Solo

Consider using one PC. I'm very satisfied as my character is finishing the game at 49th level as a priest/mage. When you need people with high Arcane Lore, Nature Lore, or Tool Use just "summon" a new character who can get the skill up to 16. Then delete them afterwards to make sure you get maximum XP. This is on the borderlands of cheating but hey, consider it a off-label use of the "summoning" spell.

Yeah, I killed Stanos before I even registered the demo so that's not possible. If all I get is a kiss then I'm good. How do I get familiar with the script.

Problem is I killed Stanos by accident. Also Crenshaw by Camp Samuels got killed by one of the orchard fungi as an innocent bystander. How do I get these two people back to life?

Tried going to philip but he just blows me off, no quest. I can't remember but I think I might have already helped him with his quest, way back then. Please remind me what the quest was again?

Trying to get into Thorious' daughter's room. Am I missing something. Can't seem to get the key. Thanks in advance for the info.

Aside from scattered spellbooks and occassional people who grant you a bonus point on skills (like luck and first aid), who can teach you the following spells/skills? Divine Host, Dispel Barrier, Arcane Blow, Arcane summon, Divine Restoration, Luck, Anatomy, Gymnastics, etc?

Since I am going solo, I have an abundance of money and eager to spend it on skills even ones I don't need. My procedure is typically to buy the skills/spells twice THEN use the books and people so I can get them to increase it to 3 or 4. Any teachers I might have missed? Please advise. Thanks in advance

How do you get the key for all the doors that Private Chelsea's key does NOT open. Can't seem to get the last inner gates just before R-I's encounter open. Please advise. Thanks in advance.

I even tried using slow in an effort to slow their regeneration, but have been unsuccessful. Can avoid them but hard to loot with them there. And let's be honest, they are irritating and should be destroyed.

Having trouble with the radiant pylons. Even staying out of their range, hasted, and using spells like lightning spray and weapons like bow of decay, I can't seem to kill the things. Even when they have only 10 hit points left and I blast them, the next thing I know they have 139 hit points left! Is there a special weapon or spell I should be using? Thanks in advance for your response.
