Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance/Gameplay

Teamwork and Strategies for all characters
Here are the things you need to know about this game.
 * There's bound to be lots of items for you to use when you break barrels, objects and attack enemies for their armour or weapon to fall on to the ground. Those items especially the ones you don't need can be sold to the shop owner who owns weapons and items depending on what act are you in.
 * Weapons and armour can be used to fit on to a person depending on how much strength or defence the items have. On Character Statistic Screen, there are tabs that you can look through. Weapons and Armour Tab is where you find those equipment.
 * Experience points goes up when you attack various enemies, depending on size. Think wisely because of the point system exclusive to the person and the character abilities, you don't want to leave your character at a disadvantage if he or she has weak defense, weak strength and weak regeneration rate which is the most important in stats category.
 * When playing with two people, you have to balance out between their strengths and weaknesses. For example, Arcane Archer and Elven Sorceress makes a great combo because the archer will shoot arrows and the sorceress can shoot magic at enemies. Dwarven Fighter and Elven Sorceress is also a good combo while she shoots the enemies with magic, he can take care of enemies up close with ease. Arcane Archer and Dwarven Fighter makes the best combo with the excellent archery range and close combat.
 * Manage your items wisely because all characters have weight and if it reaches the weight, you won't be able to pick up items anymore.
 * Plan the way you handle the enemies in the dungeons. Even though you can defend depending on what weapon you are going to use, you need to use health potions and magic potions to survive. You shouldn't just run in and attack especially when bosses has a high level of HPs.
 * Don't forget to use other weapons like magic and arrows if the enemies were too far away to reach.
 * If you don't know what your quest is, go to the Character Statistics screen and check the Journal tab.
 * Compared to a single player game, your character will level up at one half the normal rate when playing with two people. Although the difficulty may seem lower at first, it's still important to upgrade your character.
 * A special feature in the game is the ability to import your character from a previously saved game. As long as its a similar race, you'll be able to override your current character. The character you import will also transfer its items, points, experience, and status.
