Am I missing something? I'm very positive he has grandmastery, let me check...

Valygar's Proficiences:

Long Sword: *
Katana: *****
Dagger: *
Spear: **
Long Bow: **
Sword And Shield Style: *
Two Weapon Style: **

And this is at Level 24 Stalker.

Dundee, perhaps it was a mod I downloaded that allowed him to get grandmastery? I remember something of this sort: isn't the True Grandmastery thing? Either way, I just realized that he doesn't have grandmastery for his main weapon, but for his old weapon. Main weapon (long sword) now has just 1 proficiency. And Dundee, I didn't cheat to give Valy extra proficiencies, I just gave more to him as he leveled up.

The Grandmastery Patch does not grant Grandmastery to all, it merely makes Grandmastery back to true 2nd Edition rules. The blatant cheating of the Universal Grandmastery from the Ease of Use Mod does grant GM to all though. Remember, some Mods are cheats.

Ease of Use Mod allowed him to get grandmastery? I have that mod installed. Funny though, because not all of my characters can get grandmastery. Only Valygar, Sarevok, and Keldorn have grandmastery in a certain type of weapon. My other characters can't get there.

I was faced with the same choice as you, who to drop. If I was you I would keep Aerie and drop Valygar.

I dunno. Drop Valygar. I like Minsc's comments the best. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Sure, but when you've gone through the game so many times with Minsc, no matter how fun he is, you needa try someone new instead of him ;) . Besides, Sarevok can take up Minsc's position as a tank, and even fill it in better than Minsc can.

Ease-of-Use allows Grand Mastery to any character who would be able to have specialization normally. In an unmodded game, only true fighters can--Keldorn, Minsc, and Valygar wouldn't be able to.
