Edwin's Amulet

Remove all ads!

What is that necklace Edwin is wearing? everytime you try to change it he says its a memento of thai or something?

 

It is a necklace usable only by him and removing it (through cheating means) actually hurts Edwin. He gets to memorize more spells with that amulet. And yes the amulet is associated with the Red Wizards of Thay.

 

it's his family thingy or something, doesn't do anything except being special to him, just like Minsc is running around with Boo.

And removing it form Edwin and adding to youself with different utilities does not give the extra spells Edwin gets (it's been up before, sometime in the past).

 

Actually this amulet belongs to Edwin personally and only gives spell bonus to him either.

 

@Laksol

does that mean Minsc get's berserk ability from carrying around Boo?

I dont think that amulet does anything than add roleplay to the game

 

(very small ToB spoiler)

No the Amulet DOES give Edwin additional spells! You as an evil playes should know that Lokken

It's just called Edwin's Personal Amulet but you can compare it with for example the Amulets for Clerics in ToB, but then for accepted Red Wizard members I suppose.... it does give additional spells...

Boo gives only psychological advantages to minsc And when you kill Boo, Minsc will beserk surely

That item IN SOA as it is asked in forum for SoA gives Edwin ability to memorize two bonus spells of each level.
So, not only he has one bonus spell for being a specialist - he's got two more per level in the spellbook.

[Edit]
AND if someone thinks like Lokken that it works only for Edwin - no pal, it works for any wizard. Unless you use lame utils instead of hex editing to cheat.

I rest my case then. Though you still can't benefit from it as far as I know

[EDIT]

Ok, ok! so I don't cheat and don't know

2nd [EDIT]

Ok it works, I dont know what you did to it but it is rather neat, muwhahaha
So edwin's amulet does grant him spells.
And I think from what should make sense, instead of sleasy shortcuts by slacky programming

Ok, now here's the deal.

I edited that amulet to be removable and mailed it to Lokken.
Also I changed it's usability so non-wizards can't use it.
Next I renamed it in something that doesn't exist because inventory screen checks the item name and if it is legal Edwin's amulet - screen screems.

The only thing left to do is that Lokken tries it on a wizard of his choice - i.e. Nalia

So, you just wait him to post what did he found about the item at last.

IMPORTANT
Do not ask me to mail the item to you. I hate cheating. This is just for info purpose.

 

i hate cheating... and i hate cheathers... they take the fun out of a game

 

Actually, I think Boo -might- grant Minsc his berserk rages. I was looking through the spells with the Infinity Explorer a while ago, and Minsc's berserk rage special ability has the picture of a hamster. *laugh*

 

You actually hate cheaters? Seems a lil strong, How do the ruin the game for you exactly?

 

Shoshino, say hello to the SK cheater.

 

Well I actually don't cheat but I see nothing wrong with it.

 

This is thread about damned amulet - not CHEATING! So, cool it off will ya?

No, Boo does not grant beserk ability. It is just there as "make up" piccy and place occupying non-removable item.

 

Oh, I was being silly. I meant maybe Minsc draws his superhuman powers from Boo, since the designers obviously saw fit to put Boo's picture on his berserk abilities. (-: Not that the hamster item actually confers berserking abilities in the game. (Though that would be kind of funny...)
