    [​IMG] The henchman interface is a little annoying...I can't figure out how to get them to open chests and stuff for me! There's no way to ask them to do it....I have open lock skill, but it's feeble - Since I'm a paladin!!

    After I fail, my henchman says..."Let me try..." I'm thinking to myself: "No shit - you're the thief, that's why I brought ya!!!

    Any suggestions for this? Am I missing something? I couldn't find anything in the manual!

    Is it possible to ask them to do it? I've heard there are several simple commands you can give to henchmen...

    In Arcanum, the follower would step in if you attempted to do something they were more skilled in.

    Ah, yes according to the bottom of page 111 of the manual I see online, it seems to indicate you can give them orders by talking to them.

    [​IMG] On an off-topic note, I hate (for the most part) Arcanum's henchman interface. When I play NWN in three days...OH YEAH!

    hehe... great Bel, enjoy the game... I have to live with WC3 for one week....

    I don't like the fact that you can't give your henchman other equipment etc... :(

    [​IMG] Bwahahaha! Even here in Malaysia, some stores have already imported the game. Managed to get myself one. Pricey, without a doubt.

    Anyway, Sir Bel, how did you manage to 'tell' your henchmen to open chests for you? I can't figure it out :(

    BTW, "Let me try.."? Having a stroll with Sharwyn are we? ;):love:

    [​IMG] Nah - I'm using Tomi Undergallows. As far as tell them to open locks...I try it myself once, then he jumps in! If you "turn on" search, he will try to open locks and disarm traps.

    Sharwyn is a cutie...I don;t think you can give Henchmen better equipment.
