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

This could be UD specific. But leveling a Phantom I've noticed it doesn't get trapfinding until 8. Most of the chests in CR appropriate areas by level 4 need it to disarm the traps. I also noticed in Kaerdrin's original PRC pack they get it at 1.

I feel like this is one of those initial BGTSCC Phantom nerfs that should probably be rolled back. It doesn't effect the ultimate power of the class but it does make early game play more difficult for no particular reason.

Looking at the FR page on Ninjas, Phantoms should have sense motive and gather information. I'm guessing these were probably missed when skills were added to the server.

Using Ghost Step currently does not deplete charges. Definitely needs to be fixed.

At the same time there seem to be some issues with both it an Ghost Walk. 1) on several occasions I've had archers shoot me through it. It's not a case of delayed damage either. I was ethereal while running through an area, passed some archers, started getting shot. 2) Attacks of Opportunity are a real issue. Worse than with HiPS. Perhaps due to it being an instant action you can perform while in combat. As opposed to need to break combat for HiPS. I wonder if perhaps it is possible to disable AoOs while ethereal?
