You should be able to extract using WinBiff without changing the original, as long as you go in as "Normal" and not "Advanced." I generally extract the items to a folder on my desktop.

Also, when you're putting them back, place them in the "Override" folder in your game's main folder (e.g., C:\Program Files\Black Isle\BGII-SoA\Override ). The game always checks the Override folder first, then the main bif files in the Chitin.key file in the game folder.

When you're in IEEP, there should be an option for "Color Gradient Scheme." This will open a webpage to TeamBG's listing of all the colors and their values. I have it bookmarked at home, but I'm at work right now, but you should be able to find it when you're looking at the properties of an item.

P.S. I never had much use for Haer'Dalis. But that's just my opinion. The game lacks good NPC bards.
