If anyone could tell me how to kill tazok in the bandit camp I would
really, really appreciate it. This guy has killed me at least 25 times
over the last 3 days now I have tried magic missles coupled with hitting
him with multiple fireballs, brute force (haha), acid arrows;burning
hands;color spray; stabbing, invisible sneak attack and... I can't think
of anything else. Maybe I should run some other quests but this seems
like the next general quest in line and know it is a personal vendetta I
want Tazok DEAD!!!!!

SPOILER BELOW:


I don't think you have to kill Tazok. I've done the bandit camp two ways.
First, if you beat the location out of Tranzig in Beregost, you can simply
walk there. In that case, Tazok's not at the camp at all.

Alternately, you can "surrender" to the bandits on the map south of the
bandit camp. They'll take you to see Tazok. He'll beat on you for a bit,
but if you fight back at least reasonably well, he decides you're tough
enough to make good bandits, and he takes off on a raid.

I haven't finished the game, so mebbe you've run into Tazok at another
bandit camp later on. In that case, I'd simply remark that a good thief
with a speed potion and a couple invisibility potions can backstab anything
into submission pretty quick :)

Argh. I was wondering why he wasn't there. Any way to find him and kill
him?

I killed Tranzig and found out where Tazok was from the scroll that
Tranzig had. If you go to the Peldale (or pelfeld or what ever it is
right below the bandit camp map) then you can run into one of tazoks
lacky boys.... I convinced him that I wanted to join them (becuase I had
killed him before and it didn't make a difference so I figured this time
I would join them and then back stab Tazok or something) and he ccepts me
and then the screen freezes... Arrrgggg!! He says follow me and then we
stand there and listen to the characters complain about how bored they
are. It locks out all side options like save and inventiory and stuff
but it will sit there. At first I though it was a test like noober to
see how long you would put up with him just standing there and bugging
you to see if you are patient and deserve extra experience but after half
an hour (I was trying to cook dinner too) they are still sitting there
complaining. so i had to alt tab to windows (couldnt even contol alt del)
So did anyone else have this happen or did I do something funky??

Stephanie ( I apologize for the run on sentences. I am running on 3
hours of sleep today. I would blame the misspellings and typos on that
but .... uhhh well I guess that would be a lie)

<problems with screen transition snipped>

I get the impression it doesn't always manage resources too well. My system
slowed to a crawl when being taken to the camp by a lackey and threatened to
crash out but eventually it cleared up. An hour or so later going from
Beregost directly to the bridge in front of Baldur's Gate for the first time
just dumped me out to the Windows desktop with lots of disk thrashing. This
probably doesn't help but it's just my take on it :)

Wow ! I didn;t even have to fight Tazok ! I beat the shit out of Tranzig
in Feldeposts, and talked to Raiken south of the bandit camp. I told him
I figured that joining the bandits was where the money was. He attacked
so I wasted him.

NExt, I waltzed into the bandit camp. Tazok comes up and I talk to him.
I tell him that HE is the power on the Sword Coast and I want to be a
part of the profit. He laughs and tells me I have run of the camp.

My main guy has a charisma of 17. Not sure if this matters.

Maybe, like Fallout and Fallout 2, you have to be sorta evil if the bad guys
are going to believe you. How high was your reputation? Since you do have
a charisma of 17, I suspect you're playing a Paladin, and like me, have a
reputation of 20. For those who got it to work, what was your reputation?

I think my rep was 14. But no, I am not a Paladin but a fighter mage.
