Sry it may sound like stupid question but how to combine reagents ? I couldnt find this part in the manual ... and in the game tips it says that i just have to use the radial menu but there are no options related to the combining of reagents.
Example: in Chapter 2 of the original NWN there are 5 books, quest items and every one of them explains how to combine different reagents to get a potion or spell of some kind.
Like combining silk gland and skeleton knuckle and invisibility spell.
How should i combine them ? Do i need a special item to put them in or a feat that i dont have still ? or my class simple cant do this? ( im ranger btw)

Avlis has it's own crafting system. Ask around, as the lowest recipes and how to do them are common knowledge. That and most people are practically unstoppable once they start talking about their chosen craft. They won't tell you how to make anything, but you will be hoping they get arthritis before it's over :D

Oh, and FOIG (that's Find Out In Game). You'll see that a lot.

Crafting on Avlis is completely different.

Basically, in mechanical terms, you need to put the reagents on the crafting apparratus, then close it and click it again to open a menu. The menu will guide you through the rest.

I strongly suggest you make an IC posting about this, and RP learning the system with someone. You'll enjoy it... there are lots of independent crafters, and several guilds dedicated to various disciplines.

I'll be kind and let you know that, yes, you must place components into special crafting apparatus. There are different kinds depending on what sort of crafting you intend to do. Usually these are very easy to find in any given city.

The rest is FOIG! :D

Lol, people. This is NWN General Discussion, and besides, it's Necris asking it. Look into his past posts here- this is about the OC, not Avlis.

It's been a while since I've played the OC, but I remember that you had to put it into a placeable container (like a chest or a pedestal) in order to combine them. If Chapter 2 is the one in Port Llast, there is this woman in a shop, I -thought- in the northeast of Port Llast. There is a pedestal or something in her shop. Place the items on it, and cast the spell on it, and then whatever you created appears on the pedestal I think.

You need to be able to cast the spell you need, though, either from your class or from a scroll.
