Originally posted by rodimus: OK, I just started a new game, this time I try to solo, which I thought is very tough, but with my Mage/Fighter/Thief, its easy, cause you can tank, cast stoneskin on yourself, go invisible, but now my question. I never tried backstabbing, cause I didnt like thieves. Now I tried it, but it never happened. What is it that Im doing wrong? I have 100 in Hide in shadows and move silently, but when I hide in shadows, I go towards the enemy and attack, and its just a normal attack. May I only use one weapon? I dual wield the Celestial Fury and a Longsword +2, so how to backstab???

You need to be behind the enemy to backstab. Move around to where his back is and attack from there. You can backstab with any bladed weapon a thief can use, which excluded 2H swords and such. Katanas and longswords are ok. Piercing weapons like spears are out since thieves can't use them. You can backstab with 2 weapons if they both hit.
