I just recently got Vhailor and his strength is listed as 18/51.  What does that mean?  Does he have a chance to critically hit with 51 strength?  Does the 51 come out when he's berserked?  Am I missing something?

There is two tables that should clear things up for you, T1, and T2, the final bonus on 18/xy is calculated as T1(18)+T2(xy)=bonus... the tables are from BG2 by the way.

Thanks, but I think I'm more confused now. Assuming I sorta kinda understand, that 51 isn't making a whole lot of difference. The reason I'm wondering is because I used Near Infinity to up Vhailor's strength to 19 for the special super bonus (I figure because they don't let you give him tattoos, it's justified), and the 51 disappeared when I did that.

Yeah, but if you look at the table and do the math, you'll see that the 19 is better than 18/(1)00... just slitely, so the second number isn't counted anymore with the 19 or above numbers...
