And if you need an endless river of money, out their gear in your bag and sell it. It's tedious, but it will get you all the money you could ever want.

Does the combat abilities of your equipped weapon work with the reflected arrows from the reflection shield? If that is the case the reflection shield may be the best item in the game for a solo character.

Good point! Anyone?

Perhaps this works with Sarevok's Deathbringer Assault.

Bah it didn't work. Too bad but it makes sense I guess.
Still it is a good shield, and there are many more archers in ToB.
Shield of harmony is also very good, especially if you are a cleric.

Shield of Harmony is just as great when you're not a Cleric. Clerics may not be able to dual-wield very well (so are designated shield users), but they have Chaotic Commands, which temporarily makes the Shield of Harmony redundant.

Lightbulb Infinite XP

From a roleplaying aspect, the only viable route to infinite XP is helping to defend the walls of Saradush. I had my party man the ramparts for a few days. I rested in the inn at night, and had a runner who was Johnny of the spot with the ammo. After some time they realized that the the only effective defence of the town was a good offence, and went after Yaga. At 8K per Fire Giant, you level up pretty fast, but you go through several forests worth of arrows.
