This Drow Ranger is a benevolent but harsh member of the Drow clan who boasts his famous dual scimitars in his arsenal. As a bonus character in the game, Drizzt must be unlocked through extreme difficulty in order to be playable. That means you have to play through the game once and complete the gauntlet level to unlock the extreme difficulty mode (you then have to start a new game and complete that as well). When you play this bonus character, he'll start at level 16 with 122,000 experience points.

Along with the Dwarven Fighter, his main strength is in using two weapons; he also has the ability to keep lots of items in The Gauntlet mode and he begins with a head start experience wise. His starting level makes the beginning dungeons very easy. However, his magic is terrible and has a slow regeneration rate. Even worse, his long range attack is terrible and is the only person that cannot use the bow. As such, you are forced to get within melee range of every opponent. The weapons he begins with are exclusive to him, and cannot be sold or dropped but can be a worthwhile weapon to use if you like to chop up enemies.

You won't be able to use any other weapon ever so these are the only weapons he'll use for the whole game namely the scimitars.


For the stats recommended that you start with this character in normal difficulty, his strength should be the first important stat to upgrade. Constitution and Charisma can come later to help with health regeneration and shop item prices. Endurance, intestinal fortitude and toughness should also be upgraded as important with the other characters if they want to last in the game and be able to carry a ton of items on the way.

Of course he only has two magic spells provided that you also upgrade meditation and willpower. To make him as effective as a powerful fighter, combat reflexes increases the speed of the attack and dodge for armor so you won't die easily.
