valygar's backstab multiplyer

When Valygar joined my party, he had a backstab multiplyer of 3.
He was level 9 back then
as i rmember correctly his multiplyer should be 2 at that level and change to 3 at level 17 or something (i dont remember the exact level)
no big deal i thought.
But now has valygar levelled up to lev 13 and his backstab multiplyer just vanished!!
its no longer there. Also, when i hide in shadows and attack an enemy from behind he doesnt do any extra damage (using celestial fury, as ever)
also, he suddenly had +4 to hit everything.
i stripped him of all his items and his base Thac0 was 7. (as it should be at lev 13)
due to strength bonus it should be 6.
but it was 2
after resting this was gone, but maybe it has something to do with the backstab multiplyer vanishing??
(btw, im in spellhold now)

thanks for any help

The patch for Stalkers' backstab ability is in 3.4, it's just that you'll have to follow the directions in the ReadMe if it's already happened and the backstab is gone.

You'll need Shadowkeeper, the URL to get it is in the ReadMe too.
