What's so great about Katanas?

Just a thought, but why do so many people glorify these rare weapons?

Seems to me that the scimitar would be a worthier investment to put your proficiency slots in.

The 1d10 is better than the 1d8 of the scimitar but there are only two katanas worth noting.

I'm losing all hope here...

Ok here's my problem:

About a week ago I noticed that when I started BG up and tryied to load a game it would display the usual messages like:

Loading Game...
Loading Area...

Then the game would come up and freeze.
Then the loading screen would pop up again!

If you go get Firetooth early, does that count as visiting the first level of the Keep?

If so then there will only be a few statues due to low levels and you miss out on Foebane +3. :(

That would be a damn shame since that weapon kicks butt later on in the game. I guess it balances out but if you ...

The Uber Project:

-Kensai Thief dualed @ lvl 15
-Fighter Cleric dualed @ 12 ( I think...)
-Kensai Mage dualed @ lvl 8 (still gets to lvl 40 so its like having a full mage who can use katanas)
-Monk (anti magic)
-Archer
-Bard (I have a blade but a skald would work wonders as well)

Putting him out of his misery

I love Cespanar and all (though I sometimes use him for weapons testing) and I thought it was really cool that you could vorpal hit him again and again and not have him die.

He has two special belts or something that keep him alive the way Imoen does at first?

Anyway, then I figured that I could ...

What about the most unlucky character ever created?

The Five (Plus One?)

Anyway, I'm working on something right now that I call the Uber Project. Basically it entails creating my version of the perfect party. Right now it consists of:

Kensai/Thief dualed @ Lvl.15
Fighter/Cleric dualed @ Lvl.12
Kensai/Mage dualed @ Lvl.8
Monk
Archer
Blade

Its going pretty well though I ...

Am I unlucky or something?

I was just wondering...

I was playing as an evil half-orc fighter and was once struck by lightning in the middle of the day.

No bad guys or anything.

It just happened, could have been cuz it was raining but seriously, its never happened to me before or since.

Since when can I add thieving points to set traps?

I only get four, they are:

Pick Pockets:
Open Locks:
Find Traps:
Move Silently:


Otherwise I'd put them all into traps and hide in shadows since I can't find what move silently does anyway...

Maybe its cuz I'm dual classed?

WTF is with traps??

Arg.

I keep reading post about people who set traps up everywhere and have enemies killed and whatnot.

Is there something wrong with my kensai/thief or is he just stupid?

His trap setting ability is at 15% and even with the mercykiller ring on he hardly ever get a trap to be set.
