What is your 1. most favorite, and 2. most despised monster?
Mine...

1. favorite is ogre ("Me will crush you! Crush you to goo!")
lol...
2. most despised is ogre mage (MASSIVE superiority complex).

You don't like to make things easy do you? Ok I have 2 favorites, so there!!
Favorite(s):
1.Ogre Mage (the only remotely challenging creature in BG1 - the ToTSC)
2.Gibberlings (and most other small critters that charge blindly to their own demise)

Most disliked? Umm.... Sirens (2 words: Dire Charm)

Well I like the fights against human parties best but if it HAS to be a monster

favorite: Ankheg - good fight, good loot
despised: Basilisk - aaaaaaaaaaaaah not petrified again

I think i have to agree with Faceman about the basilisks. I dont know what my most fav is but Basilisks are just F*ckin annoyin!!!!! and then u kill like 5 and find that one of them dropped a scroll of protection from petrification. Nice!!

i have a few favorites because of what they say when they attack:
Xvarts-"Attack"
Dopplegangers-"it is useless to resist" and "your time is done"
Gibberlings-cause it's funny watching them run on all fours like an ape

least favorite:
basalisks
ghasts
phase spiders(why cant they stay in one spot!LOL)

Favorite is sword spider. How cool are they.
Most disliked is definately either basilisk or siren. I can't decide whether dire charm or petrification is worse

Fav - Basilisks - Great exp, fun to kill, and they look cool ^_^

Least Fav - Wolves - I dont like hurting the wolves :(

well, for me,
Greater Basilisk is both favorite and despised,.
favorite for it gives healthy and easy XP, despised for if taken its petrifying ability away (one lvl 2 mage spell can take care of that), it's nothing, yet killing it gives 7000 XP!!!! Ankheg is much tougher to kill, but how much XP you get?

a side note, the most feared for me, the wolves just outside the candlekeep.

Basilisks are easy kills IF you know they're there. IF I do I like them: cast PfP and charge but what annoys me is when I wander around minding my own business and suddenly Minsc is a statue :D Being ambushed by a basilisk is not realy extra nice :D

ok...after the first encounter with them, you'll know when they're around...basilisks make certain unique sound, it's loud and clear while they're still out of sight. Whenever I heard the sound, pfp, and go haunting for easy and healthy XP :D
