1)Ok, I really need to know HOW they really effect you character. Please correct me if I'm wrong, and tell me if theres any other major things.

Strength - Damage and % to hit right?
Dexterity - less AC?
Constitution - Hit Points
Intelligence - Amount of Spells
Wisdom - spells...
Charisma - ?

WHICH one of these affects your dialogue choices... was it wisdom or intelligence, I forgot..

2) Should I duel wield Anomen with Crom Faeyr and Flail of the Ages, or should i duel him in ToB?

THANKS!

Woops and 1 more question...

Theres a place to download a thing were it lets you have the 2 extra merchants (from collecters addition and pre-order).

Should I download it? and thats all that it adds right? I don't want extra things...

unless theres a new one since two weeks ago it only adds one bonus merchant, with the items from Planescape Torment. plus it gets rid of TOB bugs etc. oh yeah - you need TOB for it.

about the stats - charisma effects how much shops cost and rewards for certain quests. INT can affect conversation choices, but i do not know of any effect from this outside of the underdark.

and DEX also effects you effectivness with missile weaps. INT/WIS effect mages(INT) and priest(WIS) spells respectively.

STR effects you max weight

its all in the table on page 117, although CON has NO effect on your chance to survive resurrection, its always 100%, guess because everybody would just save/reload elsewise.

There are two. One in the Adventure's Mart, and one in the
Copper Coronet.

Dex. also helps you lower your armor class


STR effects you max weight

Also affects your To Hit Armor Class 0, and damage bonuses

No, you don't. It was designed for SoA.

The patch gives you two merchants (Copper Coronet, Adv. Market)
with awesome items. I don't know how to insert an adress here.
Use the search, (bonus merchants) and there will be a bunch of
posts. Find one with the site and it's at the very bottom.
Sorry couldn't help more.
