Being a Drow..

Post by Isomniac »

Good Morning every1 :)
i just wanted to ask that is there ANY mod out there that lets u create character that looks like drow(way he/she moves,skills?,speach,etc..)
i know u can make viconia,but she doesnt look like drow at all..Solaufein looks like the drow im talking about :D
Big tnx to all possible answers!
I was thinking that should i take any other weapons to assassin that he cant use to backstab, or is wep.profs limited to weapons that the one,s he can use is suitable for stabbing aswell?sry for my bad language, but try to understand :(

Ive seen at least 2 mods that add the Drow as a subrace but if u want to look like Sola then just use shadowkeeper ;)

I don't know the two mods Pepsimax is talking about, but with Shadowkeeper, you can customize your character(s) to look like drow and have drow abilities.

As for backstabbing weapons, I know you can't backstab with all the weapons you have a proficiency in, but I couldn't give you a list, I'm not a big fan of backstabbing myself and I rarely (if ever) play as a Rogue :p

A minor clarification..

The weapon itself must be thief usable - a thief with UAI can USE the Staff of the Magi, but can't backstab with it.
I have given up all lesser evils as inadequate to my purpose.

AFAIK, you can only backstab with piercing weapons; that's where the "stab" comes in backstab.

No, Backstabbing does work with all the weapons a thief can use. This includes staffs and clubs.
If nothing we do matters, then all that matters is what we do.

Wowee

:D
i didnt know that u can edit way u look w/SK!!!
a biiig tnx to u ppl for giving me that piece of information!
can u say that should i use single hand style or 2-weapon(bad THACO) the main reason for using single weapon is when i backstab i hit only once with da multiplier so other hit with baad THACO isnt worth it IMO..
how did u ppl get staff of ram with thief? wich lvl u were?

You should use only a One-Handed Weapon, so you can have a great Thaco. For your Backstabs, you can take the (Highlight to see - Spoiler) Short Sword +4, the one given when you defeat Mae'Var
