Hello everyone!

Have you ever gotten a character to all 25 stats by playing through the games several times? I'm not referring to potions, spells, or items. What I mean is playing through the game enough times get tomes (BG1) or using the machine of Lum the Mad (ToB) to raise all your stats to 25.

In SoA you lose a few stat points. Have you played that enough times to get one or more attribute down to 1?

I have not done either (I assume Wishing your stats to 25 temporarily doesn't count).

If your stat goes below 1, you will actually die.

Note that, if you can cast Shapechange, you should be able to avoid the permanent stat losses. For the one in the dream sequence, try eating the brain of that demon. For the ones in the SoA endgame, try polymorph teleporting (this can be tricky).

Nope. That style of play is just not for me.

I`m not too keen on it myself. I was just curious.

No. I've read about quite some players who played BG1 only for being able to start BG2 with better stats but I wouldn't even do this.
