This thread is made so that everyone gets to post something that they think others should know about Bg2. Ill post the first one, then someone else can ost number 2 and so on and so on. Yes some may be spoilers, but I want to see what everyone thinks is important and all.

1.Niether Irenicus and your mian charecter are gods. Kagnaxx is.

Magic is mightier than metal.

Kangaxx is a demi-lich, neither a god or higher deneity IIRC.

there is to much that people should know about of BG II... but we will see how this thread will work out :D

Boo is a hampster and Minsc is not

He wants to say that Kangaxx is powerful. But he is sooo laaame when you know the tactic.

Talking does not involve smacking the NPC across the map.

okay without the cheese he is powerfull... but he will never become a god.

- Ring of Gaxx it THEY most powerfull ring in the game thats for sure...
- The most cool and funniest NPC would be ''BOO the Space hamster'' :D
- Solo Sorcerer is pure CHEESE if played correctly.

What is so cheesy with him? When he turns to demilich, you turn to Slayer.

BTW, everyone should know to spell these names:
BODHI
FIRKRAAG
DRIZZT
KANGAXX
KAZA (not Kazaa ;) )
SULDANESSELAR
THAXLL'SSILLYIA :D
...

I think the ring of gaxx is really powerfull though... okay it would be nice with some extra spell enchanments but he!.. you can't have everything (maybe with the use of SK you can though :D )

The kagnaxx thing was a joke. Before I got the internet it took me a gajillion trys to kill him.

never mind me Arias.... got myself in a little dip so... I was being hard on you [img]graemlins/blush.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img]

All my efforts down the drain...
;)

ROFL!!! ahaha

ROFL!!! ahaha</font>[/QUOTE]okay.. I'm pretty new to the concept of Forums but what is ROFL again and things like ihmo?

LOL = Laughing Out Loud
ROFL = Rolling On Floor Laughing
ROFLMAO = Rolling On Floor Laughing My Ass Off
IMO = In My Opinion
IMHO = In My Humble Opinion
IIRC = If I [ Remember / Recall ] Correctly
AFAIK = As Far As I Know

These are the most common ones. The Sticky thread also contains some. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yo! Who is K A Z A ?

Cangaks is a Jam-Roly-Poly!

Oh, and uhmm.... things you should know:

Irenicus is bald,
And so are you!"

Of course it is a typo, but I couldn't help myself... Sorry.

No, sorry its not a typo, that was sarcasm. I really didnt pay you any attention. Sorry. I thaught it was spelt that way.....

I haven´t yet seen anyone spelling thaxll´sillyia correctly. Maybe because it's easier to just say Shadow Dragon.

A fact - Bodhi is a very attractive woman... expect your eyes to be nailed to the screen when you see her. Now why don't you believe me?

Can't argue there, Bodhi does indeed look pretty good in the lyatard (sp?) thing.

Bodhi shops @ Bruce and Valerie's SpandexWear, Spandex Bodysuits, Catsuits, ...

where do you find such a ''things'' dude serious :D ... LOL

Well it's SPANDEX man! Can't live without it.

Cheeze (worse than a spoiler warning)

Everyone can really use scrolls, it is a lie if they tell you otherwise. All you need is a potion and the scroll. Pause, drink potion, switch the scroll to where the potion was and voila. so...Minsc blowing himself up with fireball, or not as it would do 0D10 damage.

For some reason even the elves who never leave home speak common, and some underdark people also do, despite teh lack of surface contact.

It's an old trick, from the days of BG1...

Any character with INT score above 1 can learn at least one language beside his native one.
-duergar - learned common for trade purposes
-svirfneblin - learned it so they could communicate with their Lady Adalon :D
-elves - learnt common just for this occasion, so they could communicate with the Bhaalspawn :D

aren't duergar and svirfneblin the same? plz correct me if I'm wrong..

Duergar are the dwarven equivilant of drow and elves (ie evil, but same species), whilst the svirfnebli are the deep gnomes.

SOME MORE THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT BG2:

- It's not your fault that Imoen got taken away.
- Don't piss off the Shadow Thieves in Chapter 2.
- Killing a Merchant does NOT mean you can loot all the gear he had for sale.
- A +2 weapon that adds a point of Cold damage to each hit is pure crap now.
- Trying to learn all the spells will drive you nuts. You don't believe me, just ask my therapist.
- You WILL have bugs in your game.
- If your your party includes Anomen, Edwin, Jaheira, or Viconia, you will have even MORE bugs.
- Try to keep all of your excess gear stored in roughly the same place, and INDOORS.

No matter how many good deeds you do or how hard you work to please people, nobody likes you. Need proof?

- You can get attacked in a bar by anything ranging from a Red Dragon to a small halfling child and no-one will bat an eyelid. On the other hand, accidentally kill even the most evil and unpopular member of the public and expect the whole Amnian army to turn up to arrest you.
- You can drag your dying, bloodied and battered carcass to the most charitable priest in the land, and he'll STILL expect you to fork over a huge wodge of dough before he'll lift a finger to help you. In fact, sometimes he'll ask for many payments in instalments.
- No-one anywhere - even close friends - will lend you any money ever. 1gp away from buying that fab new magic Sword of Destroying Everything? Expect to have to forcefully seperate some tightwad from his cash, or have to do some pointless FEDEX work. Either that, or pawn your hard-won belogings for a measly return.
- Even the most cowardly mugger will open fire with his deadliest weapons with intent to kill you on sight. No chance of surrender, or even giving him 50gp to sod off. He'll go for your throat.
- Enemies several screens away from you besieging towns you happen to be in will use vast, inaccurate siege catapults with the express intent of aiming for YOU every time! Hit the walls? What an outlandish concept!
- Everyone you try to kill will do their level best to use up every potion they've got - pointlessly - rather than let you have it. The embittered scum.

All in all, it's a harsh world and everyone's gunning for you. Better get used to it.

Amen brother, amen...

Aiii...
At least I didn't say Suulodenisarr :D .
