I didn't realize my friend was going to play a Totemic druid and it is destroying the balance and fun of the first part of the game. I need a mod or something that I can safely append to the end of our install that will maybe allow the summon to scale up to its original power? Or is there anything else I can do other then to just tell him not to use it or live with how crazy easy it is.

Thanks guys.

The original game is actually not really suited as a BG1 game, as for example the Fireball spell only has 4 power levels(as it should have 6 at least), the 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th levels, so one example is if a 1st level mage is able to cast the spell, he casts it as the 7th level character, meaning that the damage is 7*(1d6), which by avarage is 24, not 3 or 4 as it should.

The BGT doesn't correct all those faults, it's too much to code to fix everyone of the spells, as one really shouldn't overwrite everything anymore, it tries some... but there are kit mods that do not and so the end result doesn't probably even depend on which of the total convertion mods you installed(the BGT, the BGT-WeiDU, the BG1Tutu, the EasyTutu or others.. and the Kit mod can be part of the Total Convertion mod, which just tells that you are totally cheesed for sure, well almost).

The mods try to get better, and they can... but the end result depends totally what mods you actually install, and on BWS game, it won't be easy to fix especially on already started game.
