Ah, no difference, no difference... I was just providing an alternative. Its just that trademeet quests probably take less time to finish, thats all. Besides, for a character who uses clubs, its the only place to obtain good clubs.
Not really true; at the start of the game, the trademeet club is the most effective weapon for Jaheira, given her proficiencies. You are making long-term judgements on answers to Chapter 2 issues. I wish that I had known about trademeet right away - after Nalia's Keep, it's the best way to open up a number of nice weapons.
I was assuming that she would use Belm in her offhand - but you are right. I had forgotten that she doesn't start out with dual-wielding proficiencies; I didn't find out about Trademeet until fairly late in the game.
