+1 Wisdom from Hell - End of SoA.
+1 Wisdom from Lum's - Watcher's Keep: Level 4.
+1 Wisdom from The Deck of Many things (this one is very tricky) - Watcher's Keep: Between Level 3 and 4.

Talking about wisdom.
The higher the wisdom the higher magic defence you will get, do you know how this works because I got 22 wisdom, import from BG1 and the magic damage is still all the same.

Thanks for your help all.

They didn't put in magic defense from wisdom

There are many thing in the manual that never got implemented, save bonus from wisdom is one of them. They also never implement most of the racial bonuses.

Wisdom improves not all saving throws, only mind affecting,like confusion, charm, feeblemind, horror. That is it. Even Stun is not mind affecting spell.

Of course that special bility from deco of many things, permament mind shield will help with that. Never need wisdom then. Sucks though that they missd out so many things thats in the rules.

Oh a question, at which wisdomlevel will one start getting bonus level 7 spells?

Never. It never really reaches lvl 6 or 7 spells IIRC, just ALOT of lower level spells.
