    Edwin's Amulet is IMO the most unbalanced, but I still like it. :o

    Keldorn sword is annoying since it practically forces you to deal with the Cowled Wizards.

    Nalia's ring is a pretty nice combo item. Too bad that she's also part of the combo.

    Boo :roll: You have to love that little rat (hamster). Edwins amulet is also cool, tried taking it off of him once, and unfortunately he wasn't too happy about it :(

    Has to be a toss up between Nalias ring and Edwins amulet as i think they're the most useful things. If only there was a way of getting them both for yourself MWUHAHAHAHA :evil: :D :evil:

    Hey, I'd love to have Imoen kitted out in the full set of Jansen Adventure Wear, with all accessories!

    I knew Boo would get a lot of votes, so I just couldn't omit him. ;)

    [​IMG] If only Imoen had the belt in BG1 :rolleyes:

    It says she can't remove it and she doesn't know how she got it - so in theory she *should* have had it :hmm:

    nm

    I voted Boo btw :thumb:

    I honestly don't understand the popularity of Boo. He makes for one less quick item slot, and all he does is squeek, which is funny exactly one time. They should let you eat him or something after his dialogue is exhausted.

    [​IMG] Boo as cute as he is, doesn't really help does he? But why is he so popular. I almost voted for, but decided to choose between the useful items, does this make me bad? :confused:

    I liked Haer'dalis so I went with Chaos, although Entropy is really part of the deal too. You don't have one without the other.

    I am appearently the only one who has chosen Valygar's katana. For some reason I just like it. Too bad it's only +2
