    Right, I have a drow rogue, I dual-class him to a wizard, and his avatar changes to a wizard. I decide I like the rogue avatar more, and use dale keeper to do the change. Problem solved, till the next level up when I take another wizard level and poof! back to the wizard avatar. So is there anyway to make the change permanent? Thanks in advance

    (anyway, does sneak attack work with ranged weapons? I'm thinking of making a rogue10/wizard20)

    Firstly, Sneak Attacks won't work with ranged weapons. This is likely a carry-over from the way IE implements Backstabs in earlier versions, so can't be changed.

    As for the avatar issue... This annoys me to. The way IWD calculates which avatar to use is more complicated than in previous IE games, but I'd rather it had kept it simple & customisable. :bad:

    Maybe if someone implemented a version of the BG2 avatar morphing script for IWD2, it would at least save everyone the hassle of having to exit to GateKeeper every time they levelled up. Anyone game? :bigeyes:
