    Ok I have a odd occurance here.
    I created a TOB Bard and then exported/inported into SOA when I got high level abilities I started to collect strongholds all over the game when I chose use any item. currently I have the bard and ranger stronghold and was ofered the cleric's room as well. Has this happend to anyone else ?

    P.S. this might be a good way to play all the strongholds if you wanted to...

    It can be only a bug.
    The game tests for certain variable if player already has stronghold, plus there is a test of player's current class.

    If there is an abusive bug with Use any item ability, I'll try to remove it. But I still don't geddit how have you managed to get both ranger AND cleric stronghold - variable check should prevent that. Um, there is no variable check for a bard, paladin, etc strongholds of classes that can't normally dual, so I suppose Use any item is cause of the mess you've got.

    Yep, well, you've detected it right Tal. The latest Weimer's "Ease-of-Use" mod which is in fact collection of different cheats and tweaks and has inside the part to gain all strongholds (all dialogue checks are removed). Link for those interested in that one: http://www.sorcerers.net/Games/BG2/index_editors7.php

    Weimer noted that such cheat exists also at Baldurdash site.

    Anyway, no bug, but instant death to this thread. :evil::p

    [EDIT]
    Um, obviously someone made me to use Wand of Resurrection...
