I hear wild mages actually get pretty broken powerful in BG2

I really found this class guide informative, but yea it’s very much a power gaming explanation. I’ve listened to the entire thing (at the gym, sadly lol)

If you want extra challenge, there’s an incredibly popular difficulty mod I sometimes run on BG1 called SCS you could try too

Solo wild mage would be tough, hopefully you also using NPC’s. Once you get web spell things get much easier to manage I feel

I've been doing a BG1 playthrough with a buddy recently too. Probably 1 more session and we'll finish the main story, then on to BG1.5, or whatever the game is between 1 and 2. I've never played past 1 before. Looking forward to it.

IDK. My friend that I'm playing with has played all of these like 10 times over. That's just how he described it to me. I'm not sure what the title is.

We've done Tales of the Sword coast to completion and are moving in on the final confrontation in the base game. He said there is one other whole DLC/side game separate from BG1 that we do next before starting BG2.

Seige of dragonspear is the 1.5. I’ve played through 3/4 of it. Pretty engaging gameplay, not a great story. Can’t hold a candle to BG1 but it was an entirely different company

But if you set it on the harder difficulty I believe with the SCS mod it is borderline impossible, in a good way

I remember my OP powergamed chars plowed through BG1 SCS on hard but then got completely cockblocked at some part of SoD with the mod on highest difficulty, so bad I quit the game
