As discussed here:

Avenger_teambg and I agree that gibber2.cre should have s1-2.itm as a weapon, or (which seems to have been intended perhaps) gibber2.cre spawns in ar2700 and ar2800 should be changed to gibber02.cre instead.

    Have these creaturesn really never been able to attack? o.O

    @Tanthalas - nope. I always wondered why they were so wimpy. They're gibberlings obviously, so you can waste them quickly anyway, but they've got no weapon whatsoever. At least normal gibberlings have that s1-2.itm attack. Diseased ones have half the HP but no attack at all.

    That's pretty funny. They'll have some bite in the next version. Fixed.

    TBH I've always thought this was intentional.

    @CamDawg Don't worry, it's not much bite.

    @CamDawg - speculative perhaps, but consider the actual use of gibber2.cre and the unuse of gibber02.cre, which conforms more closely to BG1 CRE naming conventions.

    Confirmed Fixed in Build 2002

    Both gibber2 and gibber02 are now using s1-2.itm as a weapon.

    @Tanthalas - I take it that means build 2002 is actually available now? Last post I saw said it was on its way...

    @Miloch

    Yeah, that topic actually meant that it was available for download.
