High level thieves...

[Prophet]

...are they worth it? In BG and IWD I've always had a single class thief and it's only been at the end of the games when their skill levels have been approaching 100. In BGII my thief is Yoshimo and having just levelled him up I've realised that all of the thief skills that I use are all pretty much at 100% So I'm thinking about dual classing him.

I was just wondering if later on in the game I'm gonna come across any tough locks and traps that are going to make me wish I'd increased my thief skills over 100% :{

hmmm i can't really comment without giving a major spoiler away about yoshimo though i would'nt bother dual classing him you will see why.

Tsk... you've been cheating, haven't you, Sicko? :)

Anyway, I prefer single-classed characters. It's probably safe to assume there are a few nasty traps and locks out there, and if your stealth skills are over 100% you have a better chance of hiding in brightly lit conditions.

Thanks for the advice, looks like Yoshimo wont be going straight just yet :roll: On the plus side I'm not far away from x5 backstab damage :)

So far I've not been setting snares, but as the rest of you seem to be using them alot, maybe it's time to put a few skill points that way as well.
