Icewind Dale II Hints

Can I talk the guards outside the main entrance into not fighting me?

  • 1 of 4: Only if you're lucky enough to have them talk to a character with a sufficiently high Bluff skill.
  • 2 of 4: Tell them you're delegates from the east. Even if the bluff doesn't work, you'll get some bonus XP for finding out there's a Minister of Affairs inside named Xavier Torsend.
  • 3 of 4: Fortunately, whether you fight or not out here doesn't affect any goings-on inside the Severed Hand.
  • 4 of 4: And, hey! You finally get to see (and fight) some real live chimeras! I know you've been wondering what that word was all about.
