for the early game. What do you think, nerf it to +2, or maybe even +1? "Oh, please no, that's the staff I always go for as soon as I come to Beregost"? What's your opinion? Edited May 25, 2017 by jastey Quote Share this post Link to post
Jarno Mikkola Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) What's Valeria's strength as an opponent ? Perhaps it's because his staff does the most in the partnership ? V-himself could be a bumbling idiot like the host is most of the time. A +1 ... + a bonus that makes V-also good - could be more suited perhaps.

Roxanne Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) Even with the staff equipped, B!Valer is a quite weak opponent for that (BG1 around chapter3) part of the game and her role in Gavin's quest. Rather than to make her even weaker, it may be an idea to make that staff undroppable and not stealable. This way she can use it in combat but the party cannot pick it from her body, dead or alive. The other items she drops is reward enough for the quest (+ you get a bonus from the temple on top for doing the job). PS - this is Valeria, not to be confused with the mage Valerie, the joinable NPC from her own mod. Edited May 22, 2017 by Roxanne Quote Share this post Link to post
jastey Posted May 22, 2017 Roxanne: Making the staff undroppable is a good idea, too. And sorry about the names. I always twist names (I tend to misspell the names of my own quest characters in my mods if I don't look them up regularly.) Quote Share this post Link to post
jastey Posted May 25, 2017 I went with both: made the +3 staff undroppable and let her drop a +1 staff. Quote Share this post Link to post
