Icewind Dale Hints
Where can I buy stuff here?
1 of 8: There's a number of shops around Kuldahar where you can get just about anything you need.
2 of 8: To the east of where you come in there's a general store, which will buy just about anything. There's not much great to buy there unless you're a Bard, though.
3 of 8: To the north, you'll find Orrick's tower, where you can buy spell scrolls. He'll offer you more powerful spells as you progress through the game, so be sure to stop here from time to time.
4 of 8: Conlan's smithy is in the far northern part of the town. You have to walk up a path to get there, and it can be a little hard to see. You can buy most standard weapons and armor there, and he sells a number of good magical items, if you have the money.
5 of 8: To the east of the Smithy is Oswald's Skyship, where you can buy all the useful potions in the game, for a somewhat reasonable price. You should buy them from here rather than the temple of Ilmater.
6 of 8: Speaking of the temple, it is found down south of the skyship, on the eastern side of town. You can get healing there and buy potions, but you should go to Oswald's Skyship instead -- they're cheaper there.
7 of 8: In the group of three buildings in the center of town, you can find the tavern, where you can get something to drink if you're so inclined, and get some useful information.
8 of 8: Last, there's the Inn of the Evening Star, where you can go to rest.
