Nothing is nicer than turning off the &$@* character editor and just going for it... Load the game if you have to. Revive characters at temples like back in the day. Do stuff. It's a great feeling to go in with Ssschah wearing well over the maximum amount of gold in equipment. Here's what he's wearing near the end in my A3 game.

Blessed Steel Helmet (+) (+1 to Melee Damage)
Pachtar's Plate Mail
Black Halberd
Vahnatai Cloak (+) (+30% Resistance: Cold Damage)
Gauntlets of Might
Pants of Power
Tremor Boots
Warrior's Ring
Strength Bracelet
War Charm

And of course, he's carrying toadstools. Better watch out for them toadstools! But yeah. My archer has some deadly equipment on him too, like the Fury Crossbow and the Archer's Cloak. The only non-magical equipment on my characters are the other three pairs of pants. Anyone know where I can find some superpantalones? ^__^

I recall enhancing all of the pants in my party. I refused to wear anything that wasn't magical by the end of the game.

I AM MR FANCY PANTS

Well, there are always the Xian Pants, but those aren't very good.

I had no problem with the Xian pants.

Nothing beats the pants of power, such a great name for a pair of pants.

Are we bragging about something? In that case, I beat Avernum 3 with a no-magic singleton (that includes no magic items).

I once beat A3 with a singleton equppied only with a pair of pants and a stick.

Pshaw.

I have repeatedly beaten A3 with my monitor turned off.

Any doubters will be sent a screen shot upon request.

From what I understand about the damage multipliers in A4, this may be possible in that game...

I remember after finishing the three quests of A1 I sold all my loot, went to Fort Gauntlet, beat up some golems and undead with my bare fists, and returned to the surface.

And by the end of A3, every single item I owned was augmented.

Hooray for munchkinism!
