    That's only a score of 70 total. It is unbelievable that a half-orc with int. and wis. scores of 3 could live past the age of 12 without walking of a cliff.

    umm sorcerors and kensai's don't need high int. My wizard was also lev 25 when finished tho he had 20 int :) One bonus int from a tome in BG, and the second one (which wasn't really necessary but Aerie had 16 int so it wouldn't help her for 9th lev spells) from lum's machine. But she could cast them from scrolls.

    And what good does high wisdom for non-cleric pcs ? Other than the lore bonus that is. Does it give you some bonus to saving throws ? And what is a mag def adjustment to which it gives bonus :)

    First time I gave BG2 a shot I tried to get a character with skills corresponding to my real-life martial arts training.

    Katanas ***
    Dagger **
    Club ***
    Long bow *

    Problems: Dagger and throwing dagger are the same skill -- and if I threw a dagger it'd end up in my toe.

    I think I'd either be the 1/2 orc fighter that I am currently playing now or Minsc.... big, dumb but not stupid, and funny (and I am not talking about looking in mirrors).
