There is an option in IWD that allows you to gain the maximum possible number of hit points when your character levels up. How many of you use this option?, how necessary is it to completing the game (in Heart of Fury mode for example)?, or do you like to stick to the AD&D rules and go with the "roll of the dice"?

Personally I prefer to have max hps turned on. Not because it necessarily makes the game easier, but because it reduces the amount of re-loads you have to do after death. Also it has to be said that at the higher levels having a mage with only 30-35 hps is a royal pain in the arse, one half decent area effect spell and he's toast - often literally.

For HOF mode I don't think you have any choice - unless you can find a way of winning combats without actually going into combat!! (By the way this is possible.....)
