Icewind Dale Hints
Whoa, this level is big and the monsters are tough. Any tips?
1 of 6: Well, the only really annoying enemies other than the final boss are the Yuan Ti elite.
2 of 6: They carry bows and +1 arrows, and they never seem to miss.
3 of 6: Let loose when you run into these guys, with spells and such. You can always rest any time you need to in order to get your spells back.
4 of 6: The level, although big, is fairly logically set out. It's really just one big long hallway with a number of rooms branching off to either side.
5 of 6: You should explore ALL of these rooms, and I mean ALL. They contain treasures that you're going to need in order to kill the boss. Be sure to pick up all the +2 arrows in the room packed with Yuan Ti elite, and the throwing axe +2.
6 of 6: Be extra careful with traps on this level, and be sure that you've disarmed every trap on every segment of the hallway before you continue, as you may have to retreat back into them hastily, and you don't want to set off any traps.
