Keep your monk. I'm not too big on druid's in the first place - shapeshift and spells are their two redeeming qualities, but since they can't use them simultaeneously.... pah!

Wait a minute...yes, Cernd sucks, but what's all this about giving your monk a vacation? There are no NPC monks in BG2, so I'm assuming you rolled up a monk in multiplayer mode. Are you aware that if you eliminate a self-rolled NPC from your group, there is no way to get them back?! Once a secondary NPC other than the 16 in the game are removed from the group, they are gone for good. Keep this in mind.

oh no, what I do is i save, then export my monk, then i reload, delete the monk so i have a space open. Then once im dont with the NPC i save, reload, delete Cernd, and then import my monk again. It works. But i didnt take Cernd. I went to the grove tho and i guess when i was fighting the shrooms, Cernd got hit by something, because when i went to get him for the rejoin he was red and i killed em. Needlesss to say i went to duel Faldorn with Jaheria, she was lev 9 druid 7 fighter, and i still managed to beat her, so its all good, thanx for that info tho
still truckin,

Good solution. Hadn't thought of that. As for Faldorn, both Jaheira and Cernd can beat her with ease if you shapechange.

Why take Cernd? He's not a great caster, and he's lousy in battle if he hasn't shifted shape. (When he does, he can't cast, so that's another negative.) I'd sooner take Jaheira: superior spells, she can wear plate, and when you give her a decent weapon and a couple of proficiency points, she becomes an acceptable secondary tank.
