Caught in the middle of two bugs?

Remove all ads!

I started playing SoA while having installed ToB. Everything was fine, I escaped Irenicus dungeon and started the Kangaxx quest. Its one of the first I do because I want that ring ASAP.

Well, I planned to destroy the lich in the bridge district first.
Its part of my strategie to leave his tomb when he starts his spellcasting to disrupt it. Eventually, he will follow to the upper room to try and blast me, so I will leave the area again. It goes like this until he's run out of spells and I bash him.

This time, however, when I tried to avoid his spell on the upper level and left the area to enter the tomb he is ALREADY THERE! And the one from the upper room follows - so I face two of them. Then when I head back to the upper level, *surprise*: There is already a lich present and the two from the tomb follow - that makes three. It goes on like this. They multiply. And its like that with all hostile creatures I try to avoid or lure out of their hiding. Liches, pirates...

No problem, I thought and uninstalled everything to continue the game only with SoA and maybe install the expansion later since then I have decent magics and dont need to do this manouvering.
And yes, with SoA there is no multiplying of liches or other foes. But *NOW* my game crashes as soon as I try to enter the docks district!

So, with the same safed game I have these problems:

1. SoA with ToB: Enemies multiply
2. SoA: Cant enter docks district

There are no mods installed. And I never needed a patch but now I tried the offical one but its no good.

I dont want to abandon my bard - he has fine stats and all.

Please help.

 

This is fixed either by the patch or Baldurdash.

Save char, restart with the patch.

 

Multiplying enemies.. That is what you get for being such a coward.

 

Thanks, Taza!
But I never had any interest in patches. Can you or someone else tell where to find Baldurdash?

@ Mayfairy

I am a rouge. Whatever does the job...

>Edit< I have done a search and found a Baldurdash link. Still, thanks.

 

Looking on the bright side of things, it's a hell of a way to gain some extra XP. At 22,000 a shot liches are well worth killing.

Pity they don't each drop a decent item...

 

It worked!!
My deepest appreciation for patches and their creators.

@ dshadow

My thoughts exactly.
I wouldnt hesitate to take advantage of this... if it werent liches. They are a handful for lowlevel parties when alone. Three or five of them are too much for a godling.

EDIT: Sorry, CamDawg's post is correct. It's been awhile since I've been there so I didn't remember the correct addy.
