Hi. I'm replaying BG 2 and I'm having a couple of issues I can't understand. Firstly my character can't equip a shield even though he's using a one handed weapon. I'm a fighter, I have a point under Weapon and Shield Style, but even though I've equipped a long sword or a katana when I attempt to equip a shield it tells me I have a two handed weapon equipped. I can remember being able to do this before. Why is that?

Also, and I don't know if this is a bug, but a couple of times I've tried to talk to NPCs that I know have dialog and I just get a message saying they can't talk because they're busy. There is a magic vendor called Lady Yuth in the back of the Adventure Mart that I should be able to talk to but can't. And I seem to remember another vendor in there, just at the top of the stairs who sells high end magic items. She's gone altogether, and I'm going to need a particular magic shield from her.

And also when I first meet Aerie after I've spoken to her once and retrieved her key sword from the monsters, when I talk to her again she's busy and I can't talk to her. What's going on?

Many thanks.

My game is v2.5.2646 with Throne of Bhaal installed.

There is a mod that allows you to set katanas as 2-handed weapons, but if you're showing that for long swords as well it is probably a bug. 

There are occasions when characters legitimately say they are busy as a result of their script waiting for something to happen.  However, again it sounds like it might be a bug in your case.

The missing vendor in the adventure mart was not in the original baldur's gate, but added for platinum edition or something like that.  If you want them there are lots of mods that add them back in.

Before doing anything else I suggest you update to the final Bioware patch (v26498 for Throne of Bhaal).  Doing this will reduce the number of bugs in the game.  You can get the patch from http://www.sorcerers.../index_misc.php

As for characters e.g. merchants appearing busy, you'll need to download the final TOB patch as this fixes this error and bug. And it was for the collector's edition the version where you got all the vendors and merchants in the game.

Thanks for that. I should have checked if there was a patch out in the first place.

That's fixed all but the shield issue but I can live with that.

Thanks again.

The Shield problem is strange indeed. I know you're not new to the game but are you sure you dont have a bow or 2 handed sword equipped? Equipped is not the same as holding. I.e. If it's up there in your 4 slots of equipped weapons then you cant equip shield.

The shield issue is easy. You have a bow in your weapon hotslot. Even if the bow is not currently equipped, it is still impeding your offhand.

The UI for BG is over 10 years old, after all. It can't quite handle swapping your shield to inventory when you click over to use the bow.

It's one of the reasons why 2 handed weapons are nice, you can keep the bow hotbared full time.
