I dual wielded Stupefier and Ashideena from level 1 on a Ranger/Cleric 2 dual wield, 2 hammer, 2 mace.
By about the time I got to Cloakwood I quit, because I felt dirty for several reasons.
I am doing the exact same weapon build, but a multiclass cleric/ranger rather than a dual. There was a fight (I believe southeast corner of Gullykin?) where bandits/assassins/mercenaries feared/confused me and my brother's entire party but me and Imoen. Imoen kept running away from a rampaging Ajantis, but my cleric/ranger took on the whole group by himself with stupifier and ashideena. Such a brutal combination.
If you want to check my Override folder I can give you my TeamViewer ID without problems.
Proves nothing; you could have spawned Xan in Candlekeep using CLUAConsole, swapped him for the PC, and edited him however you liked through ShadowKeeper.
Just say how you did it instead of trying to be 'clever'. As I told you, a character created as a straight-up copy of Xan couldn't wield that sword (though a Xan altered through ShadowKeeper to be a Fighter/Thief, with 3 Int, Wis, and Cha, had no problems whatsoever).
I recall some thread a really long time ago, I want to say July, that had this on a list of one of the things that would be nice to be externalized so that modders could make equipment like that.
I'm assuming that specific tool for modders hasn't been implemented yet, so it would still be internalized.
That is all off the top of my head. I can look for the thread I'm referring to later tonight.
This news just in!! : @SpaceInvader acts like a 10-year-old and tells everyone "they're mad" and "stop calling me a liar" wah wah wah wah
Seriously, when you act like that to amuse yourself, that's fine; but be aware that acting like that to amuse yourself AND expecting to not be called a liar do NOT mix. That comes as part of the package, bud.
Edit: I forgot to mention, but I believe the Moonblade requires you to have either Charisma equal to or greater than what Xan has, no matter what UAI says. So I think it needs 16+?
Edit Part Two - The Editing: Added spoiler tags. I hope.
@Mykra Thank you, just used Shadowkeeper for the first time a few days ago messing around with weapon proficiencies in BG2, so I was unaware of this. Also, doesn't it seem weird that Xan has a high Charisma?
@Quartz Unsure if this is you or a meme that you just happened to present. Either way, thank you for going to the effort of counter-trolling. Even though it doesn't get past his regeneration (only admins can do that, and power outs), it is certainly worth the effort.

16 Charisma is the minimum requirement for being an Enchanter.

Hahaha, well said! And yes, that is me. =P I didn't make that picture for this thread at all, but now it has come in handy!

Quartz nailed it on the head. I remembered it needed a high charisma, I just couldn't remember why. Silly mage kit.
This is the best way to do it, so I don't really care how he did it.
The problem with your way is that many of us play multiplayer with other guys. I cannot ask to my group to download this file so I can cheat in a copy of that damn sword or dagger or whatever it is.
I've no idea of the arrangements made between you and the other players, nor why you want to cheat and use Xan's sword in the first place, but it isn't unheard of people in multiplayer putting the same files in override.

Did this on a F/T multi.
Main handed the Dagger of Venom for back stabs.

That is internalized I believe.

I didn't even care anymore about this thread, but thanks for giving me this slice of drama! xD
If I should count the things in this game that some ppl find "impossible" and that others are able to easily accomplish...
Anyway, I wish you a nice day and a good game!
I'm outta here.
EDIT: Just to let you know, I'll be 10 tomorrow.
Spiders bane with cavalier resistances/imm unities and stupidifier gets my vote
*Open up Shadowkeeper. Go to Innate Abilities. Assign 'Use Any Item'. Give it a usage.
*Start the game up. The HLA Use Any Item needs to be used once to activate. It's located in your Innate sub-menu:
*Use the ability. You now have the ability to equip any item in the game naturally from that point on. Even Xan's Moonblade.
To get it to work in BG:EE, all you have to do is the quick workaround to get Shadowkeeper to read the EE files.

Well at least it proves you are not a robot.
Or you are a very clever one....O.o
Ignore that, I have suspicions that everyone online that I haven't met in person is a robot set up to monitor my activities...
"Use any item"...
Unzip the attached file and put it in override, then just use
CLUAConsole:CreateItem("MOONBL")

Why not?
