I've prepared everything and I have nearly 2 hours before the family shows up, so...

Sneak might help you explore the map and it can get you a lot of the XP an enemy is worth without needing to attack them.

17 from INT, plus 2 from Educated Perk. Then 1 from armour. And as soon as I get an Amulet of Voodo (if I do), I will get one more while wearing them, making 21. THEN I will get +1 INT from Scholar of the Crescent, which will add another point, so I anticipate finishing up with 22 skill points per level. Which ain't bad.

Just checked. The only limit is 5 END, lvl2 or less. So I don't know why it didn't show up. Must be just a minor abberation of the programme, I suppose. Meh.

True. I only bother if a char is hard pressed, losing health points rapidly and I don't have mana/healing potions

Hopefully I'll find one of those belts again in the not too distant future. Those helped a lot in my last run through.

No, it's usually just saleable junk in there. Apart from the odd potion.

Men always notice things like that. You have better spatial awareness then women, too. Usually. My middle grandson has amazing spatial awareness. Amazing to me, anyway.

Everywhere else, I agree. But I go in there at level 2 and there's no way I could fight those nasties down there!

Yeah, I've had dealings with it. If you free it by clicking on the crosses next to it, it gives you a free perk before vanishing (good a good perk though it apparently makes people react more negatively to you).
Also, you can attack, though it regenerates health too quickly to do lasting damage (even if you hit every time), though the result is quite amusing and it may even give you a reward if you're very persistant.

Really? Well... I guess I'll have to make another visit...

Meh. I don't like 'em. Have you seen the racks and other torture stuff down there? Nasty.

Yeah. That's who I meant. Dunno why I was relating it to Wielders.

True. But Saladin gives +1 INT and +10 Speech if you go for the Scholar option (I forget what you get if you go for the Fighter option), and Beggars give +1 LUCK, so well worth joining!

Let me know who you decide to join.

I have only 1 book left to get for Weng Choi, then I can get Weng Choi's Shaolin Secret, which is VERY good for Unarmed fighters.
