My lvl 11 assasin has a base thaco of 15 and with the daystar its 12. Is that good? He misses alot when backstabbing. Can someone give me any suggestions on how to give my assasin a better thaco?

What's his strength? Is he specialized in long swords? Thieves have a lower thaco than fighters.

Is he proficient in longswds?
Try giving him: Better strength helps a lot Gauntlets of Weapon Expertise Better lonswords (ie +3) dual classed from Fighter? use another weapon with a greater enchantment... in BG2 longswd goes upto +3 but staffs go up to +4 and so do shortswds. |

Try building up his strength. Strength can add some huge bonuses to THACO. Give him a girdle, or that one long sword. (I don't remember the name.) There's a long sword that makes strenth 22.

That sword you are talking about (str 22) will show up in Tob. As you are lvl 11, you have a long way to go before you encounter that sword.

You could always refuse the guild as payment, then he'd give you the sword... seeing as the guild is a complete waste of time anyway
