With a 25 Strength, what can't you hit?

daaamn...I knew I´d forgotten something

Where do I find the items to forge it....I have the scroll

this is the solution to the fighter/cleric problem: Paladins
at level 17 (BG2 highest level) they have level 14 turn undead, which will make a skeleton warrior get fear instntly, and have spells: 3 1st lvl, 3 2nd lvl, 3 3rd lvl and 1 4th lvl.
this means you can have a load of lowish healing spells as well.
nb i would still have Aerie and/or Jaheira with this as they are both good npcs

Goto Cromwell in the Docks section to forge the Crom Faeyr...

And I vote in favor of Clerics, although NOT for healing spells. I've found that I found enough healing potions throughout the game.

Jaheira (Insect Plague, Summon Fire Elemental) and Anomen/Viconia (Negative Plane Protection, Chaotic Commands, Holy Smite) have proved to be very useful. At one point I had both Anomen and Viconia in my party - this was a nice combination when battling undead (vampires, liches, etc).

Finally gave Viconia the boot in favor of another tank (Keldorn & then Valygar) but Jaheira and Anomen will remain in my group.

I was kinda looking for some spoilers on locations on the items to forge Crom Fayer...I know that it is Cromwell that idealistic

....read kapitalistic...dwarf that can forge the items

wo would remove paralysis?
ever heard of chaotic commands?
And all cool stuf like mass cure and so on.
Discopalace?

2 seem fine fore me, but then again they have other uses (J, and Aeire) so theyer both duel classed, theyer usfull for more than just healing etc, if you have a full class cleric(Anomen, Viconia or your PC) you prolly wont need anther. Thats my felling anyway, I rarely use healing spells, nobdoy seems to die when I fight, so i can just rest-untull-healed my way back to full, but they do come in handy now and then.

are you kidding? priests rock
they can cast
holy smite
chaotic commands
summon (fallen) deva's
summon skeleton warriors
and can even summon elemental princes
and all of this while wearing a full plate

Well you're right in the sense that there are a handful of spells that are great priest spells. I just find the others are wasted. I use about 2-3x as many mage spells as I use priest spells. But without some of those priest spells, you are at a disadvantage. I guess I wish there were more good priest spells compared to mage spells...
