Hi Artea, depending on the level of your Cleric, Turning undead may either cause undead creatures to run away, and sometimes even die. Some Undead don't seem to be affected though, but it is definately useful.

Turning undead allows a cleric to "channel" godly power in order to drive away or destroy utterly all undead creatures. The more powerful the undead (vampire, lich) the harder they are to affect. They may even get saves at those levels. The cleric does have some limits on the numbers of undead he can affect.

Something worth mentioning is that Evil Clerics( ie Viconia) will actually cause Undead to join the party much like a summoned creature. I managed to get a group of Vampires that attacked me to fight amongst themselves.

Hmmm yeah...I'm trying to build up my cleric right now (9th level ranger/14th level cleric)...I want to see if I can get Templar to a point that I can just walk into Bodhi's lair in chapter 6 and blow the Vampires apart (and, if that doesn't work, then do that in Saradush in the old jail)

To Masteraleph: It depends on your level. I suspect the game that your Turn Undead level (i.e., your level in the case of clerics) must be greater than the level of the turned undead if you want to suceed in turning. The greater is the difference between your Turn Undead level and the monster level the higher is your chance to destroy the undead. Let us note that liches have level 20 - 26.
My experience. I like to play a party of three dual class characters so that my level is 25 or so when it comes to the final deal with Bodhi. My ranger/cleric can enter the lair, leave the rest of the party near the exit and stroll the lair with Turn Undead active. All vampires, wraiths and similar monsters get destroyed immediately. They have no chance. Bodhi seems to be protected from Turn Undead - I have never succeed in turning her. Also those warriors formed from a skull, shield and sword are immune to turning undead.
