Actually, I think the conflict between SC and Amn would come down to the match between Noober and Neeber. No one else would be able to put even word between them. Man, I would like to see that conversation!

Interesting!
But I prefer to remove this ability from the thief and keep the ability for the Bard(Bards can Use any Item-restricted by your new rules).
And remove the Spike/Time/Explode traps of the bards and only the thief keep setting traps.</STRONG ...

I agree. Besides, if you read carefully, before the patch they say it is a list of major fixes, so there are probably a lot of fixes that Bioware fixed but thought they are not worth of mention. I understand, the major ...

Yes, but for dualled thieves it becomes too powerfull. Wizards Slayers, for example, can start use any Magic item with a ...

I agree that in its present form Use any Item is overkill. I would like that Bioware would modify this ability: it would be much more balanced and interesting, that thief could pick this ability not once, but many times at every level up, however every time thief could learn the use of only one item ...

I still think the conflict between SC and Amn would become Mage wars. And I am sure, there would be so many mages in Faerun who would oppose the possibility of yet another piece of land to be under Cowled Wizards, that the CowWiz phrase: "Our numbers are many, you will be overwhelmed!", would stop ...

I would vote for Sword Coast over Amn. Amnish regulation over Magic forced many wizards to leave. Remember, in BG2 manual Elminster comment? " Even I had to be careful in these lands?", or something. So I would think there are more better Mages you could find in the Sword Coast, and those who do not ...

Well, what about "The beauty and the beast"?

Granted, the beast first turned into humanoid form, but only after the girl ...

Int also affects the ...

It was not a suggestion, it was an observation after no posts for almost 24 hours.

Someone mentioned that the AD&D 2nd edition rules give specialist mages bonuses when using spells from their school, but does anyone know if this is implemented in BGII?
I don't recall it being mentioned in the ...

<STRONG>Yes the thief can cast spells from scrolls with use any item ability. Try casting Mislead (via scroll) then backstabbing infinite times.... </STRONG>

Cool!!!

Never played thieves yet, I guess will give a try.

Anyone?

Is it time to dissolve the Guild?

Remember BG1, Beregost:

Do you stop beating him after he lose him concious? Do not. Do you have any weapon?

Yeah, and lose point on Wisdom. It is not an increase, rather trade-off.

<STRONG>As far as I know, the weapon styles only affect melee weapons... it does nothing to range weapons like bows or slings.</STRONG>

You are absolutly correct. I just checked, ALL weapon styles are for MELEE ONLY.

Does the Thief who will pick Use Any Item ability is able to cast spells from any scrolls?

What do you mean their stats increase?

Watching how Irenicus battles those Wizards at the Wakeen promenade, looks like he uses this aura cleaning indeed.
