If you are going to import your character from your final save in BG2 you wont get any of your nice goodies from hell (the immunity to +1 weapons and such) as your final save is just before that, and if you were not supposed to use it for games after BG2 etc why put it in as you get it just b4 irenicus so it gets used in 1 battle where no weapons below +1 were used????

Because if you just replay the final battle then after the ending you will carry straight on in to the expansion WITH your powers from the tears.

2. If you use a final save from BG2 that was saved BEFORE you install the TOB expansion, your character will have all those neato Bhaal bonus thingies that you got right at the end. If you beat BG2 after the expansion is installed you will not have said powers. Why?
That isn't quite right. If you import from the BG2 final save, you will not have those extra powers you get at the end, because you actually get those powers after it makes the final save. However, if you load the final save and replay the end fight, and keep playing straight into the expansion you will keep the bonuses.
The bonuses aren't touched at all by the expansion. If you don't have them in the save you import, we don't add them for you. If you play through the end and get the bonuses, we don't remove them.
