Description
Dragons Bane (DB) is an epic quest oriented adventure that utilises powerful subraces, custom items and a host of carefully configured monsters and NPCs. A variation of the hardcore rule set has been utilised in order to bring you a challenging module with depth and character. It is both a single player and multiplayer module that employs a smart-spawning custom encounter system that determines the number and difficulty of monsters that will be spawned based on the number of players present and the in-game difficulty settings. The combination of a compelling plot and fast paced hack n slash action ensures that Dragon�s Bane whisks you away on an immersive action packed adventure as you seek to save the world from the return of the dark one. From the author of the award winning module The Arena of Champions, comes this new and improved version of a NWN Vault Hack n Slash favourite.

Ok this mod seems to fit my tastes but one thing that is really annoying is my wizard henchmen keeps battling melee and doesn't switch to magic. I tried talking to him and switching to magic and attack all magic and every else I can figure thats relevant but he still attacks with his stupid staff..

Wow!!! Better than Diablo!!! Very addictive - you have been warned!!! Only issue I had...later in the game, after I became very strong, kept having to reset the game to superhard...got annoying that the game wouldn't remember my settings...not just when restarting the whole game, but also when switching between major chapters of the game itself. Overall, one of my favorites!!! Long live Hack'n'Slash!!!

A fun hack and slash module. =)

we loved your modules, but now we are stuck in the temple of the lizard folks. We cannot find the elder, to talk to him. I looked inside your module, I can see, that you put him there (his name appear), but no lizard, no stats. We are stuck ! We would like to finish you're piece of work, but ......

Perfectly suits my playing tastes. (I have done it with Pal/Ftr/CoT without any troubles.) Have to try another combos and subraces :)
Thank you very much for the great time I had so far!

Love the mod but have hit a technical impass. I have found no portal in cave with dragon, no icewing dagger in chest and even when I go back and kill the first dragon, my log says I did but I cannot get the second dragon to talk to me. What is going on? Thank you.
Neither Night elf nor Drow work as a subrace, is there any trick I haven't seen yet? Or do all races with an elf as base have difficulties working since I managed to build a wood elf
Also, occasionally monsters will appear to act as though they are under the effects of a fear spell (i.e. they just flee combat), despite not being under one, and the familiar AI is only appropriate for a Pixie or other scout type familiar-your familiar always flees combat.
Is there any way at all to turn off the rest restrictions or bring the monsters down to sane hp levels (I turned difficulty down to the lowest setting and I still am firing over half a dozen empowered fireballs at a single frost giant 'lord' to drop him, despite using the succubus sub-race with greater spell focus evocation and despite taking a warrior henchmen)? I wanted to play a good hack and slash as a mage, but the massive hp levels of the monsters means that I can't handle two encounters in a row without resting, and the rest restrictions prevent me from doing so.
Looks fun. Quick Question before I start, can I prc this module? Makes no difference, I was just wondering before I start.

Very hard, very fun!! Thanks!
I did a Dragoon - Monk w/ a level of Sorc and 4 of RDD for the str bonus. I got stuck in the wall once, but no other problems.
You will go insane if you don't figure out how to use your special abilities.

Dont mind that last comment, we seem to have fixed it.

Im not sure what happened, but my friend and I arent able to complete the Icewing quest. We had the blade, but when we went to kill Icewing he wouldnt talk to us, so we just killed him there. Our journal says we completed the quest but now Shimclaw doesnt acknowledge that we killed Icewing. Do we have to start over?

Just what I was looking for

1. read the walkthrough if you can't crack the puzzles.
2. some of the level scripts are prone to script lag (and failure). Doesn't happen on my commputer (typical). I should really remove those.
3. Not single player? Try a subrace. Its balanced around them. You were warned. Only the best players will survive as a non-subrace.
4. It's free. Being indignant isn't helpful. More specific feedback is much more useful. _________________________ Modules: Shadows of Darkmoon The Arena of Champions Dragon's Bane

A lot of work obviously went into this mod...too bad because it really is awful!
Very much like playing PnP with the most obnoxious, petulant DM you can remember playing with.
It is beyond buggy, it is full of puzzles that have no logical clues (like a lever puzzle where the clue is basicly try all six possible combos and don't do it too fast or even if you get it right it won't work due to a bug), it is not a single player mod no matter what it says.
Skip this and play something good.
Help Please! Just killed the Flesh Warlock and now cant find Hana! I have waited in the room for over an hour just to see if she shows up, I have also gone back and forth to the Assassins Hide out but still no luck...where is she?
Great Mod however, Im really diggin it!

Major bugs in this for a HOF. A lot of script overruns, cannot use a henchman due to too many instructions, a quest that shows up in the Journal but I didn't play, and finally on the "Hana" quest. Beat the boss and no Hana to talk to.
I know it's a side quest that moves the story but that's pretty major. I'm giving it a 7 due to all these bugs. Great storyline and very innovative (perhaps too much) playing a Vamp/Rogue/Assassin which is very cool.

A real fantastic, epic adventure. Enjoyed it very much until I got stuck in the lizards temple: Nobody to talk to in spite of my translating gear. Where is help??

Made comments in SOD as well. But early on about level 12 found rope and so entered tomb. After 1 or 2 efforts managed to take out everybody inside and found crown of ages, Hvy flail and bast sword (I think you should remove these). Decided not to use or sell either weapons, could not resist COA although it is prob only +1 soak 20 dam rather than +10 soak 20 dam (when I had enough money bought the best monks boots as well, +10 soak 15 dam, neither of these work as when I was hit did not absorb dam. Anyway finished this time around with a monk/ftr 20/7 and wait for it an ac of 87. Originally tried succubus sorceress but got bored, basically you buff and once you run out of spells that's it. Both time used divine warrior (paladin)as hench. Actually finished on more xp with monk than I did with clr/ftr/rg. The former as soon as I had finished trials took on a henchman, the latter after completing gaias naval completely solo.

I know it has only been awhile but hopefully you can help? Have gone back to using monks again, and all of those players who have used high level hasted monks (especially for the first time), must have been in awe with their speed rate. I know it is quite difficult to control on ocassions and in those games when a henchperson is about to speak and kapow your half way across the area and so miss out on convo is a pain. Anyway a vampire/monk, it specifies that a vampires movement increases to 200% at level 5 would this be*bleep*ulative with a hasted monks speed, if so that would be possibly twice as fast as norm can youcontrol your characters movement?

Omg! You have been unlucky haven't you. I'm terribly sorry about that. Luckily in this case there is a simple solution:
1. Export your character (make sure you grab any gear you have stashed anywhere and don't forget to grab all of your henchman gear)
2. Start a new game
3. Go to the temple and the pedestil should be fully unlocked so you can go where you need to.
4. Port around and talk to them again and all should be fine. Maybe try shimclaw first just to make sure this has worked.
Posted by FeyKina at 2007-08-09 00:40:38 Voted 9.50 on 08/12/07
I know, just what you were hoping for....I'm back.
With another showstopper.
Got the mission statements from the Arch Angel to deliver..
Dwarves - no problem
Eleven Queen - no problem
Asassins - perfect
Then I teleport to Shimclaw lair and he only asks about Bluedragon and gives me the the speech options:
: - what to see your wares
- nothing really
Have teleported in and out from different areas, went back before the lizard patriarch mission and visited Shimclaw and completed it agian, no change.
Tried every runaround I could think of twice .
So I once again humbly ask for mercy, Help!
Need another code to get the dragon to take the mission.
You are a saint. This is a fabulous mod.
I have no clue why this is happening, I've done nothing extraordinary
Thanks....FeyKina
