    Can anybody tell or point me to where I can find out what weapon proficiencies the NPCs have? I can't find anything like that in what I have downloaded. Specifically, I'm wondering about Shar-Teel. Yes, I suppose I could play the game and discover for myself, but that's just *useful*! :lol:

    IIRC, Shar-Teel starts out with:

    Small Sword ++
    Large Sword ++

    And then puts points in Missile Weapons. But that's only according to my - very shaky - memory. Try creating her through the console and forcing her to join. Proficiencies in BG1 are a dodgy thing to look up anyway, because it's often the case that the higher level NPC .cre files will have proficiencies inconsistent with what they would have had at low levels.

    I think that Baldurdash sorted the more obvious travesties (such as Safana starting with spear profs :doh: ) but it's difficult to get a list for all of them. I've not found such a thing, but as you're a published mod author now, it'd be a good project... ;) :p
