Another Throne of Bhaal Preview…

…and this time it’s at GameSpot. Spanning an impressive 5 full pages and including new screenshots, this preview should give you a good understanding of what the Baldur’s Gate II expansion is going to be all about. Here’s an excerpt:


    Since you’ll be able to reach about 40th level in Throne of Bhaal, thanks to the game’s massive 8,000,000-point experience cap, the game is a dramatic extension of Baldur’s Gate II. It’ll feature more than 40 new high-level spells for your magic-using classes and new abilities for all other classes in the game. For instance, high-level fighters will be able to unleash a devastating whirlwind attack, which rips any nearby foes to shreds. One of the new spells shown to us was Storm of Vengeance, a high-level cleric spell that summons forth a divine storm that slays all low-level creatures in the area instantly and severely injures all others with a catastrophic combination of fire, acid, and lightning. Perhaps what’s most interesting about such additions is not so much that you’ll have access to them, but rather that you’ll probably need such incredibly powerful attacks in order to survive some of the encounters in Throne of Bhaal.
