My TOB manual has gone MIA, and it dosent look like its ever coming back. So, I need to know what the above ability actually does. I mean, does it allow you to ignore every single usability restriction. Can a good thief suddenly use evil-only 2 handed swards, wear human leather armour, carry a staff of the magi and things like nalias ring or the corthala family armour.

Can I get proficiencies with weapons I normally coudnt use? could I back stab with a holy avenger sword? And would anything be able to survive a triple damage attack with a sword like that?. To say nothing of quintuple when i get around to restoring the original Imoen.

It seems to be a very powerful ability, the sort of thing any responsible GM would ban outright (so naturally i've been on the recieving end of similar countless times) so there must be a catch.

Hello Andrewas, welcome to Ironworks, I think you should post this in the Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal forum instead, however I will try to answer as well as I can:

A thief with this can use ALL potions, wands, scrolls and things that can be put in the quickslots, on things which do not fit in the quickslots, I think he can use anything that is not prohibited because of his alignment or stats, I'm not sure about anything other than the quickslot things though.

You can use anything. UAI ignores restrictions.

This does not mean you can put proficiency points in any weapon though, so yes... you can wield the Holy Avenger, but you will be unskilled in it, as thieves cannot place proficiency points in Two-Handed Swords.

Bards can though. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

One nifty thing is that you can wear helmets now.

with the ability use any item, your only restriction will be your strenght

I'm correct in assuming you wouldn't be able to backstab with any items other then the norm, right? Meaning no two-hand swords, no spears, ect.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
