Paladin Save bonus

[Chaos10Ox]

Like the title says, do paladins really get a bonus to spells?It shows up on their character sheet but in the CLABPA01 to 04 files i see no spell that gives them this ability.Does anyone know how it's done?

I believe paladins have a -2 bonus to all saving throws hardcoded into character generation and level-up.

 

They use savewar.2da as a base, then have those values reduced by 2 (to a minimum of 0). The values are saved in the .cre files, so you can load up a save game and see them.

Do you perhaps know if this is true for all the IE AD&D games?

It also applies to Baldur's Gate - Tales of the Sword Coast.

[Green Knight]

They do get the 2 point save bonus in IWD (on top of warrior base saves).

Thanks, that's all then, at least as far as player characters go (no paladins in pst).
