I've really never taken Aerie for very
long, I want to know if she is a good
character to finish the game with.
Yes I know she is so darn cute, but will
she pull her weight in the party?

IMHO she is an excellent Mage/Cleric to have in the intial stages of the game, in the first 3 chapters, but towards the end her rather slow leveling-up will place her behind the more powerful NPCs like Imoen and Nalia (spell casting-wise). But you will need to keep her if you are pursuing a romance, if not then Nalia or Anomen are good alternatives (depending on what your party needs most, a mage or cleric).

Also you might need to keep that Rod of Ressurection handy cause you gonna have to use regularly with her since that sub 50-60 HP will not cut anymore.

Just my thougts on this....

I give aerie five stars. By the end of SOA I had her up to level 19 level cleric/17 level mage. But she was ne of the very first people I picked up. And I think by that point I had already exceeded the XP cap... Anyway with a belt of giant strengh she eventually becomes a half decent fighter. just for when she runs out of spells though. thats just my thoughts though...

I have a clan of over 30 followers dedicated to Aerie!
It's called the ALSB (Aerie Loving Sacred Band)
Do you wanna join?

Although i havent got it yet, aerie is the only one of my party who is prof with hammers, and so will be getting crom fayer. just think, cute elf that can carry three quarters of a ton(imperial)

Besides, shes got the healing AND direct offensive, and is the best at low level spells, and with TOB the exp cap is high enough for her to get level 9 as well.

only prob with my plan is that jaheira is gonna lose her gloves of ogre power. sigh

I love aerie, but I don't see why there is all these clans and the like. Because for all of the hundreds, if not thousands, of followers she has, there is still only one aerie... And I don't think shes that kind of girl...

im trying to use aerie as my only mage. currently in spellhold and havent had any problems so far. with an invisibility spell or staff of the magi she can turn undead till the cows come home.

although i think i will miss a few spells like horrid wilting, by the time my previous mages were able to cast 7/8th level spells, the rest of my party was already beefy enough to not need them. im hoping that this will make her as a mage a necessity rather than a luxury. and for all those tough mage battles those higher level spells are so good for, i still have yet to find a spell better than Polymorph Self:mustard jelly for sucking up all those nasty enemy spells. the rest of the party can shoot down any summoned monsters while she scoffs at the petty magics being hurled at her 100% magic resistant, slime covered form.
