Is it just my game or do others have this problem as well?

MY game seem to have long since stopped registering my "most powerful foe vanquished" stat. My characters "most..... " list is as follows:

Ice golem, sherincal, ....etc

Since those kills, i have popped the "guardian", a particular "dreadmaster of Bane", an improved invisible "prisoner", "Rakasha M$#^&", not to mention various deadly undead. The only recent kill i noticed was an "iron golem".

Is that stat based upon EXP earned?

Mabye Exp... I think it has to do with How powerful your characer is compared to what they slay. A level 30 Barbarian slaying Shrenical might not be as impressive to the game as a level 2 paladin killing a Worg Rider... I think there is a formula that involes a division sign...

Yeah, "most powerful vanquished" is relative to your level at the moment you kill something. So after awhile, it could be a long time before that changes. Annoying, huh?

My Barbarian's most powerfull vanquished ennemy has long been the "deadly and infamous" support beam...

LMAO Luvian! And I thought the Guardian was challenging [img]smile.gif[/img]
No but seriously, I think there could be a bug with some versions, at my final battle save I checked my chars and they all stopped around Ice Golems and chapter 3/4 monsters...so maybe some versions are bugged?

Dont think so... Ice golem is 2 of my characters' Most Powerful Vanquished. Which is REALLY sad considering they have gone through the game and then HoF as well. [img]smile.gif[/img] It was apparently a VERY traumatic time in there lives and everything else seems easier. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Well... I think its based upon on how long you battled the creature and how much experience you got. When I was playing BG2:SoA
(Baldur's Gate 2: Shadows of Amn), I killed a Red Dragon and it was my most powerful monster beaten since then. In Icewind Dale 2, I killed two White/Silver Dragons in the River Caves and it was my most powerful enemy vanquished since then.

My druid had a long and a tough fight with the support beam and since that it has been the MPV for her.

HAHAHAHAHAHAH! I love the Dreaded and Feared Support Beam stories! That thing had a LOT of hit points... even more so in HoF.

Nightowl2 11-03-2002 05:59 PM

Yeah, those support beams are some of the most feared monsters in the game. Only the indestructible HOG kegs can match them ;)

(Well, unless you have Kegsplitter....)

Still, it's crazy to include inanimate objects with the monsters.
