your swashbuckler's THACO bonuses apply to missile wepaons as well as melee and that's good for a dualled to mage char - in case you don't know/remember about it you should know about the cast-and-attack strategy (basically in any one round you can both cast a spell and attack and you really want to be doing as much in a round as you can - it's easier if you turn on the 'autopause when spell cast' option although auto-pausing does change the game character a bit)

hope that's not all old news to you - and hopefully you've given you swashie->mage some missile *s!

Hey - have gotten seriously sidetracked (at least did not restart but did get this urge to play some NWN). Although I am again thinking about this party and the Blade, so I may come back to it this weekend.

I haven't had any experience with the scripts, suppose that is one thing that makes me take a while when I play these games, I tend to really like micro-managing the party. I have stolen quite a bit already (altho I missed the Fletcher's shop completely, will have to go back for it). And I got CF too - don't have Tactics installed for this run so getting it was pretty easy.

But first I want to see how good an Assassin is in NWN with one level of Shadowdancer and maxed out Hide/Move Silently ;)

Always visit the fletcher's shop. He has the ever-powerful Arrows of Dispelling. Like tiny Carsomyrs. That don't grant MR.
