Heya,

I remember that somewhere on the readme, both Imoen and Neera got her wisdom pumped up for Wish purposes back in the days.
What about Edwin, Nalia and Jan ? They're no sorcerers indeed, but would it be a problem to have their wisdom gettin into the 16+ too ?

Regardin Nalia's IATweak making her a fighter(9) turned mage, I'm playing her at the moment and she's indeed real efficient. However, her proficiencies are kinda spread around (1 into dagger, 1 into two-handed sword, 3 into longsword IIRC).
Would it be possible to make her focus on a relevant weapon for this given kit of hers ?

Thought of Katana (for Zerth's blade upgrade), simply longsword, or maybe even flails (de'Arnise she is after all, and flail of ages).
Or maybe implement an option to choose her proficiencies into the IATweaks installation ?

I know all this can be personaly fixed through EEKeeper, but I don't like to mess around in IA with that.



IATweaks be great stuff btw ! Thanks bulian !

Well, not a problem technically, just something I haven't seen as a good fit for them. This is all relative, of course, because IA takes many liberties with what's "legal" and what is not.

There are no points in daggers. Those are short/long swords, dual-wielding and staff/2-h sword. Of course, these could be redistributed.

I might consider adding something like that but it feels a pretty involved process to prep a dynamic guided distribution of proficiencies. At this point, it is easier for me to advise you how modify the installer script so that it grants her the proficiencies you want to see her having.

I'm not entirely sure how safe and bug-free EEKeeper is compared to its predecessor but if you want to mess around with the game files I'd recommend using the latest version of Near Infinity instead. And make backups of something that you edit beforehand, of course.
