    [​IMG] I haven't tried this for myself but my friend told me if you put weapons from the underdark in someones inventrory and then send the person carryng them back to Amn before completing the underdark you can go get that person back in your team and they'll still have the weapons once you reach Amn. He told me this quite a while ago and I can't remeber if he told me to put the items in a bag of holding or not. If anyone tries it please let me know how it works. shot.

    Yeah, it works; it's a pretty well-known exploit. The only two areas that are scripted to "dust" adamantine items are the Exit from the Underdark and the random encounter with Drizzt & company. You can even do it without sending someone back to Athkatla (or wherever), but it's a lot more trouble than it's worth.

    Putting them in a Bag of Holding just allows the person you send back to hold more.

    How much would you want to send back anyway.
    Only those items that are made of Adamantine are affected. And only the Armours are of any use, a couple of plate and chain should be enough.
    The weapons are pretty plain and sheilds are not that great. All that stuff can be sold to the druegar merchants in the south.

    Don't forget Sola's cloak, that one is quite good IMO. Besides, i've always liked Piwafwis.

    The baddest armors are +5 full plate right? That's a hefty AC boost, and IIRC you can cast spells in the drow Chainmails too.

    Jaheira works well with this exploit since she automatically heads for the Harper base. I found it silly, though the Plate +5 is so nice.

    If you boot a party member out while they have the Bag of Holding, don't they give it back before leaving? I know they give back the Ring of Gaxx when you boot them out of the party. :rolling:
