Looking for Mod Recommendations for BG2EE, mainly TOB section
I was referring to Scales of Balance and random tweaks, if you're not familiar. SoB, I haven't used in awhile; random tweaks includes some nice quality of life stuff I like (goodberries, cure spells bypass deflection, etc).

Mod overview: Tweaks, convenience mods, quality of life, and other minor enhancements
Scales of Balance: A very large mod with potentially far-reaching changes that I have not tested nearly enough to comment on in detail. Includes an armor overhaul, a feat system, major changes to weapon usability, minor tweaks to Icewind Dale items, removal of class-based potion restrictions, overhauls to racial stat bonuses, changes to saving throws, bonus spells for high int/wis/cha, a complete rework of magic resistance, and much more besides. The readme is extremely thorough: read it first to avoid compatibility issues.

And Garrick takes all the credit
It's part of a mod called Scales of Balance. It's got a lot of other changes too, but I just stuck with the ability score based bonus spells component and ignored the rest as the other stuff changed way too much for me. It does also grant mages bonus spells based on intelligence which could potentially be a bit OP with the extra slots a specialist mage already has.

Are there any mods that make mental attributes more relevant?

Godlike (?)
Most stats don't really matter especially in an unmodded game. There are mods to make them more significant. The one I use is Scales of Balance, which contains a crap ton of tweaks and is very granular so you can just install what you want.

Refinements HLAs seem great -any opinions?
Although I've always used 'BG2-ToB Refinements' mod (its fork is found here), I've never considered the meta or analysis of the HLAs.

Mod overview: Tweaks, convenience mods, quality of life, and other minor enhancements
Refinements: HLA overhaul, originally with the intent of better differentiating each class’ HLAs. I haven’t touched this in years – if anyone has some up to date comments on how it works and if you’d recommend it, I’ll edit this accordingly.

Baldur's Gate casual here - Why don't Paladins have an aura?
The current Refinements mod apparently works on EE??
