During my perilous adventures with my solo Kensai(This is probably the first kensai in the history of BGII that doesnt use staffs, katanas, long swords, or bastard swords),I tried my hand at the Umar Hills quest. During my assault on the shadow horde, i turned the pane on the window to focus the light into the crystal. But it wouldn't kill the shadows. Anyone know why?

You have to stand close to the crystal and let the shadows approach you. Once they get close to you/the crystal they will burst into white flames.

If you have already done that then I am not sure what has happened there, but they do not all die as soon as the crystal is activated, thats for sure.

B)I'm not sure what's happened here either [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well, all I can think of is if you have a save near that point, re-load and try again. It is rather odd for this to happen.

I assume you have all the patches and fixes etc...

<span style="color: lightblue">You did actually focus the light, didn't you? You need to use the mirror twice.

Well it doesnt matter, I lead them to one side of the map, and let the Boots of Haste do the thing they do.

Even though I still got past them, I still want to know why it didnt work. ToB, Virtue, and Ease-of-Use are all installed.

I don't think any mods change that... I am not sure what went wrong. After clicking on the mirror twice, the Shadows who step too close to the mirror should die.
