    Goodberry: Goodberry was declared utterly worthless by many people in QA. I modified it to be slightly less worthless. The idea was that goodberry could essentially create little iron ration equivalents that could be spread out through the party. That way, in a battle like the palisades, where characters might be spread out, the PCs don't have to go running to the druid or cleric for healing.

    And my druid was incredibly powerful throughout IWD2. I used Entangle, Spike Growth, Cloudburst, Beast Claws, Thorn Spray, Flame Strike (especially), and Aura of Vitality a lot. And his shapeshifting forms weren't too shabby, either.

    Ability Modifying Items Used To Get Feat Pre-req: No, feat requirements use unmodified values.

    Weapon Finesse: The PHB doesn't mention anything about a monk being able to use Weapon Finesse with fists/unarmed attacks. I don't see anything that says that unarmed attacks are "light weapons" (one of the qualifiers when choosing what weapon for the feat). Not only that, but the description for the feat talks about a rapier and the spiked chain, but makes no mention of a monk or her unarmed attacks.

    Custom Portraits: The small version can also be 24 bit. Earlier versions of the engine recommended 8 bit but you can use 24 bit images just fine now. Unfortunately the docs didn't get updated with this small change. But 8 bit images will work also so no harm if you use them.

    WRONG!!!

    Look in PHB on page 103, first collonm, the last 3 lines.
