Two things: Bards do not get Musical Instrument Proficiency from Alfira as they already have all musical instrument proficiencies from the class BUT WILL LOSE THE PROFICIENCY WHEN THEY SWAP CLASSES, So make sure whoever helps Alfira is not a Bard and never becomes one. Regarding Auntie Ethel's Hair, it ALSO breaks the Oath of the Ancients (as Hags are Aberrations by the laws of nature) So it's probably better for the dialogue to just... not be done by a Paladin at all, since her hair is an item, not a dialogue-specific effect.

You missed the part with the Tharciate Codex where if you have the person who read the Necromancy of Thay from Act 1 read the codex, you also get a once per long rest summon that summons 4 ghouls to fight as allies (not under your control). Also on the Mirror of Loss, you can also get a permanent +1 to Charisma on top of the +2. After choosing a memory to sacrifice, you'll get a dialogue saying "Disappointment floods your mind. You were sure to succeed Stelmane, but Lord Enver Gortash has stolen your support. All that charming and cajoling in the parlous of the Upper City, Wasted". This one gives you +1 to Charisma and doesn't "satisfy" the mirror (lock you out from sacrificing another memory to try again) like the +2 bonus does

As someone else said, you can get a +1 charisma buff from the mirror as well as the +2. The way you do it is before you pass the religion check you select all of the options until you get it. it’s random you can get it on any of them, it’s important to do it before you pass the religion check because that is the only way to get both. You can take any buff for the +2, even charisma to get three total. The only thing you need to make sure is that you have at least one left for your +2, because once you do one, you can’t do it again for that character. You’ll get a bunch of debuffs, but they’re just regular curses. I forget what the text is for the charisma buff but it’s always the same. You can do this with every character. I only had to save scum for one character I’m pretty sure.

So with potion of bloodlust + haste that's 3 actions a turn. It's also important that with Ethel hair + mirror of loss you can get to 22 of any stat by only using 1 feat.

Even on a monk, with tarven brawler that would add +2 with the extra bonus.

Note that if you play as Gale, the Mystra's Blessing doesn't happen at all in Balthazar's room. Also, regarding the Shadow Weave level 3 spell slot, Gale only gets one slot, not one for every Thorm killed/absorbed so it's really only mildly useful because it's only one level 3 spell slot AND refreshes on Long Rest so it's not great by any means so I wouldn't go thinking it'll unlock some brand new build potential.

Wow, didn't thought i would be able to add anything. Actually, you haven't mention infinite Laughter skill from mad monk. İt's quite powerful and can be used by any class without spell slot, once per battle. İ would consider it as a permanent buff. Amulet can be taken in Grym forge and should be taken to the Temple in Revington. İ see the logic, you haven't mention skills you might take, but such is worth to mention as well or take it as an idea for separate video

#8-- you don't need to sacrifice anyone. Just have astarion move around to the back of him while you're engaged in the initial convo and pickpocket the weapon off him, then move astarion far away near the exit and offer to kill in his name and you all get the buff instead of the weapon he was going to give you.

The mirror allows not only a +2 in an ability but also a +1cha if you get the right text upon sacrificing a memory, so you can get +3 ability points in total from it. Happened for me when I sacrificed constitution, nor sure if its always constitution though?

Don't know if anyone's said this, couldn't find comments on it, but: The Mirror of Loss that grants you +2 permanently to an ability of your choosing can also be done with the help of the Necromancy of Thay. Now, I don't know if you need to have fully read the Necromancy or just the first part (since I had fully read it both times I did this), but you can sacrifice your knowledge of the book to skip all of the ability checks and go straight to picking a memory to gain! (You do not lose the ability to summon the Ghouls by doing this, I never really checked but I assume it removes your ability to Speak with Dead or Forbidden Knowledge, probably the latter)

You can get Auntie Ethel's hair AND still kill her for the XP afterwards. It's tricky, but you have to leave one character out of the end-battle-triggering bargaining with her. Then switch over to that character, and move them within combat range, killing her before she can escape. (Google or check the wiki for more details.)

Awakened buff - Rather than just relying on save scumming ... For anyone who isn't Lae'zel it's a series of saving throws (the buff is best on whoever is going to be using the ilithid powers that would otherwise take an action the most). You can enhance these with things like bless (1D4) and the resistance cantrip (1D4). Elixir of heroism can apply the bless buff. Also, the heal ring can do it (so you can throw a potion at the main character to give them bless for the bonus without using a spell slot then step into the machine to begin the process). There is an early act 1 shield that gives +1 to all saving throws. I don't remember what the first is. The second is wisdom. The third can be any of the mental attributes. For Lae'zel these are ability checks. The second level spell enhance ability gives advantage on any one attribute type. The buff does nothing for powers that trigger without using an action. Most of the powers that take up an action aren't terribly good, so making them a bonus action is an improvement, but these still aren't often great. Obviously, more value on a thief rogue with more bonus actions. It's more fun to use the inspiration dice to reroll fails and go into the event prepared, than to abuse the save system to never fail (there's no skill in that). Good luck!

I'd known Forbidden Knowledge gave you Speak with the Dead, but I didn't know it also gave the wisdom buff. that will come in very handy for my monk. If you want to make things a bit easier and can wait, the Harpers Amulet you can get at the start of act 2 grants advantage on Wisdom checks.
