SoA keeps stealing my items

Big B, ROTFL!

Yep, she's definetly bald. The hair you see is a spell. Since I played F/M/T I just casted True Sight once, and spotted Jaheira's indeed interesting appearance.

Of course, you could have noticed it before - she had nice brown hair in BG1 and now that beautiful hair is gone in BG2.

Okay, perhaps we're onto something here.
Has anybody lost items who has NOT used Shadowkeeper?

I use Shadowkeeper to tweak the appearance of my characters, but nothing else (honest!).

 

I NEVER lost any item.

I NEVER used ShadowKeeper.

That's why I'm so "touchy" up there.

 

I used SK once, to correct a proficiency error hehe. but I did have that item thing happen to me BEFORE I got it. Happened with the equalizer pommel jewel and wellyn's bear. no, my inv wasnt full and it didn't drop when i recieved something and no i didn't sell/put it in bag of holding. Shit happens, it's a good thing I was playing a Monk instead of my usual Elven arse or I my bladesinger would've been pissed at the loss of his fav. sword's pommel jewel

 

i lost a few things before i used SK (never again unless i feel like making a drow or something) these include kitthix and my familiar

 

Losage of Kitthix is one of standard "glitches" (not real bug). If black spider figurine is used, and your inventory is full - figurine won't be able to return to your inventory and is lost for good.

Familiar vanish is a bug indeed, but as all real bugs, the problem was dealt long ago on these boards as you could spot above.

These two have nothing to do with ShadowKeeper.


[EDIT]

Just spotted R'Syil... Where are you man? What took you so long?

I can remember that I lost Pommel Jewel first time I played SoA, too. I got other parts of the Equalizer, but no damn jewel in my inventory! Now, I was 100% sure it was in my inventory all the time, and now it's gone... Bugs, bugs, everywhere I said and got .
Then again, I went to Cromwell (who cares why, even I don't remember why) and checked the barrel a bit south from his house - the Jewel was INSIDE! I was absolutely sure I never left the Jewel there, but I did placed many items inside that were too much for my inventory in early chapters (Kangaxx Parts, Jaheira's Hair, Empty Bottles, etc etc)... But probably accidentally I also moved Jewel from my inventory to the barrel. Or I simply forgot that I placed it there.

R'Syil, are you really sure something like this haven't happened to you?

Fair enough.
I guess Shadowkeeper is off the hook for this one then.

Darn. I don't really want to play and have to check my pockets before every save to see that nothing has gone missing. That kind of takes the fun out of it, you know?
This could be nasty if you lost a quest item and didn't realise it until much later.

Like most people, I keep all my excess inventory stashed in town. I use the shield on the wall in Walkens Promenade and the tables outside the Copper Coronet.
Nothing has ever gone missing from there (I think!).

 

That's weird! So that's why someone told me not to get too used to my cloak of mirroring. I haven't got the patch and played the game right through without a hitch. I wonder if it's because i bought a later version of the game? Also, in my version, i leave shit lying on the floor all over the place and i have always, without fail, come back to see the item exactly where i left it. I leave items on the ground, in bookshelves, on tables... all sorts of places, never had a thing go missing. One time I dropped the book of Kaza in the middle of the slums district and came back about a week later, remembering where i put it, and lo and behold, there it was just sitting there next to a cat (although it smelled a little funny after that).
