What do they do and who do they hit? I didn't have any silver weapons at my disposal to kill the werewolves on Lycanthrope Island. At least, I think not. Are those mechanics used? And is it possible to expand the list? For example, item properties also list "Off-handed," but the Immunity to Weapons effect does not.

These properties are totally wonked in BG2... as you read that, the +3 weapons are Cold Steel, Silver ETC besides being enhanced&magical. Originally the BG1 had 4 weapons that could hit them... now it has as many as you install mods into it.

It can be expanded to your minds content, within the restrictions of the game engine. The game has a rule that +1 weapons are able to kill most magical being, while the non-magical can't. Silver flagged weapons are able to kill werewolves... and the Greater Werewolves/Loup F-something require the coldsteel/gold weapons to kill. The Liches, are immune to at least non-enhanced weapons as are most golems. Some Demons have a +2 enhancement requirement, and the Pit Fiend in somewhere has a +3. You could deepend this system to take a spreadsheet to count all the possibilities. But most +3 weapons have all the properties and... you better not F it up, without a very good reason.


Yep, Jarno Mikkola. my Mega Mod FAQ. Use of the BWS, and how to use it(scroll down that post a bit). 
OK, desert dweller, welcome to the sanity, you are free to search for the limit, it's out there, we drew it in the sand. Ouh, actually it was still snow then.. but anyways.
