KJMiller Apprentice Member # 7134	written Saturday, June 10 2006 12:22 Profile #0 I keep getting blown to bits by traps in the goblin fort and I suspect it's because my Tool Use isn't high enough. I know the Tool Use stat exists (instant help and tip boxes refer to it), but I can't find it listed anywhere when I bring up character info. Any ideas? Thanks! -------------------- kjmiller Posts: 8 | Registered: Monday, May 15 2006 07:00

Instead, increase resistance to physical damage. Luck should also be a godsend. -------------------- quote: Originally written by Kelandon Well, I'm at least pretty Posts: 1115 | Registered: Sunday, May 15 2005 07:00
Or else o'erleap. Law Bringer Member # 335	written Saturday, June 10 2006 14:58 Profile Homepage #2 The base value for Tool Use without training is (INT + DEX) / 4, and I think this formula holds true even if you don't have the skill. Increasing a fighter's dexterity or a druid's intelligence will therefore help you deal with traps. —Alorael, who has just realized again how much he likes the Nethergate/Avernum system of traps. Traps should never be circular blobs that are extremely visible. A4, that would be you. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00
