My conjurer and his constitution.

I'm replaying the BG1 (I love this game ) and this time I made a conjurer (YEAH!!!). Then I rolled the following status:

My Char is a human, Chaotic good alignment.
Str: 10
Dex: 18
Con: 18 (now i have 19, you know, i used the tome)
Int: 18 (19 with the tome)
Wis:15 (18 with the tome) (I plan to use the spell wish in BG2)
Cha: 14: (15 with the tome and 17 with the cloak)

So I started playing , I am currently near the end of the game , I noticed that even though I have a high constitution, the bonus per level is still +2. I forgot the hitpoints bonus is only for warrior type character , if I use the Claw of Kazgaroth will correct my mistake ? (You know, -2 con but AC bonus and saving throws).


sorry my horrible english.

    Only Paladins, Rangers and Fighters get bonuses for having Con over 16. So your 3 points of Con are kinda wasted.

    That said...with the claw of Kazgaroth you get the perks without any downside, which is nice.

    Your familiar can die 3 times before you feel any penalty.

    In BG2 there are ways to get another point of Constitution. When you hit Con 20, you start regenerating naturally.

    @Grum Sorry my question friend but, The familiars are really essentials for a mage? The game will be more difficult without a familiar?

    They're basically an permanent item you will have in your inventory to get HP bonus, except for some few uses (as familiars with pickpocket for example).

    No they aren't essential. You can get through the game just fine without one.
