It kinda depends on the quest... I find the NWN2 console much less friendly than the console with NWN - so if I feel the need to do a spot of cheating I tend to use the Save Game/Character Editor. This can be used to up your stats, add/remove inventory items and bugger about with your henchmen - one of its best features. I tend to remove the Hold Person Spell From Grobnar as he uses it too much and it can really spoil the momentum of a fight
