Has anyone ever noticed if you give a thief 8 Dex (which is min.). in bg1 that his thieving abilities are the same as a thief with either 13,14, or 15 dex. but higher than a thief with either 9,10,11, or 12

is this a bug in bg or some odd D&D rule. probably a bug, but has anyone seen this?

Before anyone wonders...yes it is a legal version 5 disk +TotSC, w/the patch, and no mods

I am guessing the error comes from an incomplete .2da file that gives bonuses/penalties to thieving skills to characters based on their DEX. Since the game doesn't allow you to become a thief unless you have 9 or more points in DEX, Bioware decided to ignore everything below 9 DEX.

That is only my guess.
