In particular, these spells will allow a sorcerer to survive in the front ranks: Sorcerers actually are the best tanks (in terms of taking hits, not dealing them). Also, unless the EE changed this, the spell will not wear off, even if you rest however, the missles can encumber you. This makes it very good not just for damage, but also for getting rid of mirror images (each damage source can remove an image), dealing with stoneskined enemy mages (each hit gets rid of a stoneskin block and does fire damage that can disrupt the enemy), and spell deflection/turning (each hit's fire damage counts as a separate 3rd level spell, so it uses up spell deflection/turning rather quickly, and each turned missile only does 3 damage to you and the physical portion isn't blocked). Melf's Minute Meteors is very useful you get 5 attacks per round, each of which counts as 2 sources of damage. Of course, all this only really matters if you plan on picking Limited Wish or Wish as a spell if you don't plan on picking either spell, then this doesn't matter (and Potions of Insight are far more common than (limited) wish scrolls). (Note that you can use Potions of Insight to temporarily raise Wisdom, but the supply is finite (though you can use a Projected Image to use the potion without using up the real one, then have the image cast the (limited) wish spell.) For the Wish spell, 18 Wisdom is needed to get the best chance of getting good results. Other effects have lower requirements, but still check the stat for example, 11 Wisdom is enough to get both the healing and negative plane protection effects. If you wish to use Limited Wish to restore your lower level spells, you will need 16 Wisdom. If you plan on using Limited Wish or Wish, your Wisdom will affect what effects you can get. Wisdom actually does have a use for Sorcerers (and Mages) in Baldur's Gate 2. I asked that in a few forums in years and that was the answer. ![]() Goodluck.Įngerek01: WIS and INT does nothing for Sorcerers. It will write that in the wand description. I believe you need 9 INT to be able to use wands and talk properly. It does nothing for spells (unlike NWN games where Sorcerers benefit from high CHA) High DEX for better Range THAC0 and better ACĬHA for better rewards and store discounts. High STR to carry more and to do more damage with slings. So a sorcerer build for BG games is pretty much like a fighter. However, Sorcerers benefit absolutely nothing from it. I believe INT is the class ability for both. Mages learn from scrolls while sorcerers gain new spells as they level up. Keep in mind that Sorcerer or mage are two different things. So, in BG2, Mages are very very powerful. Until chapter 4 or 5, they have around 2-3% kills ratio which becomes 20-30% after level 7 or 9. However, After level 7, they start to become dominant killers of the group. So, especially in early stages, I give my mages a sling and let them shoot from behind until I come across a worthy foe where they shine. They have a great shot to hit with limited ammo. I know BG1 to the core while I know little about BG2 which I never finished.įor BG1, I have always seen mages as "Cannons or artillery" of the group. ![]() ![]() Are mages and sorcerers merely back line support characters? You haven't mentioned which game (BG1EE or BG2EE) you are playing so I will refer to both with my limited knowledge. I could never for the life of me understand how you get through this game when you have a limited number of attacks (magical charges). I just picked up the enhanced edition and I want to actually try to get the hang of magic characters this time around. I basically tried to use as many cheese tactics as I could get hold of. Elfergos: I used to play this game a lot back in the day, but rarely did I play it 'properly'.
