Introduction

With Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn, Bioware and Black Isle Studios hope to improve on the game widely whispered to have saved the RPG genre, Baldur's Gate. The game boasts an amazingly large amount of gameplay, with numerous major quests that span seven chapters and many smaller quests that depend on which character class you choose to play. New third-edition character classes are included, such as the sorcerer and barbarian.

This guide contains everything you'll need to know to master the game, including:

Tips on creating and developing your main character
Details on all the spells and types of weaponry you can acquire
Information on your friends and enemies
A detailed walk-through of the main story of the game

We'll also tell you how best to defeat your enemies and give you tips on which spells to learn and which to pass over.

Before you start reading here, however, we highly recommend you take a good hard look at the game manual. The folks at Black Isle, Bioware, and Interplay once again did an outstanding job with the book, and as such, we've left out information that is well explained in the manual. If you're new to AD&D RPGs, read the manual cover to cover before beginning the game.

Good luck, little one. May you fare well in your travels.
