Remember that xp cap for IWD is 1.8 million per character, but the practical limit (the xp per character that you are likely to attain with a six person party if you do ALL the quests) is more like 1.2 million for 6.

Since you have a party of four, you will likely get to 1.8 million per character. For a dual class character, you don't want him to go any higher than half of that or its unlikely that you will ever regain your ranger abilities. So, 900,000 xp is likely an upper limit for the ranger. That would be 10th level. Since the clerical level has to exceed the ranger level to regain the ranger abilities, that means you have to hit 11th level cleric. You're in luck, an 11th level cleric needs 675,000 xp.

That way you would be absolutely certain of getting your ranger class back, and possibly be able to get your cleric to 13th level (1,125,000 xp) and give you an extra 3 and 4th level spell.
