Another good thing about special abilities is that you get them at certain points in the game, not at certain levels. I am running my character through a third time, and his six minor heals are quite nice.

Does'nt the protangist(sp?) get vampire touch near the end of the game? [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] I seem to remember getting that spell.

You normally get one power on every chapter after taking a rest. The number of rests to get a new power seems to be more or less random.

My party has no healing skills apart from the special ability and very limited space to carry potions, so I couldn't manage wiyhout those precious Heal Wounds. Sleep and Heal - Sleep and Heal.... such is life when your short-handed.

Additionally there are some places you'd be crazy to go and not appreciate slow poison, such as cloakwood, if you get ambushed between area's without your cleric being fully rested and all his spells ready... well, I feel for you.

additionally the cure wounds spells let your clerics learn spells like "bless" or "curse" by which battles are won, 1 + at a time and can save your T/M from constant spell disruption, or other bad effects on your thief skills

Had no need for slow poison in Cloackwood.

Actually I cleared everything including the mine with a fatigue (nevermind poor spelling) party. The NPC's constantly complained about being tired. Just couldn't be bothered to let them rest.
