Oh, boy... that would be great, too. Can't tell you how many times I've slogged a set of base full plate around, just so o didn't leave it out to take up server space. 50gp. Woo.

(1) It's 500gp + (depending on your negotiating abilities ;) )
(2) PCTools - build campfire - dump plate into fire - ignore the physics (how the hell a campfire would melt a steel fullplate? :mrgreen: ) - open PCTools/Miscellaneous - click "Remove", click campfire. 8-)

That takes a lot of time to do - something quicker to destroy an unwanted item would be really nice to have.

~20 seconds are "a lot of time"? :shock:
Are you really sooo tight on time?
Why?

Why?
Jokes off
Just my honest unpopular opinion - yes it is a lot of time compared to 2 seconds it takes to leave it on the ground and not care about server clutter.

Jokes on
When you consider you'll have -20 seconds many times every day it cumulates for a time it takes to make a sandwich... and between server lags and a sandwich - decision is simple.

To make a proper sandwich takes about 5 minutes. You mean that you run around finding things too heavy to carry around 15 times/day on average?
That explains a lot.
We're talking about completely different worlds / playstyles then.

5 mins!? That'd get you fired in the industry.

Fair point, there. I do forget about the campfire.

I wonder if it could be possible to have a "bag of holding" that, instead of allowing you to actually store items in it (avoiding server performance decrease), increases your carry weight ? I'm not a scripter and never touched the nwn2 editor (beyond making it say Hello World), so I don't know what the problems associated with that would be.

i do not think there is a why to arbitrarily raise carry weight since its tied to the str score

Currently we dont want to implement bags of holding and items such as the ones you describe. Performance issues aside, it takes away yet another thing from STR characters, especially those in heavy armor.

There are too many PRCs, feats and systems that favor combinations of High DEX/INT characters more than High STR ones in heavy armor
