Your still thinking in the wrong context, Smith. The idea of this game is not to have a perfect char or a party that beat anything or anybody. It's just supposed to be a game that you can enjoy playing from different perspectives. On the BG2 forum someone had a good term for major powergamers: munchkin lords. This goes right back to the role player vs power gamer discussion that your last thread took part in. Have you tried a game in which you didn't reroll your stats, or not max out only the abilities you 'need' for that char? If you haven't, you most definitely should, it's very liberating to just enjoy the game and not worry about obtaining every item in the game, or every quest around. Play from the perspective of your char; would he enjoy the company of the people currently in your party? Would he want to use a certain weapon because of sentimental value, or discard another because some foul creature used it? You decide, that's what it's all about. It's not supposed to be some slug-feast where u get everything u can and then kill everyone else, it's a gaming experience. You make your own story, what would you want your char to be known for?

Later!
