Problem with BB Armour

i killed those boring beetles and brought back 3 of their hides to oswald so he can make all 3 tipes of armour he knew how to make ... i already got the light one and when i come back for the other 2 i can only get 1 ... either the heavy or the medium and after that the dialog option dissapears .... am doing something wrong or are there only 2 armours to be had from oswald ... also the yeti pelt where 6 and oswald knew to make only 5 objects so 1 yeti pelt i had to sell ... any advice here would be apreciated ...

second time through the game ... the first time i quit in the goblin warrens as i liked BG I & II more because of their plot and story ... IWD I and II are oriented more for combat and it takes a bit of the fun out for me ...

You'll find better armor during the game, so don't bother too much about this. Only the heaviest armor is worth it for a while.

Hi Twista,

kmonster is definitely right about finding better armor. At this stage of the game the beetle armor can still be quite useful though. One good thing about the armor Oswald makes (even in the later chapters) is that it is extremely light weight and for a cleric that might not have a very high strength it helps them have some weight carrying capacity available.
Oswald can indeed make more than one copy of any item he offers you. BUT, he can only make "one at a time." So he has to completely finish one copy, of whatever he is making, before he will offer to make another.
In my first playthrough I had 3 characters that had Oswald's full plate, the heaviest, (which is my preference of the three styles). Two of them later changed to new armor I found, but my cleric who only had a strength of 12 used his almost until the game's finish. Oswald can also make items from winter wolf pelts as well as the yeti pelts.
Hope you are having fun.
