Polymorph Other bug?

I recently downloaded the game and started playing. I have to tell that there are several new cool effects, like the AOE spells are much more enjoyable in the enhanced game.

However, I'm a role playing guy and enjoy many "wizard-typical" spells, even if they might be somewhat bad in the game I use'em for the lore.

One such spell is "Polymorph Other". In the vanilla Baldur's Gate 2 this spell had an awful save and it almost never succeded. In the enhanced version, if the spell succeed, this spell actually lower/damage the target to 1 HP (meaning an easy kill) as per the "Flesh to Stone" spell.

To me, this actually makes sense, since killing a squirrel shouldn't be any problem. However, I belive that's not the intention with the spell. Also, the animatics in the actual transformation into a squirrel is somewhat... Lacking. Not the usual "polymorph" animatics as it was used to be.

I'm thankful for any thoughts about this issue!

Cheeers!
