    Ring of Wizardy is very nice - bonus 7th and 8th level spells. The robe gives only 5AC. About the staff... I don't know - when I tried to make it one of the students died.

    You can skip the last thing because if you tell them to make something at least one of the will blow up, and they usually take someone with them.

    I always try to get the tobe - it is outstanding, offering the best protectiion of all mage robes in BG-2. Perfect for mage-thieves. Only drawback is the orange :D

    I always avoid making anything. If you choose the Robe of Apprenti, Larz (the bitter young man with black hair and issues with his family) will die. Choose the Ring of Wizardry and Nara and Larz will die. The Staff of Power requires that all of your apprentices be alive, and upon success OR failure they will all die. If you end the quest having all of them alive however, you get 50,000xp which is very nice. Also, Morul (the rich guy) will come back and make you five potions weekly if he survived. These are wonderful, but be careful as a cursed potion makes it's way into the bunch ever now and again. The guy's just a beginner at the whole potions thing, so give him a break ;)

    When you get 50'000 exp, is it for each character or split between the party?

    Ring of wizardry can be found somewhere else in the game too and you can only have 1 per character. I thought the robe gives you AC3, not 5 could be wrong though.
