    Cast a fireball on the water temple snakes and you'll see. A floating line will show that says Quenched or something like that.

    The Helm Of Midnight is way underpriced, being worth something like 9 gold at a high appraisal skill.

    Well, that's how it's set up to work there. The problem is, I can't replicate that use of it. Plus, it says that it extinguishes nonmagical fires only. What's the use?

    Cast it on your thief and open the fire temple chest without disabling the trap.

    Quench doesn't generally work like that.
    The spell scripts for fire spells have just been altered to fizzle in the Water Temple Pool Chamber (as per the module, more or less), with a particle effect + floating message.

    Fixed. The Robes of Midnight were also way overvalued, so they've been reduced dramatically.

    Gentle Repose makes a dead body not decay and stay where it died so you can come back to it later.

    Yup: the main use in ToEE being Romag's "kill these guys and plant stuff on them" quest. Note you have to cast Gentle Repose before they're dead: painful but unavoidable.

    Another use is if you meet someone like the Viscount of Verbobonc and think, "boy I'd like to cream his corn but he might be plot-critical..." Beat him down, cast Gentle Repose before you coup de grace, and the corpse will always be there if you need to revivify.
    +2 Keen, Chaotic. Overpowered, like its cousin, the Blade of Spite: both removed for balance reasons. The Blade of Tension remains, but in the Yeomanry.

    I have a few more bugs to add:

    8) There is a loose stone pellet on the floor in the tower at the temple where Lareth's friends attempt an ambush.

    9) In the spell listing for wizards, the description for Acid Fog says 'Acid Fog in spell.mes'.
