Problem with Short Sword of Backstabbing from 2.30

18 April 2003 - 06:49 PM

The Short Sword of Backstabbing from 2.30 confers its extra +2 bonus for thieves to both weapons if dual-wielding. My swashbuckler went from 9 THAC0 primary (Sword of Flame +1)/10 THAC0 secondary (Arbane +2) to 7 THAC0 primary (Sword of Flame +1)/7 THAC0 secondary (Short Sword of Backstabbing +3).

Of course, if this is intentional, I'm not complaining--but I doubt it's intentional. :)

I just wanted to see if it would grant the swashie a backstab bonus. Fortunately I saved right before, he's gonna get the guild, so I won't be abusing this short sword. :)

Once you work the kinks out, I can't see any assassin going for the guild over this sword. :)

Weimer's site 404ing

(Edit: things seem to be working once more... whew!)

http://www.cs.berkel...u/~weimer/bgate is currently pulling up a 404 page, as is http://www.cs.berkeley.edu/~weimer/ and any links under that toplevel location.

Does anyone have any idea what may be going on? A couple other user pages on the same server seem to be coming up fine so it's not apparently a server-wide issue.

I was able to download the most recent Item Upgrade and Tactics mods from the site earlier today, and was going back to get the latest Ease-of-Use for IWD2 when I discovered it was 404ing.

Bucklers

Can you make one "normal" SoA Buckler +1 available in the, er, "buckler shop"? :)

The Buckler +1 is used in Weimer's Item Upgrade mod to make the Holy Buckler of Amaunuator or some such, and your Buckler +1 does not work in the recipe.  Just a minor niggle...
