There is a really cheesy way to get Crom Faeyr *and keep the items*
[QUOTE=Alessio Ronchi]
After beating Firkraag, I took his scales to Cromwell to forge the armor but when I arrived at the docks a group of smugglers attacked me. I thought, who cares? I don't want to waste my time fighting those ...

IIRC, charisma isn't implemented as a sorcerer's primary attribute (thus gaining bonus spells) until AD&D 3rd edition rules.
The BG series uses 2nd edition rules, yet despite this, arcane spellcasters get no bonus spells *at all* in the BG series (either through high int, or high cha).
If you want ...

I found [url="http://www.3ddownloads.com/forge/forgottenwars/audio/BG2Music.zip"]this[/url] - although I haven't downloaded it, so I don't know if it contains the file you're looking for.
If it doesn't have the file, then it's entirely possible that the guy at myspace ...

What can I do with Montaron's body ?
I know you get XP for finding it, but does anybody actually want it (the authorities, or possibly the tanner)?
I'm considering "burying" it in one of the coffins in the graveyard district, or maybe just dumping it in the sewers, or even in one of the diners ...

You can use a console command to enter the circus - CLUAConsole:MoveToArea(" AR0604 ")
You might have to forfeit the reputation point from the guard when the quest is over, but that seems a lot less painful than doing a clean install.

1. The spells you mentioned are all useful before entering battle. Protection from evil (10 ft radius) is also a very good spell for turning the tide in your favour.
Cure light wounds only heals 7 hp iirc, but as your cleric levels up, he/she will have access to more powerful healing spells - even ...

Nine is good for a mage, because you're not going to melee with your mage if you can help it...
But for a thief, the extra thac0 and damage at level 12, coupled with the extra use of kai, is going to make them pretty fearsome in combat (hastened, dual-wielding thief with kai and 5x backstab damage ...

One of the spells she casts is rigid thinking, which is very much like confusion.
It's likely that one of your party attacked a bystander while under the influence of the spell, and that's why the rest of the patrons are hostile towards you.

After *A LOT* of reloading, I finally got the Staff of the Magi :D
Does the spell trap ability absorb healing spells and defensive/buff spells on the wielder?
If so, can this be bypassed by unequipping it prior to buffs/heals, and if so (lot of "ifs", but bear with me...) does re-equipping it drain ...

I don't know what mod has caused this, but for some reason, every time I create a sorceror, their base thac0 is set to zero!!!
Would somebody kindly tell me what the appropriate base thac0 for a level 9 sorceror with 9 str should be so that I can make the necessary changes?
Thanks in advance

Temple of Elemental Evil is a good romp.
It uses AD&D 3.5 rules, and can be picked up very cheaply.
Combat is all turn-based, which gives you greater micromanagement control over your party, but this means that battles take longer.
Plenty of good fan-made mods available for it as well, although I ...

It does tend to crash a bit though, I'm guessing more than the standard version, once every 2-3 hours or so.
The crashes mostly take place upon entering or leaving Beregost.
