I bought the 'ultimate collection' of Icewind Dale (1, 2 and HoW) quite a few years ago yet I never really gave it an honest spin, despite knowing BG2 inside out. After trying to trudge my way through the NWN2 OC a second time (I finished MotB with a new character shortly before) but realizing I just wasn't masochistic enough to finish the OC I began to long for the Infinity Engine and remembered Icewind Dale.
I installed IWD 1 with HoW and Trials of the Luremaster and started making a party. After realizing that conjurers no longer have divination as a forbidden school I realized that maybe I should read up on things on Gamefaqs, so that I don't miss any other important things. All well and good except the guide said that:
Any tips on how to maximize my enjoyment of IWD 1 (and 2, which will come later)?

Does he have a point or should I just play? And why on earth would I lose out on items?I would advise against people installing the expansion pack before completing the main game however, as there are some good items that they will be unable to obtain, and the gaming experience is different.
