One thing that the Kelsey-Imoen romance brings about, is the ill-timing of dialogues. Most of the time, these interruptions occur during battles, which is of course annoying since it hardly makes sense, and it disrupts the flow of combat.
At other times, it becomes surreal.
Such as this time, when Imoen felt it was more important to flirt with Kelsey, instead of... say, warning Rena of the impending
fireball of doom above her.

Sarevok's first Deathbringer Assault was, appropriately enough, inflicted upon the traitor of Saradush,
Kiser Jhaeri. This particular screenshot was also amusing in that the AI of both Minsc and Sarevok, decided to use Potions of Firebreath on Kiser. I can only imagine the party cheering, "Burn, you bas****! BURN!"

During a fight with Gromnir's cronies in the upper levels, Rena scored her current
personal best on one of them.
At the moment, Rena is alternating between the Dagger of the Stars(DotS) and the Staff of Ram(+6) for backstabbing purposes. The chance to go invisible from using the DotS is lovely, but unfortunately, the chance of it triggering is pretty low( 15%).

The battle with Gromnir can be best described in the following modified Football Quote,
Quote:
Baldur's Gate 2 is about a party of adventurers swinging swords and casting spells, and at the end of the fight, the Sorcerer has killed everything.

This battle marked the first time Kelsey unleashed the full potential of the PRATI sequence. For those not in the know, PRATI stands for,
Project Image +
Robe of Vecna +
Amulet of Power +
Time Stop +
Improved Alacrity
For the battle with Gromnir, I chose to manually control Kelsey, and left the rest of the party to the devices of their AI Scripts.
Shortly after the Time Stop ended, the battleground looked like
this.
A split second later, the
ADHWs spreaded out and killed many things.
Another split second later, Gromnir was
pleading for help.
And voila, before the ADHWs had even dissipated, Imoen
stole the kill from Rena. Rena is not happy.
