| Nearly every enemy mage that I encountered had all of these cool spell triggers and contingencies, and I kept thinking "I can't wait until my mages can do that. It will be fun to play around with different contingency and trigger combinations." But alas, it was not to be. I completed the game without access to chain contingency and timestop (except via scrolls), and I think that my mages had almost hit the EXP cap, so I doubt that such spells were attainable without removing the exp cap.
I'm not sure why you had this problem, but you should ask about it in the BG2/SoA forum. All of us have used contingencies from fairly early in the game, and some have produced remarkable contingency combinations that can take down gods. That's without removing any experience cap.
