    [​IMG] By the way, just as a hint about the difficulty of getting that staff, I would suggest that unless you are -

    a) an extremely high level party
    or
    b) suicidal

    you take along a scroll of magic protection.

    [​IMG] You'll not necessarily need a scroll of magic protection ... I personally preferred to use it in the beholder lair in the underdark (went there first) and I intend to use the second on Irenicus in hell or if everything goes bad, for the last group of the cowled wizards (yep, I'm metagaming ...)

    So I played the twisted rune without it ... and no one died! Near the x-cap though ... funny, hefty fight but I did it :) Supportive cleric spells are awesome ... but it doubtless is a high level fight.

    In the sewers underneath the Temple District there is a secret stash too. run your mouse over the circular valve openers along the corridors (sorry cannot think of a proper name. :( Looks like door valves in a submarine). I believe it's West of the Rakshasa/Kobold room. Has several scrolls & loot.

    My favourite item to date in the game is the cloak of mirroring (Sahuagin city, on some priestess on a bridge-like path [between two artificial ponds] north-east of the middle of the map) with this there's no need for magic protection (unless the bad guys have maze or dominate/charm [for this just get Lilarcor :D). It's not really hidden, but it kicks @$$.

    Personaly, I think that the fight for the Staff of the Magi in bridge district is to easy for a staff like that. I've never had any problem getting that one. Even when I soloed, it had been to easy.

    Oh, well, Cheers :D.

    I think there's a lightning trap on the gem in the Amaunator statue.

    How about staf of power? Never found that one, but it should be almoast as powerfull as the staf of magi. Well I might have found it, but it looks as a staf +1 so I might have throwed it away, but i think not.

    I've read several times on these forums something about a scimtar called wateredge (or somesuch) but I've never found it. Does it even exist?

    (Shouldn't be any of Drizzt's blades cause they should be called Icingdeath and Twinkle IIRC)

    IIRC, the Staff of Power is a staff made by your apprentices in the Mage Stronhold. I forget its stats, though. Water's Edge is a +3 scimitar; I believe it's found in the House Jae'llat in Ust Natha. You must take on the Gilded Rope Quest, get the Jae'llat Wardstone, go onto the highest story of the Jae'llat House, and there (I think it's there) it is.

    Water's Edge can be found in Jae'llat's House in Ust Natha....it's just a Scimitar +3, but with a nice gleam. It can be found in a trunk or cabinet....

    mmmh,C'Jacob was a little faster....

    And about Staff of Power: it gives you +2 to savingthrows and ac and it has something to do with a lightningbold of paralize or somewhat. And you can cast globe of invulnerability...thac0 is +2 iirc
