Hey there, I'm wondering if it's possible to disarm traps without being a thief, or having a thief in your party.
I also wonder if you can use shield when you multiclass to thief/mage, or if you have to be thief/mage/warrior for that.

Unfortunately, theres no way to disarm traps without being a thief or having a thief in the party.
And so long as one of your classes has the ability to use a shield, you can use a shield, though I believe thieves can only use bucklers.

Why?

Welcome John!

I think you're hosed as far as disarming traps without a thief. You can unlock without a thief, but you can't disarm without tripping.

If you are a mage/thief, you should be able to use a buckler only.

Now where did I leave that doughnut?!

I tried working with that problem about 3 weeks ago. All traps are run from scripts. I made a mage spell that found traps and gave a temporary remove traps skill of 90%, but it would have been useful only to dual- or multi-classed mage/thief. The biggest problem was that I couldn't enable/display the "detecting traps" button; the closest I could approach would have been to create a new script which gave the mage the modal state of "detect traps" and then the action of remove traps. In the long run, I might give that spell to mage/thief, but not now.

An intelligent mind is the key to the universe.

The most distressing thing about practicing magic is the fact that even the most learned sorcerers cannot accurately describe what magic *is*....
