My group is evil, so when we ran across the kidnapped noble lady, we decided to ransom her ourselves. Our ransom payment was a pair of silver pantaloons. I can't wear or sell them. Any clue what they are for?

What are they for? Why? It's just a reminder of your crimes for you! http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...l_laughter.gif

Seriouly, I don't think they serve any real purposes, much like the gold ones in BG1.

There is a conspiracy almost as big as the supposed cow level in diablo 1 over these pantaloons. Supposedly they are linked to some gold pantaloons in bg1 and if you descramble what someone in the asylum says they talk about it. I think these guys are lookin to hard if you ask me but if there are bronze pantaloons in throne of bhaal then they might be on to something.

If you want the full story on pantaloons, Gimmick, read The Pantaloons Enigma at this site:

I, for one, am going to be searching ToB very hard for more pantaloons. I want a full set.

Maybe the programmers wanted to play with us. If that's what they wanted, they got it.

So that's where the gold pantaloons came from ? Wonder what happens if you get the whole set

Tancred 05-05-2001 08:13 PM

A toss-up between unleashing incredible powers or the revelation of a terrible, despicable practical joke, I'm assuming. But I'm a cynical man at heart.

BRONZE Pantaloons? Oh no... and I took you for an observant man. It's not BRONZE Pantaloons you should be looking for....

Bg1 gave gold, bg2 had silver ones so if TOB doesnt give bronze ones then what SHOULD I be looking for wiseass?

wasn't nickel in one of the encrypted pantaloon-related messages from Wanev? Incidentally, are these trousers made out of the metal or are they just coloured that way? Because if they're made out of the metal, why would you be asked to launder the gold ones?

No, no, Wanev never mentions Nickel... as for the Golden and Silver Pantaloons, I think they must be made of gold and silver thread. The description of the Golden Pantaloons mentions Silver Pantalets and Nickel Panties, hence my belief that Nickel will be the third set. The fact that the Silver Pantaloons have no real description attached to them, this bears out my theory to some extent - because if they had, that would mark their status as a seperate item and not as attached to the Golden Pantaloons as they obviously are.

At least, I think that makes sense.

Tancred 05-07-2001 02:43 PM

Of course, the three kidnappers must surely have known of the significance of the Pantaloons. That was, of course, the whole point of the kidnapping - to get their hands on those valuable Pantaloons. After years of research into the history of the Planes, the mysteries of the universe and a final understanding of the Pantaloons Enigma, only a few deeds of criminal audacity stood between them and the ultimate powers of the Pantaloons. All you have to do is ask them.

What do you mean, you killed them? Oh, well... Just have to figure it out for yourself then, eh?

Maybe we can have our new personal smithy, the imp Cespenar at our Abyssal stronghold, forge a Pantaloon Plate +5? http://www.smilies.org/basesmilies/lo01l.gif

I can just picture it

The fields are clogged with the blood of the enemies. You climb onto the Throne of Bhaal to take your rightful place as the new God of Murder - wearing gold/silver/nickel pantaloons/pantalets/panties
.
What a sight!
