Baldur's Gate : The Sword Coast Chronicles : NWN2 Persistent World

I plan to create a character that is basically pure wizard and Archmage, and I want to take some armor feats and wear armor, and maybe a shield, etc.

I know that I won't have the most uber powerful toon that is possible or whatever, but I don't really care, I just want to know how the high arcana feats will interact with the armor, still spell, auto-still, etc.

Does arcane fire even have somatic components? I'm assuming that things like mastery of shaping will just depend on what spell im casting or what not (ETC, a still spelled fireball changed to cold damage would be fine, but one without using still spell would be effected by arcane spell failure).

Thanks for any help! Wish there was a way to test this stuff myself, so I wouldn't have to be a bother, but I don't want to RCR and find my character unable to use most of the stuff I want to use.

Tried that, and it doesn't grant the archmage qualification, so even when i have the required feats and stuff, I can't take a level to try it out unfortunately :/

Run the BGTSCC JEGS module and open the command console (~ key) and type in DebugMode 1

Then select your character in game and type GiveFeat 2798

Your mage will now be qualified to become an archmage

Thanks! got it working that way, but now it seems like Arcane Spell Failure isn't working at all, so I really can't tell if the Arcane fire is subject to it, or if using a stilled spell to convert to arcane fire would work.

I think it's working though. I don't think the Arcane Fire functions like a spell with somatic components, but I guess I won't be totally sure until someone confirms it, or I make it to that level
