backstab question

Get over this little personal vendetta you seem to have against me.

Hi, Firestormalpha!

I'm not sure what the history is between Illumina and you, having just begun reposting here after a layoff of several months, but let me say that I wasn't quite sure myself whether or not you were being serious in the post in question. My own sense of humor sometimes has the same effect on people. You should have seen the brouhaha that happened here when I started the KFA thread as a joke. Oy ve!

At any rate, perhaps the use of smilies might help? [img]smile.gif[/img]

If you could backstab with the Staff of Magi ... that would be too power full!!! Imagine doing a backtab, than going invisible before your foes even know what happened and doing it again!!!

I just discovered a nice spell for any Thief-Mage. MISLEAD rules (until someone casts True Sight). You will become invisible and can backstab as many times as you want (as long as you do it from behind) without any need to hide in shadows. Your enemies will go after your misleaded image so you should be able to hit them easily from behind.

Really the staff is a powerful tool for backstabbing, anyway. All you really have to do is get behind the victim with the staff, pause the game, go to the inventory screen, replace the staff with an appropriate weapon, backstab, pause again, go to inventory, re-equip the staff, rinse and repeat.

I really like that trick with the Mislead spell. Thanks for sharing it [img]smile.gif[/img]
