ok, for those of you who do not know who brus is he is the one who talks to you in the first 2 chapters and tells you to talk to gaelen bayle, i think thats his name anyways, but i was in the docks and i just got like 16000 gold so i had the 10000 to pay the shadow theives, and the girl valen talks to me about bodhi, then i see an army of brus' coming to talk to me, its just a glitch but i thought id share and ask if anyone else saw this before, also curious was that only half of them dissapeared after talking to me.

I have not encountered this. I think it is caused by an area script problem, so it creates many many of the same creature (a Global Variable is not changed properly. And other bugs may be there, considering your description). Such problems should not be in BGII. Do you have any mods installed?

 

I've encountered this occasionally with ToB installed (but without ToB patch).

 

Known issue for BG2; slated for inclusion on the next Baldurdash fixpack before Dorner's disappearance. I'm not sure if it's in the SP fix pack or not.

 

I don't know, but I can tell you that I have the SP fixpack installed, and I've never had this problem.

 

well i have no mods, nothing, i install the game and play it as i get it, so i don't think its anything like that. but it was not a huge problem. i got past it

 

For clarification, SP fixpack and Baldurdash are't mods - they're programs which fix numerous bugs that the official patch didn't address. I would strongly advise that you install one or the other (but SP fixpack works only if you don't have ToB installed, which I assume is the case here, since you're posting in the SoA forum).

 

I've had that happen to me before, except it wasn't Brus. It was the mayor and his wife of Imnesville? at Umar Hills. It looks like they casted Mirror Image a million times. IIRC it happened the first time through the game... before I even knew about the official patch. So I'm guessing that's your answer. I've never had this problem again, so rest assured that this is fixable.

 

I think this is a problem that invoves only Brus. It was an eerie experience to see a horde of that seemingly small kids swarming the slums and comming for you.

 

More and more bizarre experiences... I start to afraid. Never known BGII was so unpredictible

 

I wish I would have saved at that point, or could have saved, so i could launch a few fire balls in the middle of all of those little kids, it would have been firkraags dream.

 

No need to... screenshot of the Attack of the Bruses and its associated thread at FWS.

 

This happens to me too.

 

I looked at that screenshot, and that is nowhere near how many brus's that I saw on my screen, thats like 8 of them, I saw 15-20.

 

That's quite a scary screenshot The little buggers are quite organised obviously, they're coming from all sides.

 

If you kill one Brus, what happens to the others? Do they turn hostile?

 

@ David: Imagine... surrounded on all sides. Yelloow shirt wearing demonic-though-strangely-cute-child monsters approaching.
Keldorn shouts his holy rage and smites six before he was overwhelmed by the near beserk wave of mushy kisses.
Anomen bashes with is Mace of Disruption but found his own thoughts disrupted by the squeling of many fiendish children.
And the Child of Bhaal transforms to the Slayer only to be overwhelme by the all powerful strength of a group hug.

Please stop me... I am getting really scared...

 

zephyr, I can say honestly and without shame, I will personally never sleep easy again.

 

You scare me, I want my mommy!

 

I got ToB installed and I saw an army of Brus's in Amn, (Wakeens(SP) Promenade(SP?)), I don't have either of those fix packs either, but I do have the ToB patch, which tells me either Baldurdash/SP covers it or doesn't , haha quite helpful no?
