Glitches I've noticed

Remove all ads!

If your cleric is ever imprisoned, then you get another holy symbol when you free them.

multiclass thieves can choose assassination more than once as a high end ability, regular thieves can't.

multiclass ranger clerics can't get their third slot in two weapon style or the second slot in two handed style.

 

if you have the latest patches and no 3rd party stuff installed, you should wrap it up and send it to BI as a bug report.

if you're lucky, we might just get some fixes for that

But if you do use any 3rd party utils, that might very well be the reason

I use shadowkeeper. Its like a drug, I can't stay away.

If I use shadow keeper in SOA and I stop using it when I get to TOB, will I be Okay or do I need to reinstall and delete my saved games?

 

I can't tell whether or not you will be ok, but I assume the glitches will still be there. You could start with reinstalling, but if it doesn't work, then you might should delete your saves.

But if it doesn't bother you, just play with the glitches. Sounds somewhat easier to overcome than replaying the whole thing

 

well third party stuff is unrealiable to say the least. I once added an extra kit the wushi ninja thief but his class abilities were no different than the thief (in other words didn't work) and any other thief classes lost proficiencies in many weapons such as katana scimitar etc. did a reinstall *sigh*

on the other hand there are some usefull stuff like the boots of speed on baldurdash. They do what the boots of speed were intented to do (just increase the movement rate) instead of some weird version of the haste spell. The character animations arent hasted at all times which is a relief and the offhand when dualwielding swings (it doesn't with normal boots of speed) fighter's do not get an extra attack etc. (these aren't fixed in the tob patch)

are you sure normal thieves can't get assasination more than once ?

 

Now that you express some doubt regarding the thief's ability to pick assassination more than once, I am wondering if SK is keeping me from allowing the thief from choosing assassination more than once and keeping my fighters from picking smite more than once.

 

It's not SK doing it - I've never used SK, and my thief could only choose assassination once, and my fighters could only choose smite once. I'm pretty convinced that the fact that multiclasses can choose them is a bug (why in the world would a multiclass be able to assassinate 2x as often as a pure thief?). It definately exists though - Jan can pick assassination twice. I think it's a fair guess to say that the first time he picks it is when he levels up as a thief, and the second is when he levels up as a mage. I expected high level abilites to be handled independently (i.e. when you lvl up as a thief, you can pick a thief skill, and when you level as a mage, you pick a mage skill, etc), but this isn't how it's done - you get to pick from the combined pool (or some strange variation on it) every time you level in either.
