Neverwinter Vault covers yesterday's forum highlights from Bioware's Rob Bartel on weapon finesse, difficulty classes, moving between modules and the number of spells in Neverwinter Nights.

Just to clarify, the initial release of Neverwinter Nights will have approximately 200 spells in total. This is less than the 300 available in BG2 but more than the approximately 125 available in BG1 (that number's coming off the top of my head but it sounds about right). Also, don't forget that the 3rd Edition rules allow you to modify your spells through the use of Metamagic Feats - This will add a lot of variety to an already robust system, I assure you. Even so, should Neverwinter warrant a sequel, further spells will be included at that time.
