Thanks to Rosh and his simple yet effective advice I got rid of the scrolling bug. But:
-I'm now standing at the entrance to the Lower District of Sigil
-I've just trained myself to be a Warrior again by talking to Korur, the guy who stands there
-I've been a Mage until that time; as a Mage I have trained myself to be proficient with Axes (one '+')
-I have 2 unused proficiency slots
-I'm wielding an enchanted axe
-when I look at my character sheet, it says "Thac0 16" "To hit bonus: +3" "Damage bonus: +1"
BUT
-when I train 2 times and have '+++' proficiences with Axes, I look at my character sheet and all of the abovementioned characteristics stay the same! It also happens when I train only once.
What's more, the "to hit bonus" comes from one tattoo, weapon enchantment and strength. The damage bonus comes from strength.
So it appears my training didn't raise my skill in any way. That's odd; I played BG and I'm pretty sure I could see the difference right after buying a proficiency.
The manual is a very small booklet and does not cover proficiences in detail. The BG manual says that I should get +3 to hit and +3 to damage from the +++ proficiency. I should also have 3/2 attacks per round, and I have only one.
So am I missing something here, or are weapon proficiences useless in this game?
(I'm playing the latest, patched version).
