Educator would be my first choice if my comp didn't go so slow when dealing with the animations of 8 other characters on screen, followed by beat with the ugly stick(beauty doesn't do that much and it can be regained in lots of ways when u need to talk to someone you u need to be beautifull for ...

Mind marvel malfunction.

As I was playing today I noticed any time I would try to use mind marvel it would no longer effect one of my particular characters. It can't have been because he was allready under the effects of it because I'd wait a few days and then try again and still nothing, his stats weren't maxed either, any ...

Random arcanum questions.

Hmm, then I will give it another try also using 'heal'. Perhaps Ill also forget my healer woman and do it myself - she tends to use a whole pot even if only 2 hp are missing.

Thanks for all the answers.

Instead of not using Jayna because of her unjudcial use of salves you might consider not ...

It also makes no difference between "more" and "less" tech or magic items. Either they are, or they aren't.
Not according to any of the tests I've conducted.

@ satanicusmaximu

That's fine if you have the co-ordinates to the pass (or know roughly where it is and are prepared to spend hours searching for it). Be careful doing that though, it is possible to screw up the game visiting areas to early, I know, I've found out the hard way.

As to the Medical ...

Hmm, regarding my original problem: would the 'heal' skill be able to help me? never tried it and dont know how it works.

Gorgoth pass is down and to the left of shrouded hills, I would not reccomend looking for it in the game if you dont know ...

Except they are all just as much Tech Items. Purely on a fluff basis , it wouldn't make sense for a techitem to give better bonuses to a tech character, as opposed to a neutral character. Steel is steel, it's just there to stop a blow.
The Dark Helmet DOES give varying amounts of AC & Res. Whenever ...

The problem with the medical arachnid idea is that it takes a long time to acquire it. The healing jacket would help, and unlike the Medical Arachnid the schematic isn't broken, and can be gained earlier.

Just stock up on ingredients, remember, if you advance time by 24 hours all the shopkeepers ...

The medical arachnid can heal you and fight for you aswell, it would go great with a repair master, it would heal you while you would repair it, the only thing with it is it's slow outside of combat.

It makes sense that both Machined plate and Electro armour are affected by aptitude whereas elite plate is not, Elite plate would be no different in the weilding to any other type of non tech armour.

That's because the Dark Helm has varying degrees of Resistance and AC based on aptitude, since it's a magic item. That probably messed things up. I can only say that my 100% tech character had the listed amount of AC & Res, while my 100% magic character got them as well, and a crit failure to boot ...

I think you're mixing the different sizes of platemails up. Those offer different AC & Res dependant on size. Really? This is how I tested it. I got a character to level 30 without expending any character points and saved the game so I could reload it repeatedly and test out all the different ...

I'm inclined to think that critical failure tends to affect melee combat and certain things like lockpicking. It's already frustrating without a penalty to have weapons fall out of hands or even more stupidly scarring oneself with a penalty things could be right appalling.

Then again, I've only ...

I went out of my way to cheack it. What I'm saying is true, unless there's an inventory screen display error.
