I was planning to start a new dual fighter druid once I've downloaded Baldur's Gate trilogy. The plan was to play a fighter (actually a Berserker) through BG1 and then dual to Druid at some point in BG2 and take the char all the way to ToB.

So I tried making that dual fighter/druid and cheated it up to regaining active in BG2 and something struck me.
When I dual a fighter to druid the druid weapons limitations stay with me while the armor restrictions don't apply. I remember that with a mage all restrictions were gone (except for not being able to spellcast in armor).
So which advantages/weaknesses will a dual fighter/druid actually have?
And how did they implement that into the game? After all a fighter/mage can use Soul Reaver +4 for all they care but the druid can't use a dagger?
