    You know when you go to fight bodhi for the final time, well I went to emplore some help. I went to the Knight place, Radient Heart or whatever and got a group of knights to help. Then I visited the shadow thieves and got a group of them to help. Then I met up with Drizzt and he said he would help too, thinking I had enough help I went straight to the graveyard district( actually I couldn't think of anyone else who would help) OK, I fought all those minor vampires then visited Bohdi. Hard battle so I let the Knights and the Thieves do there work first. Suddenly a massive fireball erupted from one of the Knights and hurt all the thieves as well. So the knights come up and start blaming me for it, then the thieves did too. To top it off Drizzt wouldn't do a god damn thing. I reloaded several times but found no way to avoid the fireball erupting. Eventually I just killed Bodhi by my self(got taken down to level 3 though) I thought it was greatly unfair though seeing as though I went to all that work to find all the help.

    Isn't it a trap that let the fireball explode? Maybe it's better that when everybody is fighting the vampires, you go to Bodhi's lair en fight her, she isn;t really hard to kick and 1 fireball doensn't do that much damage to your party. Just use some protections, should be easy.

    I found it best to just ask Drizzt for help. He will do things and the fireball wont hurt him at all.

    I found it best to shred the Vampires in my own grinder. By that time I literally ran through the dungeon killing as I went. I had two people immune to level drain due to items and everyone was immune to domination. So much damage was done that the Vampires (except for Bodhi herself) hardly had a chance to take a swing at me.

    Bodhi is surprisingly easy to kill as long as one fighter/mage or fighter/cleric has the amulet of power and the other has the Mace of Disruption +2. Hardly a challenge.

    Damn I didn't know you could recruit the shadow thieves too.

    Who did they send?

    hmmmm

    i had the problem with the Fireball... i think the guy has the Harbringer Sword... it does a Fireball at 5% chance or something...

    that is my theory

    just try again... the fireball thing doesn't happen very often... stupid bleedin' Paladins and their powerful swords...

    Did I get this correctly? A Paladin suicide squad of righteousness fireballing their own party?
    (*sigh*) What will become of Faerun...

    I went straight to the Graveyard district from where you come out of the underdark and on my way I came acros Drizzt and his party. He helps defeating a couple of Vamps and then his party leaves, but Drizzt is staying. I got downstairs and looked for Bodhi. I just had to fight Bodhi and Drizzt helped. Piece of cake. No fireball thingy no nothing. Just a black heart the lanthorn and Imoen's soul back!

    Hey, paladins ARE worthless dumbasses who end up sticking their overpowered huge swords into themselves most of the time.
    That's why Mages, Fighter/rogues and Fighter/mages are the more popular adventurer choices.

    I don't think you can resurrect the genie unless you know the details of his life and you perform the spell on his home plane (and layer maybe).

    On my way to Athkatla, I ran across Drizzt et al. and I have a question:

    Can you ever help that dwarf get his red (pink) warhammer back?
