Minsc starts with two slots in two-handed sword, so that's a good option. If you are far enough in the game that you've given Minsc two slots in Flail, dual-wielding Flail of Ages in your primary hand and Daystar (or another Flail or Mace, since Minsc is specialized in Maces) off-hand would be better.

Hmm. Jaheira has a + or ++ in scimitar already, IIRC. I'm
in Chp2, and currently have her using the Gnasher (club +1, +2/round for 4 rounds(?)) in one hand, and the Fortress Shield in the other (AC -9). Should I switch out the shield for Belm, or should I give Belm to Valygar or Minsc or my main guy, none of whom have any + in scimitar? All three use a bow for ranged combat, which is why I never bothered switching to 2weap every time they close to melee. (That, and the party seems to do fine at combat anyway.) FWIW, Minsc uses the Ripper (+2 comp lbow) and Lilarcor (2hand+3); Valygar uses Celestial Fury and a long bow +2; my main guy (Corilon) is an elven F/M using the Blade of Roses and the Elven Court Bow. I also have Adjatha, the Sword of Chaos, Ilbratha, Short Sword of Backstabbing +3, and a few other items I keep around whenever I need domination protection or some such. |

If your main tank is dual-wielding, then give them Belm for off-hand. If you are happy with your tanks as is (i.e. using two-handed swords) then give to Valygar. Allows him to backstab with Celestial Fury, then stay in to hack up opponents even more so with the extra attack given by the scimitar (I believe the extra attack adds to the primary weapon, not the scimitar).
