    While Monks can Find Traps, they can't disarm them, making the find traps feature almost useless. Given that Monks value awareness of the surroundings and perception, with Wisdom being a prime stat, I'd think that they should be able to detect illusions. It would also be a more useful use for my skill points. Is there any way to allow me to put my monk's "thief" points into detect illusion in addition to Find Traps, move silently, and hide in the shadows short of using Shadowkeeper? I'm not even sure if Shadowkeeper would work.

    What files would I edit?

    IIRC, you can sk in any thieving skill, but what to edit for automatic adding at level up is a good question (hopefully, someone can answer it).

    I'd try PMing some of the many mod makers that post on our boards and pointing them in the direction of this thread, since they seem to be making a concentrated effort to ignore this forum altogether. Really guys, you don't have to fear the "competition". :rolleyes:
