    [​IMG] Anyone notice that after a NPC casts dimension door, they do not disappear immediately and you still have a few seconds to talk to them?

    I found something funny if you try this with Tolgeras after giving him Valygar's corpse. Talk to him before he vanishes and you'll get the "quest in progress" dialogue. Then you can finish the quest twice (get 2 rings of ram and double the experience) or if you say something else, you can continue the quest after finishing it already. I'm not sure if this problem been reported already...

    Are there any other NPC's in the game that this trick may work on?

    Yes that thing is possible on several places and it's been called "faketalk strategy TM Dan Simpson".

    Please if someone knows where Bioware forgot to instantly disable the dialog after it's finished, do post it. This must (and will) be repaired.

    I'd hate to revive this thread but here's another one: Mekrath doesn't disappear fast enough after returning the imp's mirror to him. You could still talk to him, but unlike the Tolgerias thing, you won't get anything extra (all you can do is screw up your quest journal).

    **** SPOILERS WARNING ****

    I got experience and Golden Girdle six times from Solamnic knights quest. Also, if you attack Rejiek you can get experience from revealing him many, many times. Another one is at Brynnlaw, you can get experience from Ellie (cook in Galvena's Festhall) as many times you wish. :D

    3 rings of the ram. :D

    You can get 2 of them without this strategy by pickpocketing one from Tolgerias and then doing the planar sphere...

    Infact, make that FOUR rings of the ram; but it does involve taking Valygar in your part for a short time...
