Start game with stronger character
The first Act of Beyond Divinity, even on the easier settings, can be a
frustrating chore because your characters are so weak and the opposition is much
tougher. This cheat can help you start with stronger characters and avoid
prolonged and epic battles with lowly Level 2 skeletons.
To start a game with a stronger character open the "Beyond Divinity" folder on
your hard drive, open the "Common" folder, and double click on the
"CharSelStats.dat" file. You'll be promoted to select a program to use to open
the file; select NotePad. [Be sure to either back up this file, or write down
the default attributes, before changing any text !]
Using NotePad, change the attribute numerals for each character class (Warrior,
Wizard, or Survivor, whichever one applies to the character you intend to use)to
higher values. For example, if you intend to play as a wizard, starting with a
level 9 Intelligence is helpful; for a warrior, upping the Strength or Agility
attribute to 10 or greater will allow you to promptly use some of the early-game
armor and weapons, rather than selling them or lugging them in your inventory.
When you're finished, Save the changes and start a new game.
