The uselessness of UAI in IA?, I want my eternal melody goddamit! Options

[Hidd]

I am planning a runthrough with IA v5, but before I do I'd like to be enlightened to some of it's tweak so I don't plan out a lot of characters that later on doesn't work out. For example, I was trying out a F/T/M with UAI just recently, and the first thing that struck me is that most items aren't even importable by SK. Hence I can't really try it out myself. However, some items are, and when I tried equipping the Eternal Melody and Amulet of Hades, those items would instantly find their way back into my inventory. In fact, the only item that actually worked on my planned F/T/M was the girdle of cloud giant.

First of all, I assume this is intended for those items. My question is is that is the deal with every character-specific item in the game. I recently read a thread about soloing the EDE and someone had tried it with a no xp-cap F/T/M (much like the one I had in mind) and claimed to have used the Judgment Day, which reads in it's destription that it should not be usable by that class.

So, I would like to know which of the following items that a F/T/M can assamble and use;

1. Judgement Day
2. Eternal Melody
3. Memory of the Apprenti
4. Improved Boots of The Ranger Lord
5. Grandfather of Assassins +5
6. Nature's Gift/Elven Ancient Expertise/Potion of Superior Mentality
7. The Truth
8. Jansen Adventure Wear

And yes, I am fully aware of the fact that this mod is planned for being played by a full-house party. I am however not in the mood for that right now, although I am sure I will try it out whenever I feel like another serious run. This time around I just want myself (1/2 chars) to be wickedly strong while facing the hardest fights available through modding.

Also, is there any way to override this put-in-backpack-thing? I know it's there for good intentions, but if there was a nice override file which would remove them I would gladly use it.

Thanks in advance,

Hidd

Judgement Day
Eternal Melody
Memory of the Apprenti
Improved Boots of The Ranger Lord
Grandfather of Assassins +5
Nature's Gift/Elven Ancient Expertise/Potion of Superior Mentality
The Truth
Jansen Adventure Wear

Of these, only the Grandfather of Assassins can be wielded by a F/M/T. Drinking the potions will lead to certain adverse consequences if you are just using UAI to do so (not of the correct class). The rest cannot be wielded in IA v5, but I think they could in IA v4.2. In fact, you would not be able to even get the components for Judgment Day, and would be highly unlikely to forge the Cloak of Apprenti in IA v5 with your current F/M/T protagonist.
