    I my caracter information screen, the most powerfull monster killed is Bodhi (I play solo and I did almost all quest, including Kangaxx and Shangalar&co). It's somehow weird, because there are lots of reasons that Kangaxx is better: require +4 weapons to hit (+3 Bodhi, I think), is immune to lots of spells, he is a powerfull spellcaster. Against a caracter with Amulet of Power, Bodhi doesn't matter.
    What do you think?

    I had less problems with Bodhi. She isn't to powerfull and I can kill her a regular way, for Kangaxx I really need the protection-from-magic scroll.

    The most powerfull creature you killed depends not on how hard it was to kill it but how many exp you get. Kangaxx is around 50,000 exp points IIRC and Bodhi is 91.000

    And to Garathorn: there are much usefull tactics on how to kill Kangaxx, I advice you use the search option and try some of them.

    Silverblade ---> that's nonsense, XP says nothing about who's the toughest enemy. How tough a fight is depends also on what tactics you use, if you play with fighters or with sorcerers..... etc.

    i think SilverBlade was referring to the Information part under a Characters info... where you can see how many kills he has made, how much XP he has contributed to the party.... that place also shows the most powerful creature you have slained

    There is the creature that has the highest XP but that don't say anything about hard the fight was. It also depends on at what level you encountered the enemy etc.

    Kangaxx is definetly more powerful. Bodhi is a piece of cake... imho

    Another question: WHat is the hardest party you had ever to deal with?

    I say the one in the Temple Sewers.

    Drizzt's party, probably. He *alone* could whack the folks in the sewers.

    bodhi is only worth more experience because she gives u quest experience as part of the story instead of a side quest

    Sorry Headbanger I did mean the info in the character screen, I probably should have said it in a different way. But I agree with you, I had Bodhi down in no time and had to put some more effort in killing Kangaxx, so it is a little strange that Bodhi is my most powerfull kill, according to the character screen.

    For some reason I have trouble with the cowled mage Tolgarus(sp?) in the planar sphere. I dislike running and waiting for the protection spells to wear off and I don't do scrolls.

    [​IMG] Some very powerfull parties, especially for a solo mage/thief like me, were the demon knights from Kua-Tuan dungeon from Underdark, the demons from the Planar Sphere quest and Irenicus as Slayer, after I finished the spells. The last one regenerates too quickly for me to do enough damage to him.
    Shangalar and his minions were piece of cake, if you take them one by one; party from the sewers were a group of pathetic mobile targets, without mages (Oh, I love backstab). The same thing was in the Guarded Compound: Skull Trap against mages=no mages and then backstab again and again.
    I think there are lots of enemy who are individually a lot stronger than Bodhi. Tolgerias, Sarewolk, the dragons, liches, there are only some I could think now.
    IMHO, the vampires are very weak against someone who has imunity to level drain (Amulet of Power...).

    It seems that the topic become "who is the most powerfull enemy in the game", and here I think Kangaxx demi-lich is NO 1.

    If you have a good cleric then Bodhi is a piece of cake (with False Dawn, Sunray, and Bolt of Glory). The problem is, that the game usually takes away your cleric just before the confrontation with Bodhi. Why? Because your cleric is usually your romance (Aerie = cleric/mage, Jaheira = fighter/druid, Viconia = cleric, Anomen = fighter/cleric. The ONLY clerics in the game, if you are not one yourself.) Did they make it that way purposefully, to make your fight with Bodhi a bit harder?
