Piss-off moments

Remove all ads!

I'm playing an evil sorceress with a assasin companion. Barely out of dungeon, lvl10, low reputation, both evil.

Now, i was doing the slavers quest wiping out those guys in the ship. Entered through the sewers and had a long difficult fight. Reloaded a few times and won.
Assasin died and i summoned up a demon(scroll) to kill of most of the survivors. Ran out of the place (ran not fought) and got to the temple.
There i paid dearly (low reputation, evilness) to ressurect the assasin.

And guess what happened then?
A little, common, weak thug showed up and scored a critical hit on my 1HP assasin. Blown him to pieces ofcourse without the posibility of revival.

And my last save was naturaly BEFORE the battle

Hate'em all !!!!!


Anyway, whats your similiar most-pissed-off experience?

 

Hehe, that sounded really HATE... I've never had such a terrible moment I think

 

"Swords not words!"
-Minsc

 

Having Aerie in my party, of course.

 

The same happened to me too.

The most pissed off moments I experience always with the vampiric mists; those pesky little piles of... goodness have an ability to cast invicibility -immediatly-, have the level drain (the most annoying status effect in the game) and EVERY DAMN TIME they target my spell-casters first! Oh, yeah, fine; but what really pisses me off is that even if they aren´t invisible, they can just walk past my "heroic" fighters and, of course, then level drain my mages -despite stone skin or invisibility.

The best thing is, that if I send my fighters or thieves scout ahead, they STILL target my mages -even if they were hidden to the opposite part of the map!

...Heh, and just closing the door makes those poor bastards so easy to mash into so much mush...

Yup those mist are really incredibly annoying.
It's almost impossible to destroy them if you dont dispel their invinsibility. They dissapear in an instant casting invinsibility regardles of round check.

Best way to destroy them is obvious: Cleric Blow'em to pieces

 

How about in the sewers and all my guys get horrored, and they run around until they're killed by kobalds

 

My most annoyed moment was the end of Chapter 4- Fighting Bodhi. I know now what I didn't know then--- that she can't die yet.

What made it even worse is that she wouldn't leave either. I just stayed there, hacking away for 2 realtime hours. My whole party died. It was just me hacking and her-- not dying, not leaving.

I had to do the maze all over again. I finally figured out the glitch is that I had Protection from Undead on which kept her from talking, which in turn, kept her from leaving. Arrrrgh!

 

One time, Minsc was Dire Charmed at the end of a really tough battle, where everyone in my party had been worn down to very low hit points (like 15 and below). I'd run out of Dispel Magic and Stun spells, and he proceeded to get the luckiest critical hit run I've ever seen. He chunked my entire party - and by chunked I mean a critical hit exploding death from which there is no return - ending with my PC, all in the space of about 10 rounds. And I hadn't saved in a while, so I had to back track quite a bit.

 

I once beat Firkraag. Then a berserked Minsc killed the main character. Took me a while to slay the nasty dragon again.

 

Related to the vampiric mist thing: I also hate (to a lesser degree) phase spiders that dimension door over to the weaker characters in your party, even when they are on the other side of the map.

Most annoying thing for me? Trying to hit and run against a group of gauths and beholders. Even when I think I'm out of their line of sight, they still hit me with one last beholder ray. More often than not, it is a cause serious wounds ray that saps the last ten hit points of my character.

 

I just hate it when someone in my group gets charmed or dire charmed. On a similar note, accidently casting a fireball and having a summoned creature turn on you also packs.

 

The most annoying thing i found was when playing through BB2 SoA the first time. Chapter 6 i think it is. The last time u face bohdi. It the very last room where she is. I couldn't get past that. I spent months and month trying to get past and i just couldn't do it. But one day one of my brothers friends comes along (whos never played an RPG of any sort before) and beats bohdi in his first shot.

 

The Darkest Day. I was playing evil, so I didn't go to Spellhold until late in the game. Anyway, long story short, TDD has alot of bugs. One of them was it wouldn't load the area outside Spellhold. I teleported myself in through the console (but I couldn't get outside... I had to teleport inside). Anyway, I couldn't get to the 'Director', so I CLUAed him in too. I went through the whole level and when I was about to face up to Irenicus, Saemon Havarian wouldn't talk to me so I couldn't go upstairs. I tried attacking Irenicus, but he wouldn't take any damage. I didn't have any previous saves, only quick-saves and auto-saves. That was the last straw. I uninstalled TDD and cursed its name to the heavens. I stopped playing BG2 after that (for awhile anyway).

 

How about when you play through for the fist time, give all the one off quest items like the acorns and stuff to one character they get killed and you leave it all behind.

 

When my mother wants to play or pretends to type on the keyboard, I tell her to piss off

 

OK here's my exp-
Playing BG2 for the first time. Just defeated the guardian. But not before Imoen got hit bad. So I had to give her a potion of healing and one of extra-healing. Go to Irenicus mistress' room and have Imoen search for traps but she is just standin around. So I sent her to steal from the nearest chest.
And the girl walks over two traps, has green goo poured all over her, looses all hit points n dumps me for a breath of fresh air.
Where do i store all the stuff I have given her!! And of course i did not save at all so I have to do it all over again.

 

Actually I remember when I accidently saved over a really good game, I got annoyed than as I had to start all over again.

 

The Vampric Mists in Firkrags lair, Anomen got leveled drained quite a few levels and he was the only one in my party able to cast restoration and he lost the spell level because of the level drain, the last save was the Auto Save.
Anyway, what are "guardians", it is the toughest opponent my PC has killed and it was mentioned a few postes up

 

The 1st time i played... Juz back from Underdark holiday. One day my cousin came over my house, i showed him how flexible the game is by hacking EVERYBODY in copper corronet. Including team mates... Juz as we laugh. I was thinking of hittin quick load. Well, that time i was playing Fallout: Brotherhood of steel. Its F6 is quicksave, F9 is quickload... while in SoA, F9 is quicksave, F12 is quickload.

Yup, u guessed it correct, i hitted F9 and threwed the game away for a long time.
