Cursed armour?
   

I got a few items of that kind but ain't got a clue what to do with them. I suppose I could eventually equip some RPCs before killing them(?) but this sounds crazy
Actually I really am anxious to find out how to use them...

they're worth a few bux at the merchants who'll buy them, otherwise you can't do much other than practise the Remove Curse spell by repeated donning and casting....

It depends on what kind of cursed item it is.
Some are even worth using and you can equip them as normal thing especially when you know Remove Curse spell.

The problem with cursed weapons is that you can't swap them out of your character's hand to use missile weapons until a Remove Curse is cast, something that really shouldn't be done in battle.

The best thing to do is to cast Remove Curse outside of battle and get the character to swap weapons so the missile weapon is in the Primary Slot. Then the character can start using missile weapons in battle and then switch to the cursed melee weapon(s) when the enemy is at close range.

Needless to say, continually casting Remove Curse between battles can get very annoying after a while, not to mention costly in spell points/scrolls. This is where a high level Bishop comes in handy.

Sorry, it seems like I wasn't very clear. Well I was talking about those Oliveskkin things (as long as I remember there were some head, legs and torso equipable items) Now I understand that all I can do is to sell them...
I'm still curious to find out if NPCs keep the cursed armor after dismissing them. I'll try that

An interesting question... Let us know how it turns out.

Sorry. No pearls of wisdom in this oyster.
