Larian Studios Forums Divine Divinity (English) Help/Tips/Tricks Stats are dynamic until item is ID'd ??

I read a post here that until an item has been id'd, the stats are not set. The post said they save and reload to get the best stats?? I tried this with an ax and got the same stats 5 times??

I did get a bow early on ( i think swiped it in one of the shops) that i id'd and at lvl 5 had a bow that hits from 8 - 96...wow, i had to get dexterity of 30 before i could use it but these extreme stats seem to suggest that the post i read might be true??

Stats are set when you use the alt-key or move the item. The reload thing works, if you havent moved or used the alt-key.

yeah, javaman, I read the same thing, and I checked it out with stealing the royal sword; it was the same every time!

so if i am capable of IDing an item, save game,move the mouse over it (don't move it) note the stats, reload ..rinse and repeat??i'll have to give this a try

don't put ur mouse over the item, save before u move ur mouse over the item.
