IWD2, in the author's opinion, is one of *the* most well-designed games ever made for the PC. It is also one of the most challenging, especially when you finish the game and decide to check off the "Heart of Fury mode" difficulty option to play again with your victorious party. However, there's a lack of good guides out there for this super hard difficulty mode, and the few that are out there have knowledge gaps, errors, and in some cases it almost seems like the writers themselves have never even played Heart of Fury (otherwise they would've noticed that some things they suggest don't work at all).
Enter this guide! Hopefully you'll find this to be a veritable tome of all sorts of information for playing through Heart of Fury mode. Plus, it's even got extra stuff in case you want to challenge yourself even further (think Final Fantasy Tactics-style self-challenges). |
