Calagari,
I also found the final battles lacked real challenge (this is after finishing BG2 with the Tactics Mod installed).

If you want to up the difficulty, try playing with a smaller party. A half-elf cleric/ranger, and an elf fighter/mage/thief should cover all the basics.

If you're really up for a challenge, try soloing the game, and play on a harder difficulty level without Max HP.

If you're totally masochistic, you can try the harder difficulty settings with non-fighter characters, like a pure druid, mage, or thief. I played for a while with a solo halfling thief (I liked the paper doll), and actually made it pretty far before starting over as something else.

I think the random treasures give the game a replay value beyond that of the BG series, though it would be cool if they also had some way of implementing random trap locations.
