Sarevok is an awesome fighter, IMO better than any other you can get in your party. And I love his Deathbringer Assault ability, a random chance to inflict massive damage to the enemy. Plus, he has some very cool reactions to party members.

In all ToB levels, you never have to worry about any of your party leaving you due to rep. They will complain, but they won't leave you. :cool:

What NPC's do u have?, because if u dont have any other cleric than Anomen, you should'nt replace him with Sarevok..
You always should have a cleric around ;)

I don't think having Aerie as your only Cleric is a good idea. Although, I love the fact that she can use cleric spell for contingency (or chain) spell. Put 'Heal' spell in it, you dont ever have to worry about her getting hurt.
Speaking of Sarevok, I'm not a big fan of him. I think Keldon, Minsk or Valygar does better job.

fallenheart, putting heal in contingency has a flaw, one i found by accident in a experiment.

i snet poor defenseless aerie off into a inc cloud, and she dies in 3 rounds...if your cleric mage takes massave damage faast, very fast, like in a really oh crap situation, they cans till die if tehy take massive damage past the 50% marker. contingency via hitpoints is nto as reliable as see enemy. try raise dead, that really seems to work.

still fooling around with spell.

btw, if you like death bringer, but dont like saraevoks personality, you can add death bringer to any char using sk.

copy the affect, only one in his cre file into the LAST line of a char. as a fun thing, my kensai cleric wildmage will sometimes do the really evil sarevok chuckle in combat, since I added deathbringer, and adding to the last line of a chars affects section also semms to increase probaility of getting one. i get a full death bringer once every 10 hits, and stun effect about a full quarter f teh time. and I dont have to put up with saravok, who is such a big downer!!!
