Do you play with any mods? Should try sword coast strategems II, if you haven't already. It's an AI enhancing mod and makes the game a lot more challenging. The vanilla game is truly far too easy after the first time.

I haven't ever kept up with reading your posts here, or the links, but I have seen your videos: Fun to see a more tactical viewpoint than the standard lets plays out there. The Ust Natha stuff in particular was great.

Well, how about this for a show of the potential power of, albeit not "common" rogue, but an assassin-cleric dual, 1064 damage in one hit:

Armor of Faith improves with caster level is what was probably meant by it being less good at lower levels. Unless you use the Spell Revisions mod, which sets it to 20%.

Every time Viconia joins, your reputation is lowered by 2 points. So another method is constatly dropping her off the team and then letting her rejoin.
Doesn't reputation go up by 2 points when you drop her too, though?

Try the Level 1 NPCs mod from gibberlings 3: G3: Level 1 NPCs

One component in particular will probably be what you want, and gives you 2 options:

Joinable NPCs more closely match the PC's experience - Optional

1. On initial joining only
2. On initial joining and rejoining

Actually, out of all those mods, it almost certainly is "SCSII"; although not per se exactly.

SCS now comes with a .exe modification called 'ToBEx' (look it up on spellhold studios), that adds a lot of cool features and makes previously impossible things possible.

One of the features of it is ...

Well, here's something that mentions line assertion failure:

BioWare Forums: Can't load ToB. Assertion failure: Hd0GMosc.bif.

If that does not work, my best advice is to browse around the forums/google the problem, while you wait for a response from someone who knows better.

SCSII has such a component.

I'm not sure if the bug is totally the fault of how the mod handles this, as I've had duplicate items before through other scenarios (mostly involving containers, e.g. bag of holding...but you wouldn't have that yet).

Still, best place would be to put in a report there ...

The Cleric/Ranger multiclass is an 'unfixable' bug.

See the fixpack documentation at gibberlings3 for clarification. It CAN be changed, but then it ruins the other cleric/xx combinations, which is seen (rightly so) as a bigger issue. So it stays as it is.

They apparently do not get "extra" HLAs ...

Ok, here goes.

First of all, the usual questions:

-Have you installed ToB?
-Have you patched ToB? (only apply patch 26498, not 26499, and no need to patch SoA first)
-Have you installed any sort of third party fixes? (e.g. fixpack, baldurdash, etc.)
-Have you installed any other mods?

A good one I read about elsewhere is having two or more mages that are protected from fire (preferably immune, actually), and have them prepare a minor sequencer with 2 aganzar's scorchers (or a spell sequencer, which allows up to 3 of these) and have them cast these on each other.

Now you can have ...

SoA only refers to the fact that there is no content in the form of dialogues for that character in ToB, as already mentioned.
