Errr, ahem.

Saravok is the best NPC in the game, if used right.

I was soloing a half-orc Priest of Helm, and decided to include Sarevok when hitting ToB. Dualled him to a thief, pounded a few baddies and then HELLO! After Sarry got 'Use Any Item' I gave him Carsomyr +6, which is far and away the best weapon a +5 two-handed swordswinger can bring to the game (distant seconds are the Sword of Grief and the Psion Blade). Sarevok is definitely The Man when it comes to combat--a true monster. His 'Deathbringer Assault' is a gas.

With the traps ability and the right equipment, Sarevok can almost handle the game by hisself. He cuts through baddies like a hot knife thru butter...my juggernaut o jestruction.

Definitely the best NPC. This duo took out Melissan with nary a scratch, and that's all five levels. Nothing but BAM and set traps and BAM and set more traps and BAM, etc. That wimpy goddess wannabe never had a chance.

(toughest moment was...none! this duo kicked so much butt I had to replay some scenarios simply to max out the XPs...if there has to be a 'toughest boss' then that would be the improved Demogorgon. Still mere wheat before the scythe)

Sarevok.

Accept no substitutes.
