Hi guys!

I am grooming a fighter to dual over to Druid, specializing in Scimitars. Have several questions.

I see the following in Conlan's shop:
* The Lucky Scimitar -- Scimitar +2, Wielder always under the effects of Luck, can cast Luck 1/Day. Now, it DOES have a bonus of 2 to THAC0, AND it gives the user some magic abilities; BUT it does not have the blue "magical item" border when displayed in Conlan's shop.

QUESTION 1: Is this item considered a +2 weapon for the purpose of hitting monsters that require a +1 or +2 magical weapon to damage? (I don't want to pay $3000+ for this just to get the ever popular "weapon ineffective" message when engaging a mummy or imbued wight, etc.)

QUESTION 2: Any better scimitars waiting out there for a Druid specializing in large swords (and constrained to scimitars)?

QUESTION 3: How do druids acquire spells? (I have a ways to go before worrying about this: need to get my level 7 fighter up to level 13 before dualing over; but I am curious.)

QUESTION 4: I intend to have 4 proficiency points in bows when I dual over. Can Fighter/Druids uses bows (when fighter skills become available after the dual over)?

Thank you.

Party On!
