Is this a known Imoen bug?

    [​IMG] I did a search but couldn't find anything related to it.

    I just started a new game and realized during combat that Imoen gets no bonus on her THACO when using a short bow. So the dice rolls always read:
    Dice roll + 0 = Dice roll.

    Since her Dex is at 18, she should have a +3 bonus to hit IMO. Is there anything I'm missing? :confused: Thanks.

    P.S: I have TotSC installed and the appropriate patch - I think! - also on.

    Double-check her ThAC0 with the bow. IIRC, you should see two numbers. One is her base ThAC0, the other is her modified ThAC0 when using a bow. Switch her between bow and small sword, and you should see a change.

    @MrNexx:
    BG1 doesn't have the Base THAC0 thing. That was implemented in BG2, and stormhand said he has TotSC, not Tutu. Easy mistake. :)

    @stormhand:
    I think what it does is adjusts her THAC0 downward, so at 1st and 2nd level, her THAC0 with a bow will be 18 (+2 to hit for 18 DEX, +3 for 19 DEX). If that's what you see on the Record page, then you're fine.

    It was implemented before BGII, because I've got it in IWD, but ok.

    Never played TuTu, or even BGII for that matter.
