I'm up to the point now that I can get Cernd. He seems to be pretty good from what I hear, but I'm pretty used to Jahiera. I've been using her since the early goings in BG1.

Any suggestions as to who is better? And why?

I would choose Jaheira, cause she is just as good spellcaster as Cernd, and she is a usable fighter to.

Though i dont see jaheira growing claws and rejuvenating with a
25 cons. ....

Cernd is far superior to Jahera.

One Word "werewolf".

You might be right about that, daan and BALROGBANE, but Jaheira can change to a wolf and both brown- and blackbears.

And your point is?

Ok, Cernd may have an advance there. But I still thinks that Jaheira is the better choice!

Seriously though Cernd's level moves up quicker and he kicks mind flayer but as a greater werewolf.

Are greater werewolfs immune to psionics? Why is Cernd that effective?

I am wandering around in Chap 2 (loving it, my first time playing) as an Archer. I have Jaheira and Cernd (and Aerie, Minsc and Yoshimo). I feel like I need more muscle up front. Using the druids as animals deprives me of their spell casting and tehy don't seem to be able to take much damage.

Should I drop one of them? What NPC should I pick up for some good fighting and high HP?

Also, is it _possible_ to get a druid up to 14th level and take over the grove? Would One be better? I dig the idea of getting a druid that high in levels. But Cernd is only level 10 and level 11 seems so far away.
