@Crenshinibon: thnx! Seems like some sort of overflow error, then :/

@Ode to a Grasshopper: Should try that when I try out the Kensai/Mage :-)

Didn't know that, seems a bit strange though.. I don't edit the values, why would the game reset it itself?

Your sure? Because I mostly get detected whenever I hide in shadows, even with stats close to 240 or so, guess I'll have to try it with that cloak then :-)

The quarterstaff thief

Hello everyone,

As I was replaying BG2 again, I noticed how rediculous Staff of the Magi is. Invisibility(although, somewhat bugged) and my personal favorite, dispel on hit.

It honestly makes for a good melee weapon, if only the damage output wouldn't be so low. So I wonder how it'll fare if you ...

i useally use this party;

-Fighter ( can work as the tank, with good equipment. since I gave him a Katana , Celestial Fury- he stuns just about everyone, Firkraag as well. )
-Mage ( speaks for itself- since I tend to use a lot of spells this works out better for me then the Sorcerer )

some might laugh this one off-but i checked the spells Irenicus always casts- Chromatic Orb! After lvl 12 ( IF I'm right ) the spell kills the opponent if no save is made. ( I use it all the time, and it works )
