    I'm in the thieve guildhall about to finish bodhis quest. Ive cleared out everywhere except aran's room and havent been able to rest through any of it. I entered the whole place missing quite a few of my top spells and by now (when im up to the biggest battle in here) i have nothing!
    So my question is;
    * is there anyway of getting out and in ive missed?
    * OR can you rest down here somewhere?

    Just leave and go to an inn. Or if you're strapped for cash, get as close to the circus tent in the Promenade as you can and try resting out in the open. (That won't work every time, so you'll have to experiment with it to get the right position and screen alignment; for some reason it cares where you're looking. :rolleyes: )

    Thanks for the fast reply but I dont seem to be able to get out of here until ive finished though; the only door that leads out is locked and im not sure how to open and the entrance i came in has ceased to have a door.

    Do you know how to get out of Aran Linvail's lair?

    :doh: Should've figured it wouldn't be that easy. Well, there are three exits to the underground of the Thieves' Guildhall: the stairs, the exit just below that (through the door), and one way up at the top of the map (past the room with no floor, the fake town, the non-bridge level of the labyrinth pipes room, there's a door that leads to the east side of the docks). If you can't reach any of them, the only things I can think of are:

    1. In the unlikely event you have a wild mage PC with any spells left, hope to all the gods of Faerun for just the right wild surge.
    2. Limited Wish (though I imagine you wouldn't be asking if that were an option)
    3. Ctrl+J over to the exit and run for your lives.
    4. Try to win without spells.

    :o So basically, the only ways I can think of to get your spells back involves other spells or resting. The area is classified as "city", so you shouldn't be able to rest without someone interrupting you, but given the lack of options, I'd give it a shot just to make sure.

    This is ridiculous; i sided with bohdi my first time through this game and cleared out the thieves with NO trouble at all when i hardly even new how to play. Since then ive finished the game about 3 times and played through the 1st few chapters Many times and yet find myself here - with hardly any patches on (none making it any harder AFAIK) - and unable to do this battle.
    Im getting torn to peices within about 20 seconds of opening his door and im lucky to kill 1 or 2 thieves. GAH!!

    ^ thats my attempt without spells...

    Why not just sleep somewhere you have cleared up. If they interrupt you you aren't worse off than you already are. And if you do manage a good night's sleep you can go ahead and kick Arans ass. The torture chambers may be a good place to take a nap.

    Its not that they interupt me though, rather, i get the message saying 'you can not rest here, either find an inn or rest outside' no matter where i am in there.
