Continuation of the Subtlety of Thay series. Support of Ch 2 standalone has ceased.
Note that v1.4 and higher are compatible with SoZ. There are currently no means for me to reasonably test and maintain earlier versions or versions without SoZ. Play at your own risk.
Note that v1.4 is not compatible with v1.3 or earlier saves. If you have DLed v1.4 on a v1.3 or earlier save, DL the SoTHak1.3.7z file and replace the exiting 1.4 hak with that.
Installation: If you are unsure about how to install a NWN2 module, see the readme. There are detailed instructions on how to do so.
Always check to make sure you have the patch that matches the patch in this entry! You WILL find bugs if you don't, and I can't help you fix them if you're on an old patch.
Compatability:
This campaign has been tested with TonyK's AI, Kaedrin's PRC pack*, and ladydesire's PRC pack*
*Note that there is a caveat with these two pieces of community content. See readme for details.
Frequently Asked Questions/Issues
Q: The combat is really hard.
A: Yes, it is. givexp from the console or using a higher than recommended level character are both options if you don't like hard combat. I do, and designed it that way. Nothing is impossible to defeat at the level range recommended, though.
Q: Help! I can't level up Aleandra, it crashes when I try!
A: You need to update your game to 1.13 or later.
Q: When Aleandra joins my party, she is a warlock. That doesn't seem right.
A: It's not. You either didn't install the mod correctly, removed the packages.2da from the override, or have another packages.2da in the override conflicting with it. Make sure it's the only one in there and try again. She should be a cleric.
Q: I'm trying to get into House Scipi's basement, but the fog of war doesn't disappear.
A: Use WASD movement to get in there. It's some kind of weird engine bug where when you open that door the fog of war doesn't disappear from the room. Just walking in will make it disappear, but since you can't click that area you need to use keyboard movement. I can't fix that.
Q: I'm on the Botuf the Black quest chain, and I can't find the elven tribune...
A: There's only two "elven" buildings in the city, and it's in the basement of one of them. It's a little difficult to access so you'll have to find a way.
Q: I don't know who my patron house is after the banquet.
A: It's in your journal.
House Scipi - located in the noble district, he's upstairs in the bedroom.
House Danworth - located in the noble distrct, he's in a room to the left of the front door at the head of the table.
House Scipi - located in the Market. He's standing near a fireplace on the first floor.
House Halvasyn - located in the Noble district. She's right in front of you when you enter.
The Apprentices - located in the Palace in the throne room, the woman in purple.
The Palace - located in the Palace, the guy sitting on the throne.
Q: Help, I'm lost and don't know what to do next...
A: It's very important you pay attention to what's going as you play. A lot of things happen and aren't repeated or referenced again, and sometimes you need to take into consideration what you do know and figure things out on your own. You can contact me about that and I'll be more than happy to help you, but keep this in mind as you play and you may not find the need to.
