What level do you have to be in order to use a +3 weapon on avlis?

I don't know the answer to that question, but I will say this: don't expect to see one for a long, long time.

same level you'd need to be to use a +3 weapon anywhere, 9? (i think) maybe only 7. If you wanted to know, you could open the toolset, grab a random +3 weapon, and check the required level. Sorry I cnat remember

Avlis use a custom ILR script, it's usually a couple of levels above the toolset level restriction, iirc.
Always consider alignment as a tool, not a straitjacket that restricts the character.

I believe it was at level 9, but I'm giving no guarantees. The ILR depends on the price of the item, including all enchantment bonusses.
So much fun,
yet so little time to enjoy it.

Using a weapon enchanted on the hands of a different character can lead to very bad consequences iirc. Never tested it out so don't really know but it could get ugly so better don't :P

Edit: Doh, just realised what you meant after Deider replied. What I said is still true though :P

Temporary properties on weapons do not change their value - hence, they have no effect on ILR.

The required level for weapons +3 in NWN is 10 but in my experience, the custom ILR script in Avlis reduces this by 1. So the answer is level 9, as Sindol said.
