Crazy Mage
Export Trick
*** Ring of Wizardry ***

Another ring of wizardry can be found in the city of Baldur's Gate. It is on a mage on the same map as the Flaming Fist headquarters in a house in the southwest corner. Be prepared for a tough fight when you enter, but the reward is worth it!

*** Ring of Fire Resistance ***

*** Scroll of Cloudkill and Chromatic orb ***

*** Gauntlets of Weapon Skill ***
Map: Near the Umberlee Temple in Baldur's Gate city (in a crate)
*** Cloak of Protection +2 ***
Map: Candlekeep Crypt, Southwest of the empty room
*** Ioun Stone of Luck (joke) ***
Map: 1 map west of Nashkell
How to get it: Kill the squirrel on one map to the west of Nashkel. (Kill every squirrel you meet, one of them will be carrying it.)
Effect: +1 Luck
*** Algernon's Cloak ***
Map: Beregost, Feldepost Inn, first floor.
How to get it: Pickpocket the fat guy. Yes, his name is Algernon.
Effect: It will give you +2 Charisma if you wear it, but it also gives you a special ability. You can charm anyone at any time by clicking on the special abilities button and then on the cloak. Especially early in the game, when you don't have the charm spell yet, you will be able to make good use of it. You can use the charm spell on enemies (some have resistance) and they'll fight on your side then for a while. Especially when fighting those annoying sirenes at the lighthouse area, the charm spell is very useful, simply cast it on on of the carrion crawlers by the coast and you can let them attack the sirenes.
They won't cast invisibility nor try to charm any of your party members if you keep distance. Even if you have the charm spell already, this cloak will help you out too. Beware: When you use charm on someone, you're sometimes not able to talk to a neutral person in a game. There is no way to remedy this, so talk first, charm later.
