Playing a monk: It takes a very long time to get tough. I didn't feel as if I had caught up with fighter types until level 15. But boy oh boy, when you do get to that level and beyond, monks are to my mind the best fighters (plus some other nifty abilities) in the game. At the end, my Lev 20 monk was was doing more damage than Valygar dual-wielding Crom Faeyr and Celestial Fury. Was it worth all that wait? I guess so.
Most annoying battle: Kangaxx.
Best NPC: I surprised even myself. I loved the NPC's. For me it was the highlight of the game as I went through every one save for Haer D'alis. At the end, I have to say it was Edwin/Edwina. He started off as such an obnoxious and arrogant cad, but the chance to Edwina (the better half, *grin*) with the Nether Scroll made for some hilarious moments throughout the rest of the game.
Best Battle: Fighting furiously against the horde of Beholders in the Underdark. Spells and effects flying everywhere!
