Game save pre export.
Other Magic skills are boosted to 300 and added at the end of the game but I am no sure if this is intentional or a bug such as magic detect is at 200 and in 4 it becomes 300 also Zap does he same as it was at 112 and becomes 300 Post import to 4. If you want a save that you can see the magic skills in just let me know.

Upon further inspection it does not seem to matter GOG or NON GOG version as loading the save and using the non GOG version of the game same issue happens Though the value written to that attribute is different but still Overly high.

Found an Save editor tool to examine what was being written to after the export of quest for glory 3 and checked my other saves and they where valid but 3 has over flows all over the place. (http://blazingstix.com/apps/qfgimporter) and upon review with this application incorrect values are written in the fallowing value fields: Experiance, as for spells all are incorrect but Open, Calm, Flamedart, Fetch, Force bolt, Levitation, Reversal are above max value.

I researched this a bit. It seems you have 53481 experience points internally. They aren't shown, but they are there. And this causes all the issues. At least that's what it looks like. When i change that to 10000 experience points, the whole character file looks fine. And the experience issue is a known bug in the character export.
Did you transfer your character from Quest For Glory 1 to QfG2, then to QfG3? Can you please check how many experience points you had at the end of QfG2? And how long did you play QfG3?

I added a script patch for this script bug. It also occurs in the original, although I'm not sure if your insanely high experience points weren't caused by some other bug. Your experience points are 53481, which is REALLY high.
The script patch will change all values to 9999 in case they are 10000 or higher, when exporting the character.
Please check how much experience points you had at the end of Quest For Glory 2.
Script patch was added in 537f33d9cf60fffdd473ae3cd32e2abffc9cb24f. The next daily build should include it. Please download and try it out. I will keep this bug report open.
The script patch applies to the official English, French, German, Italian and Spanish version of the game. I haven't tried with the version from GOG.
btw. it seems Quest for Glory 4 also has such a bug.
