A couple possibly old bugs found

Madhax

I haven't played BGEE in several months, but I thought these were fixed/changed at some point since release:

a) Neera's staff still doesn't work correctly. It occasionally shows flame bursts, but it never deals damage to either her or her targets.
b) Sleep is still an auto-win against early-game enemies, as is Command. Aren't enemies supposed to wake up if they take a hit while sleeping? I just facerolled the Nashkel Mines, knocking over kobolds by the dozen. I could try limiting my use of it, but my PC is a Dragon Disciple with it as one of his level 1 spells, so it's one of his only tricks.

I think sleep is meant to be like that. The 'wake up on hit' thing was only a suggestion on the Feature Requests IIRC.

Madhax

It's not consistent with how the spell works in Icewind Dale, but then again there are plenty of mechanical differences between the two games. I could have sworn enemies woke up in the original, though.

Nah it didn't though logically they should.

@Madhax I can't say anything about Sleep in the original Baldur's Gate, since I never played a mage character in it, but the way Sleep works in BGEE is normal according the spell's description. The target(s) makes a save vs. Death with a -3(?) penalty, and on a failure, fall asleep and stay asleep for x amount of turns (where x = the caster's level multiplied by 5). I think there was something to do with the amount of hit dice, but I can't recall it off the top of my head. Or maybe that was in reference to another spell.
