Cleric Ability

Gamer asks if the new 3rd Edition rules for clerics will apply:

Is the cleric ability of swapping memorized spells for healing going to make it into NWN? For anyone who hasn’t tried 3rd Ed yet, this makes a HUGE difference to the class, since it finally allows clerics to learn spells other than cures without being lynched by the rest of the party.

According to the current plans, it’s in. The programmers have already integrated it into the radial menu but it won’t actually be functional until the spell system as a whole becomes a little more firmly implemented.

You’re right, though – spontaneous casting for clerics is one of my favorite features of the 3rd Edition rules. It makes the class a lot more fun to play and allows for a lot more variation in playstyle.
