If your dualing from a fighter there's a strength requirement that needs to be met as well, what is the strength of your character?

Dude, if you're gonna have a F/T make him/her and multi Elf I think they're so much better. And a F/T with 9 Str is blasphemous.

Ok, so i redid mine, and its a 15 strengh requirement, but then i dualed and my thief doesent get to even specialize in combat, i want a thief that can fight, and the game doesent seem to like that, i also think im gonna do a kensia/thief sounds better, is there any tips about getting higher weapon proficincies or a way to pick a kit like swashbuckler?? :)

there is no "legal" way to pick a kit for the class you are dualling INTO, inly the one you are dualling FROM. however, you get all the specialisations of your fighter/kensai after the thief levels are above the kensai.

once u regain ur fighter abilities, this includes the ability of 5+ in any weapon, u can distribute ur proficiencies as u like. look at ano, its basically the same.
in some other post i read it might b a good idea not to lvlup the thief when u would waste prof points, but wait til u regain the fighter abilities and do all the lvlups at one time then. sounds like a good idea, but u might b low-lvl for quite some time then.
