But doesn't that not allow u to use your spells and stuff? Is there any cloaks,or gauntlets, or something that helps your armor level, without blocking your ability to use spells? or should I treat my character like a mage, and always have her hide in the back....

Actually, you can exploit a bug that lets you steal 2 of certain items.

For Kangaxxx the lich, before he turns red, like before he talks to you but after he's appeared, you can pick a ring of gaxx from him. Then when you defeat his second form, you'll get another ring of gaxx. Pretty cool!

Why?

The Melodic chain armour will allow your character to still wear armour and cast spells. There are various gloves and girdles to increase your strength and I'd advise giving your guy/gal some proficiency with a katana and then equipping him/her with the Dak'kon's Zerth Blade +2 (Katana) which although only a +2 weapon will give you additional 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th level spells.

P.S. I'm not really dissing Bards per se, I used one expecting him to be like a mage, I just didn't do my homework.

Thiefs are always the best for stealing things, their whole proffesion is dedicated to it.

I used Jan (with potion of master thievery) to steal ALL the scrolls from the woman at the back of Ribald's. I wasn't caught at all!!

Edwin and Ysabell (my mage) had a good day that day !!

So much experience, so many spells and I could sell on the ones I didn't need/use for a tidy sum... 20,000GP !!

Some people may see that as cheating but it is was completely within the rules of the game.

I do think it is unrealistic though. The poor woman would have turned around and thourght "Where the hell is ALL my stock!"

I do feel guity for putting her out of business and making her unemployed.

I done the same with my thief, fair tactic and what good thief wouldn't do the same if he thought he could get away with it. I never sold any scrolls back but I did steal at every opportunity just for the sake of thieving, to keep my hand in so to speak.

The life of a Klepto, it's the only way to go.

Bracers of defence AC3 from Ribald will help a lot, but they may be better used on a mage.
