Some of this stuff is a bit spoilish.
1) I'm about as lucky with BG2 romance as I am in RL, so you'll have to find help elsewhere on that one.
2) The astral level isn't too bad. Be sure to work your way east instead of north from the beginning. The plot unfolds as you go that direction, and you'll find a way to make the level much easier.
3) I usually put this battle off until a little later in the game. You can attack them from up to three directions at once, but I usually just spell up and send in a couple of pets for a bit extra fire power.
4) The door behind the guys in the last question isn't related to the Unseen Eye quest (go to the far southwest of the sewer map for that quest). The key can be obtained by completing the Windspear Hills quest.
5) You can buy a magic license from the Cowled Wizards in the Government Building which will allow you to use magic in the city. I guess the thugs and bandits dished out the cash already which is why they don't get busted. It's debatable whether or not it's necessary to spend the cash on it. If your party is heavy on magic, it's probably worth the price.
