I want to keep her in my party for plot and stroy reasons.

But she Freakin sucks.

She has no offence what-so-ever. At least in all the other d&d games, clerics could hold thier own in battle. She does like 1-3 damage. Does she ever get some good spells, besides healing.

I find healing spells to be pretty dumb anyways.
TNO, Ignus, and Dakon (with +2 con tat) all regenerate. Plus you find plenty of charms for morte.

I really want to keep her, help!

Well, she is good for healing, and her Spiritual Hammer spell (different from BGI & BGII) is a good ranged, offensive spell. After playing through the first time with her, I just pick her up to discuss each party member, esp. Morte, then drop her. If you ask the right question about Morte, it opens a new dialogue option with him which leads to a power-up (boost to STR, DEX, and CON).

I used her for cannon fodder for the most part. Heh.. Because her magic, she can heal herself quickly, but can't take the hits as fast.. Oh well, I found it fun!

:D

She has call lightning which can be fairly useful if used properly (i.e not blowing oneself to smithereens) she also has a special which does some damage, can't remember what that's called though.

I used her healing abilities and call lightning all the time :) The spell desciption of call lightning says it only works outdoors, but this is obviously wrong, I used it in several indoor areas. Just remember the lightning will strike where you target the spell, not on the creature you target if the creature is moving.

Call Lightning and Spiritual Hammer work very well in the caverns, and the first is an excellent area spell. Prayer, Protection from Evil, Curse, and Blessing are all excellent "turn-the-tide-of-battle" spells. Fall-From-Grace may not pack the obvious punch of Dak'kon or Vhailor or the flair of Annah, but she's a strong assist in battle.

I think Grace also has a couple of special "succubus" talents -- if I recall, her kiss can be quite dangerous in combat.

Yeah, but would you really wanna trade spit with a demon?

@Quitch: Both. :D

Anyway, I re-itterate my point of use for Fall-From-Grace as Cannon Fodder!

:D

@Aegis, you just don't like attractive infernal spirits who can talk up a storm. ;)
