Strongholds

Nildar · Sat, 12th Jul '03, 11:47am

If your character is multi-class can they have a stronghold? If so what is it, one or the other or both?

You can only choose one out of two or three.

Unless you have the mutiple strongholds mod that is...

Actually, that's not entirely true. If you are a F/T or a F/M, you can get both strongholds (without the mod), as long as you do the fighter one last. If you do the D'Arnise keep first, do not meet with Nalia after you clear it out. Instead, go get your other stronghold (make sure it's given to you), then go back for the final meeting. Presto, two strongholds.

By the way, I've never tried this with a F/C or a F/D, so I cannot say whether it works with a temple or the grove.

Thanks dmc. I knew about F/T, but I didn't know about F/M. And I didn't know you had to do the fighter one last. I am playing a C/M, and I only got one. I did the cleric one, because the mage one really doesn't give you many good items, unless you explode all your apprentices, and I'm good, so I really don't want to do that. Anyway, your statement makes me wonder if the order is important in all cases. For example, I did the Unseeing Eye quest first, so I got the cleric stronghold. I wonder if I had done the Planar Sphere first, and then went a did the Unseeing Eye if I would have got them both.

I think the next version of Baldurdash is going to close this loophole.

Multiple strongholds only works with the fighter stronghold. Either 1) do it last, or 2) do it first and tell Nalia you aren't ready to take over it yet then go back and collect it later after you have got the other stronghold.

This only works with the fighter stronghold and one other - so a F/M/T can't have all 3 strongholds within the standard game anyway.
