I got a better way of getting top scores, WITHOUT cheating. If you're a class which doesn't need strength 9 or 12 or whatever, simply wait for a roll of 93 (not hard), then give yourself 3 strength, and all the rest 18. Then, once you get out of Irenicus' dungeon, simply buy the girdle of hill giant strength. Voila, 19 Strength, everything else 18 [img]smile.gif[/img] <hr></blockquote>

Not an easy tactic when you are soloing, Jon Irenicus' Dungeon will be a bitch to do and the beginning of Chapter 1-2 until you gain enough money.

Assuming that you are a solo Warrior that is.

While we're on that subject, 18/00 is the highest, right? I mean, it's better than 18/86? My stepson and fellow party member asked me that question, and I said that probably it means that you have (say) an 86% chance of getting a hit if the roll was 18=miss,19=hit. If you follow me. But now I'm not so sure. Comments?<hr></blockquote>

yes 18/00 is the highest you can get normally (1/2 orcs can get up to 19 i believe) it gives you a bonus to your chance to hit an opponent, ie 18/86 gives a bonus of +2 to the attack roll (a random # between 1 and 20 the computer "rolls" to determine if you hit or not) and +4 to the damage you do when you hit. an 18/00 gives +3 to hit, and +6 to damage
