    [​IMG] Hey guys!!
    Just wanted to ask: Which is your fave place in BG or TotSC??
    Mine has to be Durlag's Tower. Its got lots different, tough monsters (I couldn't kill the Dwarven Doom Guards at first, so I went and loaded up on EXP( my party was only on 4/5 levels) and returned to nail them!!), more interesting quests than the usual "go-get-my-stuff-and-I'll-give-you-10gp" types and, well, its just cool! ;)

    [​IMG] Mine'd have to be the Friendly Arms Inn. Not because there was anything to do or kill there after those little questies but because it had a nice atmosphere to it and was a sanctuary for my party throughout the whole game. Rain, thunder, lightning outside, but every time I returned to the Friendly Arms Inn I knew I'd be safe for the night.
    Plus Bentley serves a mighty nice mug of Luskan ale! ;)

    Mine would have to be the grave where Minsc, Khalid and Noober were placed ;)

    I always made a note when I passed through Nashkel to spit on the dirt there so they'd never forget me.

    Durlags tower, because it's immense and a challenge.
    Sylvus, how can you not like a character who is mad and carries a giant space hamster? And has some of the best quotes in the game too :)

    MINSC WAS LAME in BG1. His stupid Space Hamster? Give me a break! The comments he made were annoying and he never shut up. He's much better in BG2, although his stupid hamster is really getting on my nerves when it squeeks or Minsc says something "Boo! We will kick evil with our boot!" Who cares about Boo.

    What's getting me even more TICKED is that stupid HABIB character that throws shit at me and runs away.

    "I am Habib and I come long way across the desert on my camel eating camel shit and I throw my gold at you!"

    If I ever catch him...

    [​IMG] Minsc is cool, Boo is cute, Habib is funny, and Syl lacks a sense of humour/is uptight!

    :p

    Who is this Habib that you're going on about?? And I agree, Minsc has one of the better personalities in BG, not to mention that he's great with a bow.

    L'Israe you having a bit of double-posting fun there? :)
    I've deleted all your double messages.

    P.S.
    Habib is the NPC that the guy who won the "Enter your NPC in BG2" competition Interplay had a few months ago got to submit to Bioware and they included him in the game.

    My lord, that must be the most incomprehensible sentence I've written in my life. :cool:

    [​IMG] I like Bereghost best. You get to know the place after burglarizing every single house in town, and you find some interesting items in seemingly normal houses. I like the bottom left side with the Jovial Juggler and the Thunderhammer smithy.

    [​IMG] Beregost was one of my favorite places. its a great place to pick up some X.P., gold and even a NPC or two. Kagain's store is the spot. if i didn't use him, i would kill him and use his store as a stash spot. great place for this, there were plenty of 'containers' to leave items in.

    [​IMG] Beregost cause' it's a good place to loot, Thalynter's house and Sorcerous Sundries because of the cool graphics, and Ulcaster just because it's creepy.
