Stolen Halberd+2 (Spoilers)

Post by glenfar »

On the first level of Watcher's Keep, you pick up a Halberd+2. It doesn't seem like anything special, but most merchants refuse to buy it off you - just say they don't fence stolen goods ...

Now I decided to try the fence down in the temple sewers, and sure enough he bought it (for about 1000GP).

So is that all there is to it? Or is there something more I can do with this Halberd? It just seems too simple - why bother putting it in the game just for that? I was kind of expecting it to trigger a side quest or something ...

It's just a bug, I supppose someone accidently set the "stolen" flag on that item during development and nobody noticed that.
There are three kinds of people that no one understands: geniuses, madmen and guys that mumble.

OK, thanks ... bit of a letdown, but at least I know I'm not missing something!

I've never tried stealing anything myself (I'm playing a 'Good' party), so I've never gotten that message 'naturally'.

I think that the Baldurdash Patch fixes that bug. (It just replaces the "stolen" halberd with one that doesn't have the stolen flag.)
