I've verified that you can't pick up any backpack items or missile
weapons before 329. So the maximum penalty to Stealth at this point is
-1. Should we go with Simon's suggestion of increasing the requirement
to 9 and above? This should only penalize those who took absolutely no
bonuses in those three skills and have 4 or more backpack items, but
at least it would mean something. :)
