Curing Yakman (Watchers Keep)

I vaguely recall being able to cure Yakman of his insanity with a restoration spell back in the original game, did I dream this? It doesn't seem to work now.

    Use a Heal spell instead.

    The hostile crazy mage you un-imprison from the weird machine in the Underdark can be cured with the heal spell, as well. (Not the lich)

    Sadly, it does not seem to work on Minsc, (other than fully healing his hp) no matter how many times you may try. Nor on the poor inmates in Spellhold. It seems the damage is too old/chronic in their case and have been made permanent.

    As Tresset posted it needs to be the heal spell (level 6 Cleric spell).

    Minsc is not insane. He is ENLIGHTENED.
