Viconia is my favorite NPC, that i have to admit.. now 2 questions:

To #2:
A suit of good armor, a good mace or club, a sling, and something to boost STR, so she can wear Full Plate. Using items that help against magic aren't that useful, given her already potent percentage of Magic Resistance. Also, Viccy has low Constition, give her something that will boost it, like potions or the Belt of Fortitude. |

One of the best items for her IMO is Mauler's Arm +2 which set strength to 18, and it's not that expensive. This allows her to wear some better armor. You can give items that set it to higher than 18 to your fighters. I never really used her as a fighter, there are just too many useful cleric spells that she should be casting during battle.

Ehh . . ., I'd rather split the MR. Unless you play with only your PC and her. Still, 65% is more than enough, IMHO.

Her MR is definetly enough in 99% occasions.
She is IMHO the most advanced NPC (in all ways ), and only thing she lacks is a bit of STR to keep away the gigolos...lolSo, equip her with Crom, but grab her before she kicks your butt... unless your butt likes it... ![]() [This message has been edited by Extremist (edited January 24, 2002).] |

If you want to add more power to Viconia, but don't want to settle for 18, and you don't want to wait 'till Chapter 6 for Crom Faeyr (or if you don't believe in playing cheap
), you can get the Gauntlets of Ogre Power, then Crom. Or just get a Girdle of (whatever) Giant Strength.

I never waste 2 good strength increasing items for ONE item which gives 25, especially if you're going to give it too Viconia, who's not a fighter! I could see it's use if you're soloing though. My reasons for mentioning Mauler's Arm +2 is that it's fairly cheap, and allows her to wear some better armor without having to wait all game.
I would give all magic resistance items to your best fighter, as mage's seem to target them the most, and your mage or mages can cast spell turning or similar spells. 65% is more than enough, unless you're planning to use her as cannon fodder against liches .
