The CD's would have been little puddles of burning plastic long before the end of the game had I tried to do the whole adventure with him. In contrast, I thought that almost all the voices and dialogue in Wizardry 8 were absolutely superb and really did enrich the game.To doubt everything or to believe everything are two equally convenient solutions; both dispense with the necessity of reflection.

BG without minsc is sin!
his 2 handed +5 sword skillz are just too good
the most useless character in BG2 must be Aerie though
in fact my spellcasters as the ****ties chars in the game, them pussies die too easily, and i also hate sleeping all the time to regain spells
lol it took me 4 BG2 days to complete the first 3 chapters LOL, and i did all the sidequest i could find...
of course, my invisible dual wielding (scimitars) ranger with boots of speed cleared most levels, got some backup from minsc sometimes too, and my spellcasters... well they were for those instances that you needed them (like special quests, or when killing that Lich near the gates for example (in the tavern))
and of course a thief for backstabbing wizzies and removing traps
i bet i could solo the game with a fighter/thief/mage

I find that spellcasters are absolutely crucial for the big battles. It's a nightmare to beat dragons without magical backup, I find.Comment

BG without Minsc
.
How could you?! He had all the funniest lines. It would not have been anywhere near the same without him!“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

What's the generally accepted wisdom on what a mage should put into their Contingency and Sequencer (Minor atm)?The church is the only organisation that exists for the benefit of its non-members
Buy your very own 4-dimensional, non-orientable, 1-sided, zero-edged, zero-volume, genus 1 manifold immersed in 3-space!

Minsc is overrated, there are many others that are just as interesting and most importantly not as annoying!It's candy. Surely there are more important things the NAACP could be boycotting. If the candy were shaped like a burning cross or a black man made of regular chocolate being dragged behind a truck made of white chocolate I could understand the outrage and would share it. - DrosedarsComment

...particulary when you roll them all up yourself. Nice balanced characters with a desire to get the job done

Minsc and Lilacor are the best NPC's in the game!!
maybe imoen but she is a wimp.
As for sequencers I never used them. I had a sorcerer and I picked those spells but never got around to using them. With the robe of vecna and some other items I casted spells superfast.
Taking on dragons and some of the tougher golems without my sorcerer would be near impossible. Same thing with some of those tough demons in the expansion at the end. But I found regular mages weren't as useful. My sorcerer easily carried the load.Comment

Ok, how about contingency?The church is the only organisation that exists for the benefit of its non-members

same with contingency
but if your mage/sorcerer is dying a lot, contingency with stoneskin would help. I kept meaning to do that, but I always forgot to cast continency anyways. My sorcerer rarely died.Comment

Contingency was cool when you remembered to set it up in advance. The sequencers I only found helpful when I knew what opponents were coming up. Most of the time that only happens if you mess up and have to reload.To doubt everything or to believe everything are two equally convenient solutions; both dispense with the necessity of reflection.

I'm way late to this, but wasn't Edwin evil?"In Italy for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed. But they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love. They had 500 years of democracy and peace. And what did that produce? The cuckoo clock."

yes he is evil
but also probably the strongest mage in the game (next to me of course)Comment
