I'm still in the first chapter of TOB, and my group has 7 new +4 weapons, 3 new +5 weapons, a new +6 weapon, and one of my old weapons was upgraded to +4. I find so many +3 weapons, I don't even bother picking them up anymore. Does this strike anyone else as insane?

I think it is ok....consider the quantity/quality of foes you will be facing during these last chapters (i.e. better be prepared than to remedy).

Long live H22A1!!!!!

I can't say I agree, when it comes to the point that you can't decide whether Jaheria should equip her +6 staff of the ram, +6 Ixit's Spike, or dual wield a combination of +5 club of detonation, +5 dagger of the star, or +4 spectral brand; things are a little out of control.

Oh, my friend!! I agree.. When I found a +5, I nearly choked on my drink! and what?!? A +6?!? I've never had a +6.. (Even in Pools of Darkness).

I know it's going to be the last BG game, and our characters are going to he high level, but even DRIZZT doesn't have a +6!

Maybe, but at level 40 and being the Child of the God of Murder, you could solo Drizzit ... Er if your a mage anyways.

If Im level 40 anything I better be able to stomp level 15 drizzt into the ground with no problem.

So If a level 15 character has +3 to +5 weapons, My level 40 character should have +5 and +6 weapons, SO I don't see a problem.
They made TOB so that they could get one major powerful weapon in the game for each weapon type, so that you could get a great club, or a great mace, or a great flail, depending on your character.
The only Great weapons in BG2 were for the Paladin, The +5 warhammer, the +3 katana, the +5 sling, and some +4 staffs, halbards, 2-handed swords, daggers, etc. They wanted one of each (at least) weapon to be in TOB that would stand equal to some of the other great weapons.

+6 enchantments aren't even allowed in 3E by the rules.

[Nerull]

But this is a 2nd edition game, and there are +6 weapons in this edition.

If we think that that's overkill, chek out this death blade!
put in the clua create item: killsw01 to get a blade that kills in ONE SHOT
does about 1000 damage. like cntrl y whitout the no exp gain. Even clerics and mages can use IT!

That sword was implemented in BG2. It is equiped by an NPC who kills the party if they attack the shadow thieves before Bhodi sends them.
