Yeah, Indomitable is Overpowered. If you can't be stunned / knocked down, there's really no danger of missing on a potion drink, except if you're grabbed / overwhelmed. Crushing Prison? What's that? Templars get 100% Spell Resist  Oh ho ho ho. Reallllly?

I should have upped the difficulty, but too late for that now.

Funnily though, the last fight (Mother), my Warrior was bugged or something. He was just running in place the whole time. So I didn't even need that. The game was so easy that I basically won with just Justice tanking and Velanna dishing out Perfect Storms.

Just finished, and not impressed. Whilst the pacing was good, the whole thing feels buggy, rushed and incomplete.

100% Agreed.

This is a really rushed expansion, not sure why they even decided on character imports and broke the game balance with more broken top tier powers that did not consider overall mechanics and munchkin items. Bodes ill for the sequel if they are really aiming for 2011 release.

Suffering from NWN 2 expansion syndrome, which I could never finish despite completing the original campaign.
After the game crashed at 20% Spirit Dragon HP, I decided not to give a fuck anymore and went to look for mods to mess around with Origins.

Buh? The NWN2 expansion was *much better* than the original game, which was only OK. Unless you're talking about the 2nd expansion, then never mind.

Just finished it.  Not a bad value for 40 U.S.  I like Runecrafting, stacked some sick shit with it. :)  Ran mostly with Sigurn, Justice and Anders.  Like those three.  Howe was cool, Velanna was  a harpy, so I never used her. 

I actually felt levelling was too fast.  Every time I kill a few darkspawn I had to stop and level someone.  Didn't realize I was on the end path and had to go against Mother with low provisions, which made the fight challenging.  Wish I had completed some odds and ends, wanted to  craft that bow, etc. 

Likes-Crafting, VK battle, tough decisions, story, new magic items, tactics, stacking bonus spirit damage!
Dislikes-Abrupt ending...wtf?  Burning the city (meh I'm an elf, burn the humies), too fast levelling.

It did feel rushed and incomplete, but overall I'm happy.  Hopefully, they'll put out DA2.
