Give him your extra wands and scrolls. Otherwise use him as an identify source.

With big fisted belt he can be melee, with gloves of dex he can be ranged but as with all bards in BG1 he's best used as a platform to use up all your extra consumables while identifying stuff for free.

I tend to use him only if I want Skie in the party for roleplay reasons. I tend not to kill him off unless it happens "naturally" but if you set him up to be a melee with a strength item (gauntlets of ogre power perhaps) he tends to die anyway as he's a bit fragile for that. Just lie to Skie that he can't be raised because reasons.
