Fighter Mage Cleric solo try

*Warning! There may be spoilers...*
One of my games with Aerie, I realized that she is the most "powerful" char in game. Even Edvin is not close to her greatness. At the end of BGII_ToB, she killed Melissan (and all of her minions) in seconds with only using one spell; "Holy Smite". She was wearing "amulet of power" and "robe of vecna". Holy Smite spell has a casting time of 3, so with vocalize and robe of vecna (decreases the spell casting time -4) she casts all his spell repertoire in an instant. At Cleric level20 you can see a damage of 20-80 per each holy smite with an area of 20 foot radius. with proper potions and wish spell, Aerie can hurl about 12 holy smite spell in a turn which makes an areal damage of 240-960 damage (if they save vs spell than 120-480). I was very surprised when i saw her destroy every evil-being on sight.
So i decided to make a char, stronger than Aerie.
I always wanted to make a solo run in BG2. I did it in BG1, IWD1 & IWD2. With the same character in all games. Her name is Arachna. She is an exiled half drow - half human (Half-elf).
I've finished my solo play with her in BG1. It was an exiting game. At the begining of the game i tried so hard to make a good roll for extraordinary stats. I wanted to have more than 90 total, about 3 hours of rolling i found these;
Arachna, Half-Elf, Chaotic Evil, Female
Str: 18/50
Dex: 17
Con: 18
Int: 18
Wis: 14
Cha: 11
TOTAL: 96 (She is a godchild you know)
She is a Fighter/Mage/Cleric. She is exiled. She lived a hard life in Underdark, and escaped. So i made her chaotic EVIL!. And it was my mistake at the start of the game. I realized that mistake at the very end of BG1. I was wanting to cast "holy smite" in BG2, but it is only for good clerics! Instead of that i have Unholy Blight! I dont want to cheat the game so i continued my journey with Evil alignment.
First levels in BG1 is a real headache, but after her Thac0 gets lower and kill Basilius and get his warhammer everything changed in a good way. I was always using wand of summoning, with lots of summons around my enemies it was a little bit easy to kill even Sarevok himself. Enough for BG1 adventure. Here is my ending stats:
Str: 19
Dex: 18
Con: 19
Int: 19
Wis: 17
Cha: 12
The main reason of making this char is, casting spells in an instant. With "amulet of power" and "robe of vecna" and lots of cleric-mage spells, she can hack the hell out her way. I wanted her to change "chaotic good" at the end of the game, because i need that "Holy Smite" spell. I hope i can do that..
For weapon proficiencies;
War Hammer + (She has a long way to Crom Faer)
Flail ++ (of ages)
Mace ++ (of disruption)
Sling ++ (of Everard)
After Irenicus finished his torture, Imoen came, i remove her, rescue Minsc & Jaheira and remove them too. After clearing my way to second dungeon level, i removed Joshimo from party, cleared the area, and go to the exit..
to be continued..
