I'm not sure this is a bug per se as much as a usability issue. When assigning a weapon to my golum as an alchemist (love the class so far by the way) there are a couple of issues that I've noticed.
First, when selecting the weapon the strength required is in red even though my golum's strength meets the requirements, I believe it is looking at my strength for highlighting.
Once I select the weapon it says "Gollum is now wearing X", but X is still in my inventory with nothing to show that the gollum is using it. Will it still be using it if I destroy/drop/sell the item?
The last is more of a question, is there a way to see a character sheet for my gollum? I can look at it to get the stats but that doesn't show damage, defense and everything else. Thanks!

Ehrm, it is "just" a Golem (no offense meant to the category), let's leave the poor Smeagol alonepaboperfecto wrote:Once I select the weapon it says "Gollum is now wearing X", but X is still in my inventory with nothing to show that the gollum is using it.

No way at the present moment, I agree with you that it could be nice, along with a "Peek at Golem's inventory 'cause my memory often fails me" feature.The last is more of a question, is there a way to see a character sheet for my gollum?

Re: [Beta 9] Golum equipment and inventory
This looks like it was the case. I just had a bunch of iron battle axes (unidentified) which is what my creature was wearing.In my experience, the weapon should disappear from your inventory and be replaced by the one the Golem was using previously (and yes, they are already born with a basic armor and a weapon). May it be that it was just wielding an identical weapon, and thus you didn't notice the difference?
