    I just went to dritz to get his mithrill mail by pickpocketing him. I got 20 health potions, 20 speed potions, 5 cure poison potions and the two scimitars but no mithril. I kept thieving until it said that he had no valid items.

    Was the mithril taken out for ToSC or DSoSC?? Or am i just dumb??

    Hello!

    You have to kill Drizzt to get his Mithril armor. Also, only one of his weapons can be pickpocketed(either one, choice is random everytime you ppocket). If you kill him you get both plus mithril armor :) .

    How to kill him?
    Memorize as many Animate dead spells as you can(they have very long duration), summon them and then attack drizzt so that he turns hostile. Now withdraw all your chars somewhere out of drizzt's line of sight. Skels will attack him, scoring occasional hits on him(when they're criticals). Drizzt will ignore the skels, so he will eventually be killed by them. Of course that can take LOOOONG time so you can go watch TV for some time :) When he is killed you get all his items.

    Hope that helps.

    [​IMG] i managed to pick pocket both swords. He didnt turn hostile so just kept pick pocketing.

    I'm soloing f/t so your methods of killing him don't bode too well. Maybe i can use oil of speed and keep trying to backstab. Although, i did try this but kept missing.

    Wait until you've got a really good THAC0(like 7 or 8), and if the XP cap is removed, wait until you've got a 4x backstab. Walk up, backstab him either with the Long Sword +2 or the Short Sword of Backstabbing. If you can't get him in one hit(92HP), then reload and keep trying until you do. Eventually you'll get a critical hit and get upwards of 100. He'll drop likw nothing :D

    Or you could try a non cheating or cheese tactic and beat him fairly or not at all, but then, people rarely do.

    [​IMG] I tried killing him lastnihgt. Stole his "Twinkle" scimitar (+3+2) and attacked him with it. Left it for about an hour and i had only dealt out about 4 hits totalling about 40hp. I couldnt be bothered after all. Maybe i'll try again when stronger (if he hasn't disappeared by then - i didnt speak to him after killing the gnolls so he just wandered about when i attack him, so hopefully he should be about somewhere).

    I'm soloing a character I downloaded from this site whom we all know and love, Drizzt. I have to say the battle between Drizzt and Drizzt is the gift that keeps on giving.

    I cannot pickpocket Drizzt!
    It always says "Target has no valuable items". Why?

    [​IMG] If you have the patch installed, you can't pickpocket him for the scimitars.

    [​IMG] Oh, yes. TOSC comes with all the fixes in the original patch. And most versions of BG1 you can buy now are already pre-patched, so for some people it's not possible under any circumstances. (Well, short of emptying the Override folder. But that would be a really stupid thing to do.)

    I can only ever get one of his swords. No armour, no multiple items.

    If you have the patch installed, is it still possible to get his items by killing him?

    If so, is it still possible to find him if you have already talked to him and he has left at the end of the conversation?

    Cheers!

    After you talk to him once, he's gone for good.

    Now *that* was a thought question... You could use Google and surf through dozens of pages to find it, or you could check...accidentally... *this* site. :rolleyes:

    You can kill Drizzt fair and square!
    I posted how on another thread in this forum.

    Topic: Yes, it's possible defeat Drizzt without cheating

    This is of coarse a Mage's way by using a spell.
    *grins*

    Here is a copy/paste of my reply:

    ==============================================

    There is more than one way to get Drizzt!

    You need TotSC to get access to the Spell:
    Otiluke's Resilient Sphere

    Cast it on a party member just before Drizzy attacks them and it should last long enough for the other 5 to kill him using ranged weapons and the best ammo (+2 stones/arrows or bolts of bitting or piercing).
    Keep a back up scroll in case you need to cast it again.

    Works for me! :D

    Oh and make sure to cast Bless. Maybe oil of speed too, but I didn't need it.
