Vedran: If you could send it, I'll be grateful. And don't worry, I've been meaning to get the Silent Blade for a long time, of course I'll buy it. Salvatore really is a good author, one of the best I've read. Once again, thanks for the offer. I think you can use the mail button to send it, I don't need to post my address...

Email button just opens a window to send an email, similar to PM one (cannot attach, and I don't feel like pasting the text there ). So I sent it to your MSN ID, as is written in your profile. Hope it arrives [img]smile.gif[/img] .

BTW, you don't have to post anything, there is always PM for private stuff (such is an adress).

I have one comment on Drizzt in the games:

He is so weak compared to the books. The problem is, Drizzt is master of parry. In the games, that should be something like, he gains an extra -10 to AC just because he is so good with his blades. I've seen his stats in 3E, and I cried... AC 21??? I didn't think so...

ARMOR CLASS 21 HECK NO!!!! I refuse to believe that. And whatd do you mean Drizzt is weak in the game. He's LEGENDARY I can hardly lay a finger on the drow. But the multiclass combo's are cool in the 3rd editon

10th level Fighter/5th level Ranger/1 level Barbarian(If you have read the books you must know sometimes he goes in a kind of rage.)

The part of him known as 'the Hunter' I believe.

He does have Twin Sword Style, so he can probably boost the AC to 26 or so... but still.... Even Zaknafain(lvl 20!!! fighter or so) had trouble breaking through his defenses...

Wait in the third editon rules wielding two weapons actually rasies your armor class? I doubt it the only benfit of that style is that you can block many attacks and do many attacks in one round! Most of the time he just parry parry parry slash stab slash stab parry stab slash parry. Haven't you noticed he rarely dodges and parries most of the time? So his armor class of 21 is understandable. Even though it less than we thought it should be Drizzt makes up for the AC with his parrying ability.

Question Mark

Off to the book store to see if they have Drizzt books. I hope they do.

Sythe: There is no parry skill in PnP DnD or BG. In my opinion, parrying is THE thing that raises AC. Really, someone with a sword can easily go through full plate, thus actually the high AC of it makes no sense. What would make sense is that with increasing sword fighting skill, your AC raises. Blocking someones' swipe and dodging are the only thing that would be able to avoid being hit when in real melee combat.
