Hello,
I still don't quite understand the Half-Elf's "Dilletante" system
It says "For item purposes you are treated as ..." ... a certain class.
My question now is : What exactly is meant with this "for item purposes" ? And what items exactly are affected by this ?
So far I've understood it so - but I'm not sure at all whether I understood that correctly, hence my question here - that there are items which can only be used by a certain class.
Like ... a wand with a spell that has no UMD check for ... a Warlock. Or a Cleric for example.
But ... is this limited to only wands ? Or do there exist otgher items affected by this "for item purposes" as well ?
I do know that there are for example certain items supporting the Cleric's "Turn Undead" ability. To other classes, these items are of no use.
But ... a Cleric Dilletante can't turn Undead, right ? So, this item makes not much sense for a Half-Elf who is a "Cleric Dilletante".
What else is there of items that can be affected by this "for item purposes" ?
Background is that I plan to do a full Inquisitive this time (for guild runs), with a Half-Elf, but I do wonder what would be the best for solo survivability ?
Since the Inquisitive heavily relies on Charisma, I've decided to use a class which is mainly Charisma-based as well.
A Bard would be nice (more skillpoints), but seems to be a bit difficult in soloing ?
( I'd need Dexterity for Crossbows as well, I thought. )
So, the question arose which Dlletante would be best for survivability. And then I asked myself : "What items are actually meant with that "for item purposes" ? Because ... of course ... I would like to be able to use items which support survivability.
Is someone able to give me examples for this "for item purposes" ? Because I learn best from examples.
And ... I can understand the point with wands. But, what other kinds of items might be meant there ? (Again I'm asking for examples.)
