I finally have my Paladin at level 9 and he can cast spells.

But is there no wisdom spell bonus as there is for Clerics/Druids!?

Why not? They are from the same spell pool right?

This question would apply to Rangers as well but with Minsc there is no worry of a wisdom bonus. :lol:

Wisdom doesn't have any effect on paladin and ranger spells in Baldur's gates.

Oh Darn... :(

Does that apply to low wisdom spell failure too?

I`m fairly sure that higher wisdom = more spells for Clerics, Druids *and* Paladins. :)

At least my cavalier didn't get any bonus spells, although he had WIS 16. I think that rangers and paladins don't have low wisdom spell failure (well, Minsc never failed to cast spells :rolleyes: )

No, not *and* paladins :(

High wisdom makes absolutely no class-specific difference and this sucks and sucks a lot.

My Cavallier has now 22 wisdom and has the same amount as he would if he had 13 only. So if a player is not roleplaying the protagonist or only wanted bonus spells when assigning high wisdom, he then had better spend the points on bg2 prefered arguments :(
