The problem is, at the low levels of EfU, these classes can only really be dipped into very slightly if you want to keep any kind of spell progression; having once tried hilariously to play a wizard 3 / pale Master x, even with the changes to ensure necromancy spells had pale master included in the spell level, i had barely any spells, very low circle even at 8, and very few spells per day.

That being said, pale Master has been adjusted to give them very powerful bonuses on EfU, albeit bonuses that almost certainly favour some kind of bard or bard/fighter build, while RDD naturally swings towards that kind of build anyway, which I would say is not necessarily a bad thing. Sorcerors get various perks which allow them to be a necromancer without really needing the pale Master class, alongside ones that help the more combat-oriented nature of RDD.

Rather than change those two PrCs entirely, I'd suggest adding a secondary pale Master level progression, similar to how I assume Ascetic or Ritualist works which gives less bonuses but allows a wizard to keep their spell levels, or add new, more spellcaster-focused PrCs that allow a Wizard to keep their spell levels while giving them bonuses in certain areas; a PrC to focus more heavily on one spell school at the cost of others, a PrC to make a compact with some outsider or aberrant that, though giving them more power, slowly turns them into monsters that most PCs would despise, etc.

Although I don't really see this as a massive problem, both sorc and wizard are pretty good as it stands without PrCs.

i've never seen anyone try and FD complete strangers in a low level questing area because their PCs aren't cowards or liars before, so that was interesting i guess?

i once did a sternhund quest in which all pcs were transformed into whisk(e)y oozes for the duration. stardog4lyfe

cute, i like it

there was a wedding on efu that didn't turn into a cursed magic ritual / terrorist attack? this really is the end

Just a heads up and an apology for my limited availability recently, will be completely off the radar until this monday and then i'm back on track.

brilliant PC, literally every time i met her something awesome happened.

The Unquiet Dead - Spirits of all creatures unwilling or unable to pass from this world into the next, creatures such as these were known in the Underdark previously; the End of All Times has only served to swell their numbers.

Fairly weak ghosts with 50% concealment and various weakening auras / spells

EfU:

Omalier Essraul, an Elf who wanted to join the Watch, ended up making pals with Murien Zirkin and joined the Seekers in their rebellion; didn't make it to the end.

EfU:A:

Berelle Cestara, a eunuch, gentleman's gentleman and man-servant for hire in an Old Port slavery prelude. Served as the personal assistant to Germain's Stygian until he eventually turned to Moander, became property of Sharboneth; apped for retainer but was made an unpaid guardsman. Lost interest in him quickly.

Isidore Olmos, the sickly, pathetic and cowardly Amnish noble who managed to become a Magistrate through trickery, high-up friends, and of course joining a devil cult. Became a pale master to ensure he didn't die of illness, decided he wanted his soul back, and through an entirely accidental cluster-fuck helped kill the devil and was set free. Joined the Conclave when it started, but at the cost of his Magistrate seat.

Datsa, a stargazer who was a prize slave to a Calishite noble, she was taught proper enunciation and the ways of civilization; murdered her master's children and fled to Ymph as soon as she was trusted, tried briefly to be an old ways chick but found Orgeribbit much more fun.

Kiyiya Minqua, a Wild Elf red indjun, rocked it out with tomahawks 24/7. Couldn't make it to the unleashing H'bala event and with the death of all nature PCs and the movement to EfU:M I decided to roll a new PC.

EfU:M

James Sterling-Sharpe, Paladin of Chauntea, Aberdenn Bannersman, friend to the Wyrm Watchers and the only honest soul to run for Mayor in his elections. Ran on an isolationist, anti-Conclavist front and made quite a few friends. Was abruptly assassinated outside the Aberdenn Hall.

Tancy Zephenia, a sensible, level-headed and careful wizard (read: boring) who constantly pussy-footed about; admired the aspirations and dreams of the New Netherese Empire but thought something funny was definitely up. Was eventually proved right when Razul exploded everyone, although wasn't savvy enough to not attend.

Aoife Caermyn, a distant cousin come back to sort the place out during Caermyn's exile, was trashed basically once a day by Aberdenn and Ordersmen. When a nameless Aberdenn NPC started mocking her outside Muskroot's, the insult was too much to bare, and she challenged him to a duel to the death. Died as she lived, quickly and embarrasingly.

Please marry me; hopefully that's the end of it.

Could you elaborate on sound options? Completely fresh install, graphics on the bare minimum (no shiny water), was fine spending 2 or so hours in Sanctuary but  I went to the gate and within 30 seconds crashed; now every time I try logging in again at the gate I crash.

Thought the problem may be related to my crude manual movement of NWN from C to E drive, have reinstalled it and the EfULauncher, I am now simply unable to connect to the server at all; it either times out or crashes without exception. This has been tested on two computers although one of them was running through wine so that may be the problem.

Has nobody else had issues similar to these?

Although it has just occurred to me UnknownEnderman had the same issue the first time and he has only EfU .haks and no overrides. Potentially the two issues are unrelated though, we were both also getting some weird time-out stuff during the event.

The only override I have is Arc's reskin, and I deleted all .haks and redownloaded the launcher after the War on the Dark Lake problem; I'll try reinstalling NWN and the loader and will report back here if I still have problems.

very cool PC, sorry it ended so suddenly!
