Transitioning from BT1 to BT2

[peacefighter]

What should I expect when completing BT1 and moving on to BT2? Importing characters? Items in Safe Deposit? Coins saved in the bank? Thanks for your inputs.

You can have one of:
a) Everything transfers except a few quest items
b) Most stuff transfers, but your characters are dropped to a sensible level for BT2
c) Only your characters transfer, and they are dropped to L1, but with *perfect* starting stats.

Thanks for your input, //kaypy//.

Let me understand this: It's either (a), (b), or (c), right?

What about all the coins in the bank, what become of them? And the items stored in the safe deposits? Would I be able to reclaim them? Thanks again for your help.

You get to choose when you do the transfer

I'm pretty sure the everything option should be *everything*. I suspect (b) will keep bank stuff too. Obviously a full reset won't keep any of that stuff. If you want the exact details, keep a backup save of BT1 while you check it out?

Thanks again, //kaypy//.

One thing isn't clear to me: if you choose option a), do all the characters transfer over in that particular save series, or just the 6 or 7 who completed the first game? I created several characters that I want to use in BT's 2 and 3, but whom I don't want to use in the BT 1 endgame. (Besides which, there're 10 altogether.)

I also have another set of characters saved, but of course they're in a different save series. (One series named Balvenie, the other named Laphroaig. I would assume that if I won BT 1 with Balvenie, that I couldn't port over Laphroaig until I'd completed BT1 with it--correct?))

Somebody said that all characters in the game transfer, including those left behind in the guild. Though you do have to actually complete the game and I think only savegames made with that save series can be transfered.

Thank you, GandGolf. (Love your username, BTW!)
