@MegaLipid According to the manual it's the gods who are intervening on his (Tethtoril's) behalf. It is possible to kill him when you return to Candlekeep later in the game.
@MegaLipid I really don't know. Maybe it's a Forgotten Realms lore thing (of which I have little knowledge). Maybe Bio just put it in so you couldn't kill him in the prologue.
fighting gorion is a very good way to get easy, easy experience before leaving candlekeep. charm him, then go to the inn. once you sleep, he will be unable to cast spells. then you just steadily hit him and go back inside to rest. he has about 350 HPand hes worth 4000 exp. then you just import your character and your reputation resets!! killing everybody in candlekeep is worth it. Firebead is worth 2700 exp and there are several worth 900. just dont try attacking tethroil. trust me
@Owneador1337 yes you can kill every single person in Candlekeep except tethroil (i think). the singers are worth about 175 each if im not mistaken. Using Gorion as a meat shield, you can kill everyone as a level 1 mage. Just stay away from tethroil, he automatically kills you. i think the game made him invulnerable because he's integral to the plot, but allowed for the Gorion loophole because he actually gets killed later. just my theory though
@Owneador1337 No, thats why i said to export your character. it would be very hard to get away with killing anyone and still getting to leave candlekeep. All you do is do whatever misdeeds you want, (also recommend going to the gatewarden and grab your temporary partner's stuff) and exporting it. You retain ALL experience, items, level, ect. but your reputation resets to whatever your alignment is and its like you never did anything
BG's and the old Fallout's (and PS: Torment, I think) are full of little cool exploits like that :P. Not to mention all the quests you can complete, then kill the NPC, and recover the item you brought to him/her with no loss of reputation and right in front of a few guards.
@Owneador1337 yes all fantastic games, though this one is probably my favorite game of all time. i thought i was the only person who knew about this,(because i found it while goofing around) but thats the internet for ya. i must have searched almost every square inch of the map, killed drizzit, had 20 magic missiles, found firebead again and killed an immortal demon. great game
My favourite (of this genre) are Planescape Torment, BG1 and BG2, in that order; and I find Fallout 1&2 to be the "weakest links" here. Though cool skills and such, the characters that get to go with you are pretty flat.
Yeah but there's not much point in staying alive since the game is knackered. Hmmm...wonder what would happen if you cheated yourself to another area?
Well I tried it and basically the game never gets out of the prologue. Sarevok doesn't appear and arriving at Nashkel doesn't advance you to Chap 2, nor does completing the mines. So you can never get to the bandit camp or beyond.
interesting... One thing I noticed about your vid though, is how crappy the graphics and interface look. Im now playing BG1 with the "easy tutu" mod. Wow, it really breathes new life into the game. It basically allows you to play BG1 with BG2s engine = higher resolution, I play at 1024X768, and allows for character banter, and weapons + armor and everything else that BG2 has. An amazing mod
Yes, I've played it. An excellent mod and a great achievement. Some of the kits available are a bit game unbalancing though but I suppose you can always counter this with other mods. Sometimes I just prefer to play the original :) (and I'm not sure that this method of killing Gorion works with Tutu).
lol ... how can you even come up with something like that :D

@Vidrinskas Why would the gods be intervening for Tethtoril? He's like a third-string plot character

@AlexLoeher But can you advance in the plot if you kill Gorion? I mean, I just played that part twice and I REALLY felt like killing off the singers.
