    [​IMG] Say I have a cleric. The char. has 3 weapon prof. points - one each in Blunt, Spiked, & Missile Weapons. If I use GK to move the Spiked prof. to Blunt, will I recieve all the benefits one would usually get for having 2 points in Blunt?

    Yes and no. I think you'll get the additional THAC0 and damage bonuses from extra stars, but not the extra attacks. That's how it works in BG2 at least.

    Okay, thanks. I'll just have to add those in myself, then.
