Fighting Elminster is ill-advised. To say nothing of his overleveled stats relative to the party when he is encountered in Act One, he also leaves no loot and his hostility will lock [[Gale]] out of progressing in his personal quest. | Fighting Elminster is ill-advised.

If the player does successfully defeat Elminster in combat, though, the party is awarded 1000 experience. | ||

* When meeting Elminster, he will greet the party by saying "Ho there, wanderer. Stay thy course a moment to indulge an old man." This is a reference to the first Baldur's Gate game, where he greets the player the exact same way. | |||
