Icewind Dale II Hints
Notes and Extras
1 of 5: Use the ALT key outside the Severed Hand's main entrance to help you find an artifact spear called Impaler.
2 of 5: In Xavier Torsend's room at the north end of level 1, there's a very peculiar artifact sword called Death's Bane in one of the cabinets. You can use this sword to heal your party members by attacking them with it!
3 of 5: You can get some XP by being unwilling test subjects. Just head around to the northern rooms on level 2, and a couple of red wizards will ask you to fight some demonic constructs they made. They will then snub you and teleport away, but that's okay. You can now raid their room of treasure, including some spells and a Master's Robe.
4 of 5: On level 3, send your most diplomatic person into the large SW room with the long-named gelugon demon in it. When it speaks to you, you should get dialogue options that will flatter it into letting you live, which gets you some bonus XP.
5 of 5: The large urn in Jaebrilla's room (north part of level 4) has an artifact helm in it that will protect the wearer against all forms of death magic.
