I just realized this character doesn't really make all that much sense... if I'm not mistaken, according to the book '''Crucible: The Trial of Cyric the Mad','' in 1358 DR when Kelemvor ascended to Godhood didn't he get rid of the Wall of the Faithless only to be forced to reinstate it by the 'Council of Greater Gods' which included all of the Greater Gods on Toril with the exception of Mystra who was also deemed guilty of ''Incompetence by Humanity'' (for favoring good spellcasters in the use of magic)?'' ''Wouldn't this make the only one who could ever actually get rid of The Wall Ao the Overgod?

This all took place roughly 16 years before the start of the game, which in the Realms where there are so many ancient entities may as well have been yesterday. This should have been in all of the character's lifetime during the game, and Kaelyn was supposed to have been one of Kelemvor's Doomguides no less.

It seems like somebody should've pointed this out somewhere at some point (in development, in game, etc), it's a pretty huge part of Kelemvor's backstory and with his ties to Mystra and Cyric he is one of the most written on and familiar Gods in the Realms.

It also states that the bonus flurry of blows attacks come at a dismally low attack bonus on the offhand. It would be great to resolve this contradiction, since the effectiveness of dual kamas is going to be far, far less than advertised if it is true that greater flurry gives the offhand only two extremely weak attacks.

It says "it is possible to get up to 18 attacks with perfect two weapon fighting and greater flurry," which means 9 per hand, which implies that the bug giving an extra attack with flurry carries to the offhand. It also specifically states that the extra attack bug does NOT carry to the offhand. Anyone know which is correct?

Does anyone know for certain exactly how mage armor and/or improved mage armor stack with worn armor? I seem to remember that once upon a time improved mage armor was pointless if the total AC from worn armor was already 6 or more. However, according to the in-game display, mage armor spells now essentially replace the armor enhancement, but will still stack with base armor. If this is indeed true, then improved mage armor is arguably broken at lower levels, and is only totally irrelevant once into epic content. Anyone know for sure?

	* Because Clerics have certain proficiencies and their domains grant certain abilities, they can gain access to class abilities they otherwise would not get under normal conditions. This also makes them very ideal to use for cross-classing. For example, a [[Bard]] 29/[[Cleric]] 1 with [[Water (domain)]] and [[War]] gain access to [[Evasion]], Heavy Armor Proficiency, a [[Weapon Focus]] and a weapon proficiency. With evasion, a Bard can make better use of their [[Reflex]] save and get [[Expose Weakness]] at epic levels. With the Battle Caster feat a Bard can put their medium armor proficiency to good use. Finally, by selecting War domain and a deity with a martial weapon as a favored weapon, the Bard gains a free martial weapon proficiency which allows them to use a wider selection of weapons.		* Because Clerics have certain proficiencies and their domains grant certain abilities, they can gain access to class abilities they otherwise would not get under normal conditions.

Plant gives barkskin for natural armor up to +5, Earth gives stoneskin for damage resist 10/adamantium, and Time gives both premonition 30/adamantium damage resist and access to haste. Multiclass characters with a few levels of cleric spells and full clerics can both draw huge benefits from bonus spells, though knowing exactly how high cleric spell levels are going to go is important for making good use of domain spells.

BAB and weapon enhancements increase, but so do defensive AC buffs,equipment enhancements, class-based armor buffs and etc... unless someone is hitting on 2-20 or only 20, +1 is still a 1/20 greater chance of a hit, and if it has less of a relative impact on a first-attack, it still has a significant impact on a last attack chance. Besides, at high levels Bless lasts long enough to throw on casually between fights rather than wasting time on a cast when a dangerous battle has begun, arguably making it significantly more useful tactically.

BAB = level is already crazy, but persistant divine favor on top (even persistant prayer if one feels so inclined) is like having better BAB than a fighter with one casting; yet another +2ab and self-haste is available with battletide (oh and it screws up enemy stats also). Then there are the most exploitable domain spells - haste (persistant), premonition, barkskin - that give a fighting cleric three of the best long-term utilities that other classes should be holding over them to balance the crazyness that is Divine Favor. I won't even start about monkey-gripping Stormlord/Clerics...
