Invisible Blade/Throwing Knives

[jamaisvu]

So I have a character that I'm intending to go for Invisible Blade, but are Throwing Knives an 'allowable' weapon to focus in? I don't know if you can mechanically select them/if they work, or if you should select darts instead?

[Garage Trashcan]

You're better off going darts since throwing knives are non-standard and the feats are finnicky with them.

Welcome to CD!

Sorry, off topic.

Technically, all throwing knives on the server ARE darts, just with a knife model.  You take WF darts for them.

However, due to the NWN engine, throwing knives are impractical as a primary weapon.

[jamaisvu]

Ah, sweet! Thank you very much!

[Fire Wraith]

The ones in the shop should have the knife model, though - we'll get that changed.  Bella is correct though, mechanics wise they're treated as darts, since it's ridiculously hard to make new ranged weapons/ammo in NWN.

I have a Rogue/InvBlade who uses darts/throwing knives as his primary ranged weapon and have they have worked well. Mind you, mechanically you are better off with bows, but for fun and flavor I like the throwing knives.

[Arya]

I have an elf who prefers throwing knives over other ammo weapons, and light/elvish crossbows over longbows. ;-) It is -all- about flavour and style!

I've found them to work quite well so far. :>

Darts do more damage than longbows at higher levels if you have access to GMW/ Elemental Weapon.

Throwing weapons are enchantable? That is fantastic.

[Ogre Time Yay]

It's a good thing they weren't enchantable when I was a giant fly, that could have been fatal for me. I like throwing knives, I-I like knives in general. They're sharp, they're shiny, and you can uh... You can uh... Throw them. Now imagine... If they were invisible, I'm Jeff Goldblum.

[jamaisvu]

No no Jeff Goldblum, you're invisible.

Hi there, I was thinking of joining the server, and am just doing some research on the server history, classes etc. Where it says this is an high BAB class, does that mean it's full BAB like ranger/fighter etc? Just looking at aspects of four attacks per round. Lots of neat classes you can apply for, trying to decide on something like ranger/invisible blade/assassin, or rogue instead, if you can still hit the four attacks per round with the invisible blade giving 1 bab. (Sorry, I'm horrible with builds, great at ideas behind characters and story ideas etc, but never the builds to represent them.)

[The Red Mage]

Yes. It is full bab.
