been to Bela and crapped when you say how much for the Cloak of many colors? or the dread spear...or with ferro and the infinity helm? have i got a cure for you...Ok, bare with me here, its worth it. This is my second party (refined from my first run through the game)Female Felpur Samari

First off, when you have ANY money, buy light (around 170 to 80 gold depending on communication skill and person who likes you) and mod heal (300-200g)potions, cure light condition (300 - 150g) and when you get flush, heavy heal (800-550)and cure disease (2000- 1200)...ok, my magic people i started as male psionic and female alchemist....build alch. so skill in alchemy is 15...used her to make heavy heal out of light and mod heals...it brings alchemy skill up...then when skill is at 40 merge hv. heal and cure lt. con....it makes a cure disease...then at skill 50 merge hv. heal with cure disease and you get your cash cow...Renewal potions. if you are anwhere in the game in arnika, you see how much they are worth...upwards to 5000 a pop. so even if you buy a heavy heal at 800 and a cure disease at 2000, your still making 1200 out of it...use identify on the cure disease and renewal (it takes a high artifacts to look at them and you will bring up your psionics or mental skills up fast too!!!
enjoy!
p.s. 6 cloaks of many colors, 3 robes of rejuv and 3 infinity helm, oh and 6 sets of snakeskin boots help alot!
