Solo Cleric - any chances to get the strength tome?

rion26

I just noticed clerics can´t use strength potions. No knock spell, no lockpicking ... any ideas or do I have to pass it?

booinyoureyes

Any character can use any tome
... nvm I misunderstood the question. Can't you break it open?

rion26

true, the problem is actually the chest the tome is locked into, the one in candlekeep catacombs.

I see no way to bash it, draw upon holy might gives me + 2 str. atm, but I think you need at least 23 to break it.

Theres one potion that can help you but you probably aren't in a position to get it anymore. Its the Violet Potion from one of the merchants in the carnival. There is only one in the game.

POTN16 is its item code if you need to use the console.
