Nan, I didn't do any dualing it was for my assassin. He is level 18 now and just got x6 backstab, killed firkragg with traps and I would love to use either of those items you get.

I probably won't get ToB until I finish this game, and since I have the cap removed do I get the abilities retroactively?

Just for fun, what does a high level assassin go around wearing these days?

Use Any Item is a Thief high level ability, and you need ToB installed to get it.

OK, i created my female kensai to be dualed to thief. I gave her proficiencies with 2H-swords, and when i start getting more proficiencies ill put them on katanas or long swords, for backstabbing purposes (i think i cant backstab with a 2HS right?). The thing i love most on her is her portrait , its a very cool portrait of a beautiful female, with a robe and a big two handed sword, ideal for this character (ive used shadowkeeper to give her mage aspect [img]smile.gif[/img] ). And well, when i get the famous Use Any Item... scary.

Thanks a lot for your help !!

Its not that hard, just get a high strength bonus, high dex and high con. Specialise in Long Bow and use Composite long bows. Simple.

Hi Ertai!

My evil half-orc multi F/T is rocking SoA right now. With the baldurdash patches he'll be able to romance the one worthy mate for an evildoer, and his 19 strength adds considerably to his backstabbing. Later in the game he's going to enjoy using both Greater Whirlwinds and Spike Traps.

One thing I just thought of: he's going to get up to 5 attacks per round without using any whirlwind stuff. That high number of attacks means that his Assassination power will be immense, perhaps even worth taking!

Whichever route you take, enjoy your fighter/thief! They're some of the most fun playing in the game.
