No theif

[GrimReaper]

Ok. I want to solo as a kensai/mage. But how am I supposed to get through all the traps without a theif? And how do I open locked doors and chests? I'm more concerned about the traps, though, because you can bash doors and chests. Also, what is a good level to dual the kensai to a mage? I have an experience cap remover so regaining abilities is not a problem. Anyways, thanks for any help in advance.

Going through the game without a thief works pretty good. The traps that just do damage is no problem, but if they have a more nasty effect like maze (kills you if you're soloing) or level drain etc then you'll have to load and try to avoid the trap. As for locks, many can be forced open (I've discovered that locks that are necessary to open to completey a quest are much easier to pick/force than others). If there's a lock that you absolutely HAVE to open and can't force then "cheat" a litlle and have Jan join you to pick it, then dump him.

BTW, if a lock doesn't open try a couple of more times. It's all based on rolls and if it doesn't work the first time it might work the second time, or the third.

cast Knock on the locks
Summoned stuff might set off traps (dunno though)
