For my thief, boots of speed is GREAT!

In my original adventures of IWD, my thief Picco had acquired the boots of speed and he'd run around the map to scout and detect traps. However the most advantages came from when I wanted to take out lone, but very difficult mobs. I would have Picco backstab, run away to shadow and hide in shadow, go back and backstab, rinse and repeat.

I know the backstabbing is kind of cheezy but it was great for scouting and it saved me alot of time exploring the map.

In HOW, it appears that the boots of speed is disabled. I get "Uneffected by boots" message when I wear the boots. I discarded that boot and got another one in the Severed Hand, but it doesn't work either. I get the same message.

What a shame, I have very little patience and liked IWD because characters in general walked faster than BG. In HOW, they seem to walk slower and no working boots of speed =(
