An exercise in futility

Unread post by Pimple »

I know that posting this is pointless. But it needs to be said somewhere.

I WANT NWN2DB.COM BACK!

It's not for lvling up it's planning the path of your lvl up, if you ahve more than one Char sometimes it's hard to keep the builds straight. As well for those who do not know how to build it was a helpful tool to have as other ppl would make builds.

I would love it back as well my 4/5 tabs went dark and I thought it was my net. Refresh and it's just like Nah Man....I am still distraught..

Could do it old school, get the server test mod. Level up your stuff to 30 and then export the text file. I swear you could do that...I could be very wrong though lol

Last year when nwn2db.com was down for a couple days I created an excel spreadsheet I use as a backup. It turned out to also be a good way to plan builds using classes that aren't in the db (M@A, Thayan Knight, Shadow Adept...)

Someday our BG builder will get finished.

Don't you say that.

I have about 100 builds on there. And i play like 6 characters currently along with friends that use my builds from the same site. This is not good

old school sounds like hard school for someone (me) who has no idea what the "server test mod" is and how to "export the text file"

edit: old school to me is a players handbook and a piece of paper.

Am I the only one who saw this coming? I mean I had a little hope when they added custom builders for other servers but I always knew that the ads/layout/content hadn't changed in a long time before and after that. Then the virus problem a month ago or so and trouble contacting the owner.

Think of it as an opportunity to make our own builder.
