News of the Realm! =============oOo============= NEVERWINTER NEWS Issue #12 Week ending December 04, 1993 HO! HO! HO! ------------------------- Santa's coming to town!! Look for NW Santa at various times during the month of December. You'll never know when he'll be there but he'll be practicing for his Christmas deliveries in Neverwinter Nights! You might have to find Santa before he moves on or you might have to give Santa something he needs for a special person, just watch for banners. Santa will also be giving away Gold Box versions of Neverwinter Nights and free time during the month, so look for your name to be announced! Happy Holidays! HELP! HELP! HELP! ----------------------- Having problems staying alive in Neverwinter 2.1? Don't get frustrated, it seems to be a common problem among the players of the newest Realm. Even those whose characters are fully maxxed seem to run into a few battles that leave them sitting at the gate when done. While traveling in the treacherous realms of 2.1, make sure that you are adventuring with a large party. The vile creatures that lurk the realms seem to fall easier when faced against a large group of adventurers. If a Magic-User is among the ranks of your party, using the spell "Enlarge" can greatly enhance your odds of winning a battle. Another problem facing the adventurers of Neverwinter 2.1 is the never ending hole that is burnt in the pockets of each player. Trying to find money can be a hard task in the new realms, but it is out there to be found. For those of you traveling in the regions closest to Neverwinter, make sure that you grab as many items that you can, that way you can sell them at the Armory when you return to town. For the more daring players who test their skills in the outer regions, gems are not as easily found as they are in Neverwinter 1.0. You might want to grab as much platinum from the battles as possible, and trade it in for jewels or gems when returning to a town that has a Jeweler among the shops. Enjoy!! DROW THEAT ENDING? (Submitted by DP TS) ------------------------------ (WindyCliffs) Apoth in a press release today informed all of Neverwinter that they had found a possible cure to the dreaded substance, Oloth. "Testing has proved that eight out of ten Oloth infected subjects have been rid of the cursed filth, by administering the salve we have dubbed, Prosilin. In a old term it means, Light's Ascent." Tar Ritan, of the Grey Company,. was present and overjoyed that he had been restored to his physical state. His only comment was, "Where's the mineral water?" Apoth would not comment on the effects that Prosilin had on those who had not been transformed back. Stomperr, Sage and Head Librarian stated that a press release that would be made some time in the near future would clarify all questions.

HELP! --------------- Going after the beholders eh? Well here are a few tips that might help you out. Make sure someone in your party has a few ENLARGE's ready, because of the naturally high magic resistance of the beholder, the best way to destroy one is with brute force. That's not to say that they are completely magic resistant though. Fire Shield is typically a good spell to use, although to be completely effective you must "force" the beholder to hit you by stepping away from him. Anytime the beholder makes a successful hit when you are fire shielded will cause the beholder to take twice the damage that it inflicts on you. Be careful though! Those with few hit points may find themselves very near death in a very short time when using the spell in this manner. Always remember that the spells beholders cast have a limited range if you find the combat filled with other monsters aside from the beholders it is sometimes best to step back out of the range of the beholders "gaze" and fire ranged weapons and spells at the lesser creatures so that you will have less foes to face when you stare down those beholders! Good Luck! For the Beholder's treasures are usually large, but the price may be your life!
