Title: (improved) Expertise and casting
Post by: Amadan's Fool on December 27, 2010, 05:24:21 PM

The Lore section says that "by default NWN allows spellcasting while using expertise" : LORE: Expertise (http://lore.layonara.com/Expertise)

I am hoping to make a sorcerer for whom this would be useful. However, I understand that this default setting is often turned off in PWs.

Could someone let me know whether I will be able to enter expertise in combat and then cast spells without provoking attacks of opportunity etc? (Or have I just misunderstood the way it works anyway)

Thanks.

Amadan

It is turned off.

Expertise changes your armor class and your attack bonus; it does not provoke an attack of opportunity; it does not affect others' attacks of opportunity against you.
