I am thinking which item to choose. Noble necklace is very good, but my sword suck. (kinda 40-60 dmg +modifiers)

Will there be good swords later in the game, so then now to skip with this holy one and just pick necklace?

Pls advise.

There will be a better sword later in the game, but getting a better amulet than the holy one is rare.

I say get the amulet and reload until you get decent mods and 5 charm slots, you'll be uber happy with that!

ahh thank you! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

What have you done to make that Smith mad? Have you tried bribing him to make him happy again?
Visit that <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" /> Kistandopopolopus mage in ars magicana, he often has books + some 20k money.

I threw something out of Krists house so I could 'steal' it further away so he wouldn't see... what did I know that George woul also react on it. and it was too long ago since my last save. he's now at -27 and I can NOT give him anything, the only dialog option I have is 'farewell', trading button is disabled

ohh no, thats really annoying. Yes, I have to admit that he is the richest guy. He often has 50k.


But, really pay more attention to those 2 merchants, selling magic books. - They will help you to get rid of your equipment.

BTW. I keep all my equipment in the chest in that smith house. Safe behind always locked door <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

You can find great 1h or 2h swords all ovet the game but you will not come across good daggers or great amulets. I picked dagger for my mage and I regret it now. Great amulets are really rare. You can get Kista's dagger and it is as good as the holy dagger.
So I vote for amulet. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Good for you! Be sure that you only use GOLD CHARMS on this one. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Sure, yesterday I have purchased one gold charm from an elf for just 80k <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Money is not a problem.

I bought many gold charms from Kroxy for 50000 gold each. Money was a problem for me <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shame.gif" alt="" />

I had 500000 gp when I entered the Wastelands - and didn't even touch it. Those imps drop a lot of good stuff you can trade for charms, Egin. Besides them loosing gold charms, too.
