I like the returning frost dart as well. I am not a dart person normally but after finding a couple returning darts I now give my mage darts instead of a sling. Otherwise I would keep running out of ammo since both my rouge and druid are using slings. Darts are actually not bad I have just never considered them in any of the other BG or IWD games.

I've found a REALLY nice missile weapon. There is a Returning Fire Bullet in the game somewhere which I gave to my mage to use with his +4 sling. So yes, there are some nice missile weapons in the game.

The arrow is enchanted so it returns by magic (some sort of teleportation to the owner of the arrow enchantment). So once it hits its target it disappears and reappears back to the archer, at least this is how I like to imagine it. Of course other people will have other ideas of how they prefer to picture it.

You may want to keep them until you get to kuldahar, though.[/QUOTE]Why sell them in Kuldahar?? You get more cash if you sell them in somewere like "The Wandering Vilage", you also get more money depending on who you sell them to , or if you've got that Feat... ...whatever it was... ...the one that gets you 5% of all items you buy and 5% extra to what you sell...

only humans and a select group af other races can use it, though.

+4 weapons are kind of hard to find before kuldahar, especially if you don't complete battlesquare.

Isn't the 5% off thing called Merchantile Background? It's one of the reasons my bard is human, so I can get an even larger discount.
