Throwing Daggers (spoilers!) and.. HI!

Dave_the_quack · 08-28-2004, 09:33 AM

Hey hey guys and gals!

Just wanna say first up that I've been reading this forum for years, and thought it was time to sign up. Thanks for all the help! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Now just some info on me [img]smile.gif[/img] Im a chronic restarter, a SERIOUS chronic restarter. I've owned this game for god knows how long (over 2 years) and go through various stints of playing and non playing. Im proud to say, the last game I played was a Pit fighter (TDD) dualled to a theif, and it was the first game I played that I actually continued into Chapter 4. Heh. How bad is that. I ended up finishing last night, so I've decided to play with two characters this time, a sorc and a knife bearer.

Now that that's outta the way, to the point!

I wanna know where you can get a throwing dagger that returns to you REALLY early in the game. Like somewhere I can head out almost straight away after Irenicus' chateau. I dont mind if its not enchanted... I'm just not fussed on continually carrying around throwing daggers.

SPOIL ME BABY!

There is a party within one of the inns in the bridge district, one of them carries the boomerang dagger.

You can either just kill them right there or start a quest (that ultimately leads to you killing them IIRC) via a limited wish.

Welcome BTW

The quest does not ultimately lead to killing them. I don't even know if a party in Chapter Two would be able to do such a thing... and this all reeks of powergaming anyway, in my opinion.
Pickpocket it instead... if you must. Or just bite the bullet and wait a while.

limited wish quest is do-able in chapter 2 with Dave's set up:

sell everything - buy limited wish scroll - cast from scroll etc . . .

i had a fun solo with a dagger wielding kensai once (i 'hired' aerie to read the scroll) but i dualled him to thief at 13 and got bored in spellhold once UAI kicked in

welcome Dave, by the way [img]smile.gif[/img]

Illumina Drathiran'ar · 08-28-2004, 01:39 PM

It's kind of a waste to read from a Limited Wish scroll when you could just wait... But fine, let's say you did that. Then there are several places to go that might be difficult, and you also need to *find* the areas in question... starting quests... I don't know, it just gives me a squick.

If you have throne of bhaal installed you could dart across to Watcher's Keep to grab a rather nice throwing dagger on the first level...

Dave_the_quack · 08-28-2004, 06:12 PM

Heya,

Thanks for all the help folks!

Illumina, its not really a powergaming thing, its just ... well sort of an "ease of use" thing. If there is a returnable throwing dagger early on to be had, i'd much rather pursue that than wasting money on throwing daggers

That being said, you probably weren't even talking to me, heh.

HOW COME NOONE HAS DONE THE SMILIE WELCOME FOR ME? I sort of feel left out! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Thanks for all the help everyone [img]smile.gif[/img] Ive decided to pickpocket the guy in bridge district... then head to watchers keep. Cant wait to get my hands on firetooth though... *laughs evilly*

Dart, not Dagger.

Dave_the_quack · 08-28-2004, 10:29 PM

Damn. Is there anywhere else where I can grab a good throwing dagger apart from underdark?

(not including delosar's inn)
