In which book is the Wizardslayer Kit? I could've sworn it is in the Complete Fighter, but it isn't!

It would be the Complete Wizard's Handbook.

Are you sure? I can only find Wizard Kits in the Complete Wizard Handbook.

The Kit I am looking for is a Fighter Kit and grants Magic Resistance as a Benefit. The Hindurance is, that you have to hunt evil Wizards down, IIRC.

My mistake. It's in the Complete Barbarians Handbook, p.50
I don't see MR as a benefit, but there are several others, like detect magic.

A Kit for Barbarians? Hmm... I don't think this is the Kit. The Kit I am looking for, also appeared in BG2.

Thank you for your help, I'll make a topic with the same question on the dragonsfoot forum, maybe the oldtimers there know in which book the Kit is.

Actually, this kit makes perfect sense for a barbarian. Barbarians generally hate and distrust magic. They have many superstitions regarding it, and could easily adopt an attitude of "slay all wizards."

The kit description says that, "they are obsessed with destroying practitioners of evil magic", so that's consistant with your description.

Perhaps there was an FR (or another world) specific class/kit by the same name that was similiar in function?
