duel wield question

Gabrielles blades · 01-18-2003, 11:30 AM

I generaly play a fem rogue, but ive noticed in quite a few mods there may be romance for the male
so i made a monk...
anyhow, i managed to get the duel wield feat, but when i look at the statistics for offhand it says not applicable? does this mean to use this feat i need to use a weapon rather than unarmed?

Yup. Monks don't dual wield their barehands. You could dual wield kamas if you really want to dual wield.

boo
hrm well i remade as a cleric instead since i didnt like the feel of the gnomish monk.

and im having a wee bit of a problem with spell selection for her
It says that you can "sacrifice" an equivalent level spell so that you can use a heal instead, but apparently my empowered quickened etc type spells dont count as the level that they are adjusted to.
for ex, for 7th level spells i have quickened call lightning, and in that spell level i also have greater restoration, my way of thinking is that i should be able to sacrifice the quickened call lightnings for the restoration since they are now memorized on the same level even though it is actualy a lower level spell /sigh, doesnt work like that, quite a nuisance.

Also...how do i break open chests/doors as a monk or a cleric? my melee damage output is really quite pathetic, and i cant seem to get my henchman to assist me in bashing (the chat option he has is for if i fail lockpicking not to help bashing) Ive tried everything from chain lightning to energy bursts and nothing seems to bash objects to bits except a melee weapon; the monks problem was his fists didnt hurt the doors and stuff hard enough either so same problem as the cleric. grrr i miss my rogue(

oh...and another thing!
just how the heck do casters manage to cast in combat? i have 29 skill in concentration and that feat to reduce battle combat thing...but not once in like 100 battles have i *ever* managed to get a spell off if i was under attack.
