Between the mirror and the hag's hair, that's +3 bonus, are there any others? It seems weird that it would total to an odd number, that would leave whatever stat you combine them on (if you do combine them on the same stat) to have no benefit elevating the natural stat beyond 19.
There is a list divided per act of permanent bonuses here https://bg3.wiki/wiki/Permanent_bonuses
This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks! Looks like it is just those two (I don't count the blood, since that's only strength and it still caps at 20.)
The Potion of everlasting vigor doesn't cap at 20. You can get to 22 Str with it.
Huh, thought I'd read different, that's good to know! Thanks!
There are some ability specific ones. There is a potion you can get in act 2 that permanently increases strength by 2.
The crazy part with the mirror is that everyone in your party can benefit from it once. You can even go back to camp, swap out new companions, and they can get it as well.
The mirror also can give a +1 to Charisma before giving you a +2, but still won't exceed 22. (ie 20 CHA gets the +1 to 21, then gets the +2 but caps at 22)
Regarding the odd numbers, the hags hair you get pretty early. Depending on your starting stats and feat choices, you could reasonably have a 17 or 19 to round off. The mirror exists to help push characters past the normal limit of 20, which doesn't matter unless it is by 2.
