I'm starting my first fighter/thief. I figure I'll spec. in bows (short maybe) and longswords. I was thinking I should dual wield, but I can't do that and carry a bow at the same time, and I hate switching back and forth. Should I even bother with any of the weapon styles? Also, other than bows and long swords, what weapons should I go for? Shortswords maybe?
Please, no spoilers, I'm just looking for advice on proficiencies. Furthermore, would being an elf affect the romances? Thanks. |

Assuming you make it to ToB, *cough* *cough*, I will take Long Swords and Katanas, dual-wielding them.
If you are only doing SoA, then Katanas and Short Swords. -------- Considering the romance options are all Elven, being an Elf will not cause you to lose any of the romances. |

I thought I'd loose the Vic romance if I was elven. Not that it matters because I think I'm going for Jah, but still...

Without spoiling you, there are
some cool short swords, katanas, and scimitars in the game. |
