Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn Hints

Last Job: Kicking Vampire Butt!

  • 1 of 18: Linvail will give you a bunch of stakes and tell you to go into the crypts and kill the vampires.
  • 2 of 18: Go there, and enter one of the crypt entrances in the very far northeast.
  • 3 of 18: Now proceed upwards over the spider webs until you get to a entrance with a mage with a golem next to him.
  • 4 of 18: Tell him you're ready and the golem will go open the door.
  • 5 of 18: Lassal will appear, taunt you, and send grimwarders at you.  The mage will die here.
  • 6 of 18: After you finish them, go up, and explore this whole place, killing vampires along the way.
  • 7 of 18: There are 2 vampires here besides Lassal who can be "staked" -- Gellal and Durst.  When they die, go to the big coffin room to the west, and stake the coffins that the sword appears over.
  • 8 of 18: Also, through a large secret door, there is a room with a big pool of blood. Use the pool twice to get a mace of disruption.
  • 9 of 18: Once you've cleaned out the place (except the spikes room -- don't go there yet), open the obvious secret passage where Lassal retreated.
  • 10 of 18: Go down and through the hallway and open the door.
  • 11 of 18: You'll be attacked by some vamps and grimwarders.  Kill them off (Negative Plane Protection is nice here) and go through the room to confront Lassal.
  • 12 of 18: He will retreat to the room of blood and spikes on the first floor, so go there.
  • 13 of 18: Go to the far side of the room, and HEAL the damage you've taken.
  • 14 of 18: Now attack Lassal -- he's really not too hard since he doesn't have too much support.
  • 15 of 18: Now go to the coffins and stake him!  Finally!
  • 16 of 18: Now, the evil vampire lady Bodhi will appear and EVENTUALLY attack you after a long talk.
  • 17 of 18: Use Negative Plane Protection and take her out -- she's not too hard.
  • 18 of 18: Once you deal her sufficient damage, she will initiate another short dialogue and run away.
