    I have been lugging around some extra stuff in my bag of holding for 3 chapters including: a couple of dead cats, dead bodies, broken weapons, broken armor, etc. I am afraid to dump them in case I need them later in the game. Does anyone know if they are still needed? I keep running out room in my bag of holding.

    Were are you in the game? Anyways, you don't need broken armour for any quest or mission in the game, so you can drop it. The dead cat is only used in the quest in chapter 1 were you have to give the cat back to the old lady. Check the IDII walktrough on this site for details.

    I've only gotten as far as chapter 5 so far, and I can tell you that there's at least one place you'll want to have some broken armor/weapons and another you'll want to have a dead cat (but don't need it). I've yet to find a use for dead bodies or skulls. I suspect I know of a use for dead bodies but I haven't tried it yet. Something for a future party to investigate...

    You can do a quest in Severed Hand if you didn't kill Yquoq and if you have bodies but there are bodies in Severed Hand...

    So far as I can tell, you only need the cat for the old lady in Targos.

    Broken armor you can sell for decent buck usually - the broken weapons and such I never did find any use for outside of Oswalds repairing spell.

    And if you have a good collection of dead things you can freak Yquog in Chap 6 into fleeing, but *only* if your intimidation skills are high.

    I went in there with a rather impressive collection - about 6 bodies, 3 or 4 cats, spiders and skulls - and he only got flustered until I levelled up my talker and raised his intimidation skills.

    [​IMG] Bluey: I didn't know the thing about the bodies and Yquog. That sounds interesting, and i may have to try it out.

    Khelban: What's this quest/event with the Severed hand and the bodies??? *You've got my Interest.. Don't leave us all hanging*

    They are both talking about the same quest. It's in towards the end of Chapter 6.

    I have been lugging around the 2 piles of rubble from the deadfall trap in the glacier. They weigh 10 pounds each and won't go in the bag of holding. I am also carrying several notes and keys, the auril amulets, an excess ingrediant from the alchemy laboratory, and the initiate robes.

    Perhaps you need to have a garage sale? All that stuff is very useless and is wasting space and weighing you down...

    Just remembered: I'm also carrying half a dozen bottles of wine and the hearts from the heartless dead.

    You were supposed to place the heart of the Heartless Dead on the ground in front of them...
    Then they would have picked it up and disappeared...

    would you get more exp by keeping the hearts and killing those undead?

    (since I think keeping the hearts makes them attack whoever is carrying them?)

    Wait, so the bodies are only useful if Yquog is alive? Damn, I ripped his skull off and shoved the bodies of his minions down his neck, and then restapled his head on backwards and kicked his body around a bit for fun WAY back in Chapter 1. I've been carrying the bodies and cats for nothing!!!

    And dude with the aurilite necklaces, ditch those (can't sell them) and get rid of any keys you have.

    Well, I only talked to someone who told me about the heartless dead hearts after I had already released and killed all the heartless dead and saved over my saves.

    If u keep the dead cat found in the warehouse you can learn its fate(how did it die)by talking to the 3 mercenaries(the guys with the red armor)found in the Palisade
    I am not sure though whether u get more XP if u go afterwards and speak with Firtha

    Yes, but it's not much. The SP IWD2 Online Solution has the exact number.

    Actually the guy is killed easily in the very beginning chapters. That's the best way out the problem.
