Drizzt's weapons dont seem to work

When i equip Drizzt's weapons the bones don’t seem to stack on my THACO why is this.

What do you mean by stack? You got seperate Thac0s for each hand. They work fine for me, one for Rasaad, the other one for Safana.

Imoen has a base THACO of 17 and is proficient with short swords and scimitars i equip her +1 short sword and the THACO drops to 16, this is what I expect to happen. I equip Kingsdeath +3 scimitar and the THACO stays at 17 it should drop to 14. The same thing happens with Twinkle.

Weird, are you using current build of the game?

Yep nothing added or taken out. I don’t know how to use all that mod stuff any way I am playing on android.

I would recommend opening a Redmine Ticket about this interaction.

Do you know whether it is just a screen bug or does this actually impact the Thac0 of you hitting a target as well?

Not sure yet, what is a Redmine Ticket.

Thanks @DevardKrown.

Sorry that I wasn't able to reply sooner and apologies for the presumptuous post about Redmine.

Hopefully we can all get to the bottom of this issue and resolve it.

it sounds like she is getting a +3 penalty to that weapon, which is what thieves get if they are not proficient with weapons, are you 100% sure you are proficient with scimitars?

Apologies went off to the Tavern for some strong Dwarven ale. I am 1000% sure I am proficient with scimitars, Imoen just trained in them to use that specific weapon. I will try the Redmine thing..

Good strong Dwarven ale always seems to put things in perspective. When I checked my weapon proficiencies I had point the point in to katana not scimitar, stupid boy pike. Lucky I had a save just before I done this so Imoen is now running around with a +3 scimitar. Apologies for wasting every ones time, I will make sure I drink plenty of Dwarven ale before posting any comments.

I was going to say that there's no way his scimitars are bugged as I've been using them for the last 3 days lol.

Yeah, Katanas are a separate proficiency from Scimitar/Wakizashi/Ninja-To. Those three are all grouped as one. Glad you managed to fix it. ^_^

I am playing on my phone so just hit the wrong button I still think it might have been down to lack of ale.

If the answer is not a good strong dwarven ale, then you are asking the wrong question.

Grum

An insightful post if I ever did read one. Might I ask which kind of dwarven ale you are using?

Brogdin's Marching Brew is always great for a good pick me up. It's used with a special cave fungi that makes it uncomfortable to sit down. Great for forced marches!

Clan Culd'un has a fairly unique brew that it made with werewolf blood. Usually sold to dwarves who are balding. Though I must warn you, some unscrupulous dwarves drink it in an attempt to lengthen their beard so they can seem older and wiser than they truly are.

Neverfull is an ironic name for a rare ale. It is brewed in the skull of a decapitated troll. Much care is needed to make sure that the troll doesn't regenerate before the brew is ready. But if you do it right you can end up with a mug of ale that refills itself. I have heard of one tavern where there had a mug of it. They have a challenge to finish every last drop. Several elves have died of alcohol poisoning in the attempt. Though after one particularly bad tavern brawl it went missing. There is a several thousand gold piece reward for its return still active.

This brew got the name because to keep it from overflowing you need to keep drinking from it. It's hard to find it these days. Some say it is because brewmasters chased the dwarf who invented it out of his hold because of the fear that it would destroy their business. Some say he is still out there with a band of adventurers, hunting down trolls and trying to recreate his greatest invention.

And of course there is my favorite, "beardling's best." Why you say? Because it is made by dwarven apprentices who are still learning the fine art of brewing. It's sold for a pittance because it hasn't been perfected yet. Still better than manling swill, and you can make quite a good profit reselling it to foolish human tavern owners. Uhm...not that I would know anything about that, of course.
