Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer Hints

Preparation Tips

  • 1 of 7: Equip all the items you have that protect against negative energy.
  • 2 of 7: If you sided with the city's defenders (or at least managed to get Zoab and Rammaq killed) you'll have two good items for that.
  • 3 of 7: The Deathless Diadem that you got from Rammaq is the best, and you'll probably want to put it on whichever companion has been following you through the dreamscape area.
  • 4 of 7: The Bracers of the Inner Planes that you got from Zoab are fairly good, with a 20% resistance to negative energy. You might want to put those on your character unless you have something much more important in that slot.
  • 5 of 7: You might also want to rest 8 hours to heal and rememorize spells. It'll cost you some spirit energy, but you'll be able to regain energy frequently during the final fight.
  • 6 of 7: If you have Safiya with you, fill up all her 9th level spell slots with Bigby's Crushing Hand, which is a good spell to use against Akachi.
  • 7 of 7: And be sure your companion has plenty of Potions of Heal to use. He or she will be a very valuable distraction during the fights. (You might want to equip the Lyonsbane Ring on yourself so you can quickly resurrect your companion if you don't have the Bestow Life Force feat.)
