when you go on the mission pack you can give all the decent stuff to the main character and export him. then using a new game import him and dish out some hardcore damage. however the creatures do seem to attack in larger numbers like at the start after you meet the wizard who looks like a red gandlaf i got attacked by about 10-15 diseased and normal giberlings not really a problem but when that stupid halfling takes a wound hes a gonner at the start.








also did anyone actually take on that mince guy with the 'space rodent'

It's actually a lot easier to download Gatekeeper. Allows you to edit characters, save games, equipment, spells, etc.

Either way, yes, I've tried Minsc, and let me tell you, once he gets into the higher levels, he is quite the powerhouse.
