Post Soloing an expirienced Char ??

I Intend to Play SoA and maybe ToB ( wich i have installed too ) with an expierienced Solo char on core setting.
His lvl at the beginning : 10 assasin, 11 fighter dualed.
And hes evil =)
I made him his own equipment wich he will keep all thru the game, even if he finds better stuff.
2 +3 katanas, one gives 1 to AC
Spiderarmor +3 an elvenchainmail with spider ornaments, wich allows him to summon a swordspider once per day and grands him immunity to poison.
A drow cloak, made for surfaceops, gives +40 hide in shadows and +40 move silently, and its entchandet wit non-detection (im not sure if thats to powerfull )
No rings no helmets no necklaces.

So my question is, did anyone here doing something like that and has some expirience about it.
Would the game be to easy or to hard ?
Is the Equipment to powerfull ?
Should i set the difficulty higher ?

It's your game. If you enjoy playing with that equipment, then go ahead, enjoy yourself

Personally, I'd have made the spider armour grant free action

I started a solo adventure a while back with my stalker, Since I am relatively inept computer stuff, I never knew how to work it all out so he had his own stuff, so I started a new game and made him start from stratch as an 18th lvl stalker. Well, the game is insanely easy on anything but hardcore. I had him dual wielding a katana and longsword +1 in the dungeon, picked up studded leather +2 from the slums and eventually celestial fury. But I Digress, I suggest you put the settings as hard as they can go, especially since you start of with that nifty gear.

I try to play BGII and Tob with experienced solo character in insane dif. level.
The beginin of the game was so easy that I lost my motivation.
But maybe you disagree, is nice to try. But the problem is that the beginin is not projected for hight level character and fast level pass of a solo game make it even more easy and boring. In other side my character was a arcane spellcaster, maybe the fact that you cannot use spells early on make the things more intersting.

BTW, You make very intersting ( and creative) items for your character, I think the cloak a little powerfull, but the fact that you will not use rings/ amulets/ helmet bring balance back.
